The AN-16/i converts sixteen line-level analog
audio channels into uncompressed, full bandwidth 24-bit digital data transmitted
via Aviom's proprietary A-Net protocol. A dedicated audio Thru is available for
each input channel, allowing the AN-16/i Input Module to be inserted into an
existing audio signal path.
The AN-16/i has sixteen balanced audio inputs (1/4-inch TRS or Euroblocks).
The AN-16/i can be connected with Cat-5e cable to any of Aviom's Personal Mixer
products, including the A-16II, the original A-16, or the rack-mounted A-16R to
create a monitor system. Its A-Net Out can optionally be connected to the A-16D
or A-16D Pro A-Net Distributor for easy digital signal distribution in a monitor
system.
Digital Snakes
When coupled with the AN-16/o Output Module, the AN-16/i and AN-16/o create a
powerful digital snake and audio network, capable of transferring up to 64
channels of high quality 24-bit audio digitally over standard, inexpensive
Cat-5e cables. But, unlike a traditional analog audio snake, the AN-Series of
products allows you to expand audio distribution at both ends of the snake to
suit a variety of audio distribution requirements. It's a snake, it's an
infinite splitter, and more.
On the front panel, the AN-16/i has a four-position Input Level switch (+22, +4,
0dBu, and -10dBv), stereo channel link switches, as well as signal present and
clip LEDs.
The rear panel of the AN-16/i has two rows of sixteen 1/4'' TRS jacks for analog
audio Input and Thru. The Euroblock (-EB) version of the AN-16/i has a single
row of terminal blocks that serve both functions.
For system-wide digital network connections, there is an A-Net Out jack and an
A-Net Expansion jack. The A-Net Expansion jack allows up to four AN-16/i and
AN-16/o units to be combined to create a 32-channel snake that uses only one
Cat-5e cable. The modular system is easily reconfigured at a moment's notice.
By adding the optional AN-16SB System Bridge, up to 64 channels of audio can be
transferred over a single Cat-5e cable in a variety of digital snake
configurations.
Long Distance A-Net
Fiber-optic technology can be used for digital snake applications that require
cable distances that exceed the A-Net maximum length of 500 feet (150 meters)
between devices.
