<h1>Focusrite RedNet D16R MkII - 16x16 AES3 I/O Dante Interface</h1>
<i>RedNet D16R MkII is a 16x16 AES3 interface — ideal for interfacing between digital audio equipment such as consoles and power amplifiers, and a Dante network.</i><br /><br />
Focusrite <span style="background-color: initial;">RedNet D16R MkII is a 16-channel bi-directional AES3 interface for Dante® networks. The 1U rackmount device features individual input and output channel level controls, allowing for precise calibration and control of all input and output levels using RedNet Control. RedNet D16R MkII features power supply and Ethernet redundancy with auto switchover in case of failure.<br /><br /></span><span style="background-color: initial;">Various connection options make RedNet D16R MkII a flexible addition to any Audio-over-IP system. A pair of DB25 multipin connectors each connect eight channels of AES3 I/O into and out of the interface, while XLR and RCA ports enable two-channel AES3 and S/PDIF connections, respectively, to be made.<br /><br /></span><span style="background-color: initial;">Sample rate conversion on every input enables external equipment to operate at different sample rates, and DARS signals are accepted on the XLR connector. Word Clock I/O on BNC connectors allows synchronisation to house clock, or syncing external equipment to the Dante network.</span><span style="background-color: initial;"> </span><span style="background-color: initial;"><br /></span><br />
