<h1>Focusrite RedNet A8R - 8 Channel Analog I/O</h1>
<i>8 x 8 Analog I/O for Dante audio-over-IP systems</i><br /><br />
Focusrite RedNet A8R is a 1U, 8x8 analogue line-level I/O interface for any Dante audio-over-IP network. Featuring network and power supply redundancy, RedNet A8R is the ideal choice for providing analogue I/O in many critical-path applications, whether in Post Production, Broadcast, Live Sound or the Recording Studio.
<br /><br />
High-quality conversion with up to 119dB of dynamic range is provided through two rear-panel DB25 connectors while an additional pair of AES3 I/O is provided through male and female XLR for added flexibility. Word Clock I/O on BNC connectors allows external devices to clock to RedNet A8R, or alternatively allows RedNet A8R to act as a network clock grand master slaved to external input. Power is supplied through a pair of locking IEC power inlets, and network connections are provided with a pair of locking Neutrik etherCON connectors; providing redundant operation or daisy-chained operation.

<h2>Rednet Audio-Over-IP</h2>
	Leveraging the flexibility of Dante™, Focusrite's audio-over-IP devices deliver a modular approach to building up your audio solution, whether for Post Production, Broadcast, Live Sound or the Recording Studio. The range includes our finest remote-controlled mic pres, best conversion and a wide selection of PC interfacing options.
<br /><br />
RedNet interfaces offer a selection of dedicated audio-over-IP interfaces including MADI, AES3, analog, remote mic pres, and include options for redundant power supplies and network connections. Red interfaces offer an all-in-one audio solution including 32x32 of Dante I/O combined with Pro Tools | HD™ connectivity and the latest Thunderbolt interfacing technology. Many of our interfaces are also AES67 compliant; please visit a product page for further information.
<br /><br />
All of our audio-over-IP devices are compatible with a standard layer-3 IP network; in fact it's likely that nearly every facility already has a compatible infrastructure. Just add Ethernet cable and a network switch to build up your audio network
