The AN-16/o v.4 Output Module is a 1U rack-mount 16-channel digital-to-analog converter for Pro16® digital snake and audio distribution systems. Digital audio transmitted to the AN-16/o v.4 via Aviom's A-Net® Pro16 digital audio transmission protocol is converted to analog using 24-bit 48kHz converters. Sixteen balanced outputs are provided on the rear panel via DB25 multipin connectors. The analog outputs can be set (per channel pair) to +24dBu +18dBu +4dBu or mic level.

Use the AN-16/o anywhere analog outputs are required: on stage or FOH in a digital snake in the studio for a recording split or in even the most complex audio networks. Adding a digital split to a system is as simple as connecting an additional AN-16/o v.4 Output Module.

Features:

16 balanced mic- or line-level outputs

Four-position output level switch per channel pair

+24 +18 and +4dBu line-level or mic-level outputs

48kHz 24-bit D/A converters

Unlimited splits and digital copies
