The Aviom AN-16/i Input Module provides sixteen channels of analog-to-digital conversion as the head end for the Pro16 Monitor Mixing System and modular digital snake. The module converts sixteen line-level analog audio channels into uncompressed 24-bit, 48kHz digital audio data. Digital audio data is output on standard Cat-5e cables via Aviom"s A-Net Pro16 digital audio protocol. The AN-16/i front panel has eight four position gain switches, stereo channel link switches for every channel pair and per-channel signal present and clip LEDs. Digital network connections include one A-Net Out jack and one A-Net Expansion jack for use in 32- channel systems. The rear panel of the AN-16/i features 16 analog audio inputs with balanced ¼" TRS jacks. An audio Thru jack for each input allows the AN-16/i to be inserted seamlessly into an existing audio signal path. The AN-16/i can be used with any line-level analog audio input, from a CD player to console direct outs, inserts, or aux sends. Aviom"s modular Pro16 digital snake and audio distribution system supports a range of flexible configurations: 16x0, 32x0, 48x0, 64x0, 16x16, 32x16, 32x32 and 48x16. All configurations support an unlimited number of digital splits, with no loss in audio quality.
