Glensound DARK1616 DANTE / AES67 Audio Network 16 Input / 16 Output AES & Analog Break Out Box

The DARK1616 is a versatile break in/ out box for sending/ receiving both analog and digital (AES3) audio to/ from a network utilizing the Dante audio over IP (AoIP) protocol. In total there are 16 channels of audio sent from the Dark1616 into the newtork. The Dark1616 has 8 off AES3 inputs and 16 off analog inputs, the AES3 inputs take priority over the analog (if an AES3 input is receiving a valid AES3 signal then it will turn off the equivalent analog input pair and route its output to the network). Simultaneously there are 16 channels of audio being received from the network by the Dark1616 and these incoming circuits are provided as outputs from the Dark1616 in both AES3 and analogue. The AES3 inputs have sample rate converters on them and can accept input frequencies up to 192kHz, the incoming AES3 circuit is always sample rate converted to match the Dante newtork frequency. The AES3 outputs are locked to the sample frequency of the Dante network. For ease of cabling audio I/O is
