SONIFEX AVN-AI16 DANTE AUDIO INTERFACE 16x analogue XLR inputs, Dante, 1U

AVN-AIO4

This audio interface enables the user to convert up to four balanced analogue audio input signals and up to four analogue audio output signals into a single bi-directional Dante connection. AIO4 is ‘AES67 operation and Dante Domain Manager compliant’ and setup can be facilitated by using Audinate’s free to download Dante Controller (https://www.audinate.com/products/software/dante-controller).

The front facing panel of the unit has three LEDs which illuminate when either Clock sync, Link, or PoE is detected. There is also an adjustable global 0dBFS line up selection toggle offering +12/+18/+24dBu. A recessed ‘Reset’ button allows the user to restart data communication if any errors occur. The rear facing panel houses all I/O connectivity including four balanced 3-pin Neutrik XLR inputs, four balanced 3-pin Neutrik XLR outputs, and a single RJ45 Ethernet Dante I/O connector.

Input impedance: Greater than 20kohm, balanced. Output impedance: Less than 50ohm balanced. 0dBFS line-up: +18dBu balanced. Frequency response: 20Hz to 20kHz, 600ohm load, 1kHz reference. THD+N: Less than -110dBFS, -30dBFS, 20Hz to 20kHz, 20kHz BW. Input noise: -110dBFS, 20kHz BW. Output noise: -100dBFS, 20kHz BW. Crosstalk: Less than -100dB, input; less than 100dB, output. Sample rates: 44.1/48/88.2/96kHz. Encoding: PCM 16/24/32. Dimensions (WxDxH): 48 x 11 x 4.3cm. Weight: 0.9kg.

AVN-AIO8

This interface the same functionality as the AVN-AIO4 however is has twice the number of analogue inputs and outputs, therefore a total of eight balanced 3-pin Neutrik XLR inputs, eight balanced 3-pin Neutrik XLR outputs, and a single RJ45 Ethernet Dante I/O connector. Power is also by PoE.

Input impedance: Greater than 20kohm, balanced. Output impedance: Less than 50ohm balanced. 0dBFS line-up: User selectable +12dBu/+18dBu/+24dBu balanced. Frequency response: 20Hz to 20kHz, 600ohm load, 1kHz reference. THD+N: Less than -110dBFS, -30dBFS, 20Hz to 20kHz, 20kHz BW. Input noise: -110dBFS, 20kHz BW. Output noise: -107dBFS, 20kHz BW. Crosstalk: Less than -100dB, input; less than 100dB, output. Sample rates: 44.1/48/88.2/96/176.4/192kHz. Encoding: PCM 16/24/32. Dimensions (WxDxH): 48 x 11 x 4.3cm. Weight: 1.1kg.

AVN-AIO8R

This audio interface has the functionality and connectivity of the AVN-AIO8, however it has a total of two Dante connections giving the ability for redundancy.

AVN-AO16

This interface is analogue output only, with audio input via Dante. A total of 16-channels of audio output can be simultaneously connected to the balanced 3-pin Neutrik XLR outputs. LED indicators on the front facing panel allow the user to quickly identify PoE, Link and Clock statuses. All connectivity including single RJ45 Dante input and analogue audio outputs are positioned on the rear facing panel. The interface is powered via PoE.

Output impedance: less than 50ohm balanced. 0dBFS line-up: +18dBu balanced. Frequency response: 20Hz to 20kHz, +0/-0.5dB, 600ohm load, 1kHz reference. THD+N: Less than -107dBFS, -30dBFS, 20Hz to 20kHz, 20kHz BW. Noise: -107dBFS, 20kHz BW. Crosstalk: Less than 100dB. Sample rates: 44.1/48/88.2/96/176.4/192kHz. Encoding: PCM 16/24/32. Dimensions (WxDxH): 48 x 11 x 4.3cm. Weight: 1.1kg.

AVN-AO16R

This audio interface has the functionality and connectivity of the AVN-AO16, however it has a total of two Dante connections giving the ability for redundancy.

AVN-AESIO8

Similar to the AVN-IO analogue products, the AVN-AESIO is an interface for bi-drectional audio with 8 inputs and 8 outputs. The main difference is that the input and output stage is digital stereo AES3 via 3-pin XLR connectors, with each input compatible with 32-192kHz sample rates. The sample rate is then converted to Dante protocol and sample rate. LED indicators on the front facing panel allow the user to quickly identify PoE, Link and Clock status. All connectivity including single RJ45 Dante output and digital audio inputs/outputs are positioned on the rear facing panel. The interface is powered via PoE.

Impedance: 110ohm balanced, input; 110ohm balanced, output. Signal level: AES3-2009 compliant. Bit depth: Up to 24bits, input; 24bits, output. Sample rates: 44.1/48/88.2/96/176.4/192kHz. AES67 support: Yes. Format: Linear PCM, 16/24/32bit. Spped: 1Gbps or 100Mbps. Dimensions (WxDxH): 48 x 11 x 4.3cm. Weight: 1.0kg.
