6 416dio
Digital I/O Module
The 6416dio Digital I/O Module provides
sixteen channels of digital inputs and
outputs to and from a Pro64® A-Net® audio
network in a single 2U package, using the
AES3 format. With exceptional clock performance, the 6416dio meets the needs of
digital console and workstation users in a
range of applications.
The input and output sections of the
6416dio module can be independently
con gured to operate within a speci ed
16-channel A-Net Slot range for maximum
versatility. Input and output port assignments for Manual Mode are also independently con gurable. Each channel of a
6416dio can be made active on the Pro64
audio network as needed.
The 6416dio supports all valid Pro64
system sample rates, from 44.1/48kHz± to
192kHz±. Regardless of the sample rate
of incoming digital audio, no sample
rate converters are used, guaranteeing
pristine distribution of the digital
signal without perceptible latency.
The 6416dio can clock to the module’s
internal clock, the distributed network
clock, an AES3 digital input, or an
external Word Clock. The selected clock
is output locally through Word Clock Out,
as well as embedded in the AES3 outputs.
If the 6416dio is the Pro64 network Clock
Master, the selected clock is also distributed throughout the Pro64 network over
A-Net, using Aviom’s revolutionary clock
dejitter algorithms.
The 6416dio is available with either BNC
or DB25 multipin connectors for audio I/O.
DB25 connectors for both the Digidesign®/
Tascam® and Yamaha® compatible pinouts
are provided.
The 6416dio also includes I/O for Aviom’s
innovative Virtual Data Cables™. The VDCs
can be used for simultaneously distributing up to 14 channels of non-audio control
data to any device on the Pro64 network.
The 6416dio provides VDC connectors for
RS-232 or RS-422, as well as GPIO.
The 6416dio is compatible with all Pro64
Series products, allowing sophisticated
audio networking systems to be designed,
scaled, and expanded as needed.
