Aviom’s A-Net® Distributors, the
A-1 6D and A-16D Pro, provide
support for parallel connections
of multiple Pro16™ devices. Each
accepts one A-Net input and provides
eight identical A-Net outputs using
standard Cat-5e cables.
The 2U A-16 D Pro is powered by an
internal switching power supply,
with a detachable power cord and
IEC power inlet on the rear panel.
Isolated (oating ground) DC power
is supplied to eight A-Net outputs for
providing remote power via Cat-5e
to Pro16 Personal Mixers. A single
unpowered A-Net Thru is provided
for daisy-chaining additional A-Net
Distributors or other Pro16 devices,
such as the AN-16/o Output Module.
All network connections on the A-16D
Pro use heavy duty locking Neutrik®
EtherCon® connectors.

Inside the A-16D Pro is Aviom’s
unique power sub-system, which
virtually eliminates the possibility of
introducing hum or ground loops into
an audio system.
Alternatively, the half-rack space
A-16D is powered by an external DC
power supply and provides remote
power over A-Net on a per-jack basis,
using optional external DC power
supplies. A-Net network connections
use standard RJ45 jacks.
The A-16D is a cost-effective method
for distributing A-Net and power to
Personal Mixers, providing redundant
cable runs to back-up modules, or
refreshing an A-Net signal where
cable runs exceed 500ft/150m.
An unlimited number of Distributors
can be used in an A-Net network.
