1. Introduction

The S16 Digital Snake is a 16-in, 8-out stagebox that features AES50 networking
with KLARK TEKNIK SuperMac technology. Designed with multiple scenarios in
mind, the S16 works equally well as a stand-alone pair for use with analog mixing
consoles, or as part of the trio of BEHRINGER’s digital mixing solution along with
the X32 digital mixer and P16 personal monitoring system.

The 16 MIDAS-designed XLR inputs are fully programmable and remote­controllable from the X32. 8 balanced XLR outputs provide ample sends to
the stage for mains and monitoring. The front panel also allows the level and
phantom power to be controlled for all inputs and outputs, accompanied by
an 8-LED meter and 7-segment display. The currently selected channel can be
monitored via ¼" headphone jack with level control.

2. Callouts

Dual AES50 jacks allow transmission of all audio and MIDI data to the FOH X32
with a single Ethernet cable, and also allow up to 3 S16s to be cascaded for
maximum channel count. In this scenario, 48 bidirectional audio channels at
24-bit / 48 kHz can be transferred on just one CAT5 line between FOH and stage,
including 48 analog inputs from stage, 24 analog outputs on stage as well as the
16 Ultranet channels, MIDI data and head amp remote control.

An additional Ultranet output provides the 16 channels for use with BEHRINGER’s
P16 personal monitoring system via Ethernet cable, allowing each musician
to dial in their own custom mix from the stage. A pair of ADAT ports can carry
additional sends to the stage beyond the 8 analog outputs, or split the 16 inputs.
Lastly, a USB jack allows for future rmware updates.
