The first, AUDIO IN, female XLR type for 9 balanced audio inputs. The panel includes 8 link
switches for routing audio from inputs to outputs. By the use of the switches one unique audio
signal can be routed to all ethercon outputs (per example).
The second, AUDIO / DASNET OUT, Neutrik etherCon type to distribute audio and
monitoring data to the different groups of self powered cabinets, 9 DASnet output connectors.
Finally we have the RS-485 connectors, which allow us to join several matrix to form a
network with RS-485 protocol. Between the connectors the end-of-line switch is observed.

On the rear panel, using a power cable, the DASNET-MATRIX99 will be connected to the Schuko
Auxiliary output of the DISTRO-RACKNET-32-9. This cable has a Neutrik connector type PowerCon
True1 at one end and an F type (CEE 7/7) plug at the other. In addition, we have 9 balanced audio
outputs that are in parallel with the inputs.
Manual del Usuario / DASNET-RACK99-230 / User’s Manual

Internally, each DASNET-MATRIX99 has an RS-485 repeater that is directly connected after
the RS-485 input. The repeater allows having larger distances of cabling in the network and a
much higher number of devices without loosing capabilities.
The DASNET-MATRIX99 is an ideal solution for audio and monitoring data distribution in self
powered cabinets that include DASnet: AERO-20A, AERO-40A, UX-221A, UX-30A, UX-218A, UX-218A-R, LX-218CA-NET, ROAD-12A-NET, ROAD-15A-NET, etc.
There is a termination resistor which can
be activated with a sw itc h. It is
recommendable to engage it in the first and
last matrix of the network to increase
network stability.
With this system, ideal solution for
touring, we can link a maximum number of
144 devices, with a maximum total length
of the DASnet data cable should not
exceed 1000 meters (counting both XLR
data cables and ecp_xx CAT 7 cables).

provided by DAS Audio with every system

has to be connected to the DASNET-MATRIX99 using the IN RS-485 connector.

On the other hand, the DASNET-MATRIX99 offers flexible routing with switches on the front
panel that allow you to mount an audio input to several outputs. The nine audio inputs can be
linked directly to their corresponding ethercon outputs. In addition, a single audio input can be
linked to all ethercon outputs by using the switches.
That is, if you look at the figure below, we have linked the inputs 1 with 2 on one side and 2
with 3 on the other. With this, it is enough to enter audio through connector 1 to output that
signal through all the connected output connectors: 1, 2 and 3, both ethercon on the front,
and XLR on the rear.
With this system, we can send a signal to all the equipment (linking all the outputs with the
input 1) or create several zones with different signal sends.

As we have indicated the DASNET-RACK99-230 allows a power distribution of up to 32Amp
per phase (three-phase). Every 3 outputs of the DISTRO-RACKNET-32-9 of power are connected
to a single phase. This means that of each group of 3 PowerCon True 1 connectors, the
maximum available current is 32A.
The user must always consider the power consumption of the equipment (specified at 1/3
of the nominal power with pink noise) connected to each output and DO NOT exceed the limit
of 32A for each group of 3 PowerCon outputs.

ANNEX II : DASnet cables
It is very important to use the system with the intended cables to prevent electromagnetic
interferences between the analog audio signal, the DASnet data and the power. Be sure to
check the specifications provided by the cable manufacturer. It is also especially important
when installing connectors yourself, to note that when termination is not accurate, a cable
will be unable to achieve its maximum performance and could have interferences.
There are 4 different types of cables.
- The main feeds which include power and a STP, CAT7 cable. These cables are named
eCP_xx (xx refers to cable length).
- The links between cabinets (aero40A/Convert15A/LX-218CAnet), which are STP CAT7
cables. Cable code eC_09
- Power Links between cabinets.Cable code Plink1_09
- Links for RoadNet series. Power+STP CAT7. eCPk_1/eCPk_5
Important
The main feed cable eCP_xx has the following structure:
Jacket
STP CAT 7 cable with Aluminium
Shield for each individual pair
AL Shield
and a main aluminium Shield.
The main Shield has to be
soldered to the etherCon
housing.
The eC_09 cable is a CAT5e
cable with global Aluminium
Shield.
ecP_xx: Power cable 3x2.5mm + CAT7 4x (2 x 0.14mm )
