The 2U 6416i can insert up to 16 line-level analog sources into a Pro64 digital snake or audio network system. Audio connected to the 6416i is converted to A-Net digital data and inserted into the Pro64 network. Each channel includes a four-position gain switch with three-segment LED level metering, and individual channel activation switches. Adjacent channels can be linked as a stereo pair. Audio thru connections are provided via DB25 multipin connectors on the rear panel.

Flexible I/O

Each 6416i can be configured to operate within one of four 16-channel channel/slot ranges within the Pro64 network or assigned to the network's matrix using the Pro64 Network Manager software, making complex installations easy to configure and manage. Each input channel of a 6416i can be made active and inserted into the network as needed.

The Pro64 A-Net network supports three ranges of variable sample rates: 44.1/48kHz±, 96kHz±, and 192kHz±. No matter the sample rate, all 16 input channels on the 6416i are available for use. All audio is streamed at 24-bit resolution with no data compression at any time.

In addition to its audio capabilities, the 6416i also includes the innovative Virtual Data Cables^™ for simultaneously distributing up to 14 channels of non-audio control data such as MIDI, RS-232, and GPIO to any device on the Pro64 network. Every Pro64 I/O module comes with its own set of VDC^™ ports that can be individually configured.

The 6416i can also be used as inputs into a Pro16 Monitor Mixing System (an ASI A-Net Systems Interface module is required).
