The 6416o Output Module provides 16 balanced mic- or line-level analog outputs from a Pro64 A-Net network. Each channel includes a two-position output level switch (mic or line) and three-segment level metering. Alternate audio outputs are provided via DB25 multipin connectors on the rear panel.
Each 6416o can be configured to operate within a specified channel/slot range within the Pro64 network, making complex installations easy to configure and manage. Each output channel of a 6416o can be made active 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 output channels on the 6416o 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 6416o 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 6416o can be used anywhere analog outputs are required: on stage or FOH in a digital snake, in the studio, or in even the most complex audio networks. Adding a digital split to a system is as simple as connecting an additional 6416o.

Click image to enlarge In this basic Pro64 system, two sets of 16 inputs and outputs are shown. Analog line-level audio signals are shown patched into two 6416i Input Modules; substituting the 6416m for mic-level inputs or the 6416dio for AES3 digital inputs is as simple as swapping out a module. Once active on the Pro64 network, these channels can be output anywhere by simply tuning an output module to the same channel range as the inputs.
Additional input or output locations can be added anywhere in the system by connecting additional input or output modules (analog, digital, or console cards).
Click image to enlarge Up to 16 line-level signals are patched into a 6416i Input Module and these input channels are assigned to Slots 1-16 within the network. Once active on the Pro64 network, these channels can be output anywhere by simply tuning an output module to the same channel range as the inputs. In this example a 6416dio Digital I/O Module is used to output the signals from the Pro64 network as AES3 digital data. A second 6416dio is used to create a digital split; this 6416dio can be located anywhere in the network.
There is no limit to the number of digital splits; they can be analog, digital, or console cards.
Add the MH10 or MH10f Merger Hub to this system to provide additional distance between the Pro64 devices or add parallel connectivity.
By adding ASI A-Net Systems Interface to this setup, Pro16 output devices such as the A-16II Personal Mixer can be used to create a monitor system for performers.
Click image to enlarge Tie lines can be used to connect rooms, venues, recording studios, classrooms, buildings, production areas, or remote trucks so that users can share data effortlessly.
This system shows four similarly equipped locations that have both analog and digital I/O modules installed. Locations are connected with MH10f Merger Hubs making it easy to use fiber for long distance runs where needed.
Once a signal is converted to Pro64® A-Net®, any compatible
Pro64 device can be used to output the Pro64 data as analog or AES3 digital data as
required.
Pro64 network data is also available to any Yamaha devices outfitted with 6416Y2 console cards. Pro64 uses state-of-the-art clock management to guarantee pristine audio performance at every point in the network.
Unlimited lossless digital splits (mic/line analog, Yamaha, or AES3 digital) can be created from anywhere in the network by connecting another Pro64 module with a Cat-5 cable.
A Pro64® network can be connected in almost any way imaginable with no impact on audio performance. Every cable in a Pro64 network always carries the full capacity of the network, meaning that there are no limitations on the location of input or output modules. Pro64 also supports the use of hubs such as the MH10 and fiber-enhanced MH10f when parallel connections are desired.
Because every Pro64 A-Net® port is always bidirectional and carries the full capacity of the network, all of the ports throughout a network are essentially interchangeable. If you plan to operate your system in Manual Mode (up to 64x64), connecting one device's B port to the next device's A port throughout the system will make tracking signal flow in complex systems more straightforward. If, however, your system will always run in Auto Mode, there is no need to keep track of A-Net connections.
The ASI A-Net Systems Interface can be used to convert Pro64 A-Net data to the Pro16 format. With an ASI installed, you can output channels from a Pro64 network to the Pro16 AN-16/o Output Module, AV-P2 Output Module, or to a personal monitoring system.
The ASI can output up to four 16-channel streams of data (at 48kHz) from a Pro64 network. At 96kHz, two streams are available(Pro64 channels 1-32), and at 192kHz, one Pro16 stream is available (Pro64 channels 1-16).
Because the full content of the Pro64 network is available at every point in the system, an additional output (or input) location can be added anywhere in the network. Simply connect the desired module (6416o for analog outputs, 6416dio for AES3 outputs) to any open A-Net port, set its A-Net Slot, and activate output channels as desired.
Splits may also be connected in parallel using the MH10 or MH10f Merger Hubs.
