The Aviom 6416dio Digital I/O Module provides sixteen
channels of digital inputs and outputs to and from a Pro64™ A-Net®
audio network in a single 2U package, using the AES3 format. With exceptional
clock performance, the Aviom 6416dio meets the needs of digital console
and workstation users in a range of applications.
The input and output sections of the Aviom 6416dio module can be independently
configured to operate within a specified 16-channel A-Net Slot range for
maximum versatility. Input and output port assignments for Manual Mode
are also independently configurable. Each channel of the Aviom 6416dio
can be made active on the Pro64 audio network as needed.
The Aviom 6416dio supports all valid Pro64 system sample rates, from
44.1/48kHz± to 192kHz±. Regardless of the sample rate of
incoming audio, no sample rate converters are used, guaranteeing pristine,
low latency distribution of the digital signal. The Aviom 6416dio can
clock to the module’s internal clock, the distributed network clock,
an AES3 digital input, or an external Word Clock. The selected clock is
also output locally through Word Clock out as well as embedded in the
AES3 outputs. If the Aviom 6416dio is set as the Pro64 network Clock Master,
the selected clock is also distributed throughout the Pro64 network over
A-Net, using Aviom’s revolutionary clock dejitter algorithms.
The Aviom 6416dio is available with either BNC or DB25 multipin connectors
for audio I/O. DB25 connectors for both the Digidesign®/Tascam®
and Yamaha® compatible pinouts are provided.
The Aviom 6416dio also includes I/O for Aviom’s innovative Virtual
Data Cables™. The VDCs can be used for simultaneously distributing
up to 14 channels of non-audio control data to any device on the Pro64
network. The Aviom 6416dio provides VDC connectors for RS-232 or RS-422,
as well as GPIO.
The Aviom 6416dio is fully compatible with all Pro64 Series products,
allowing sophisticated audio networking systems to be designed, scaled,
and expanded as needed. The 6416dio meets or exceeds the AES3 specifications
for Input Level, Jitter Tolerance, Common Mode Rejection, and Jitter Gain.
