The ASI A-Net Systems Interface provides a link between Pro64® Series networking products and Pro16® Series output devices, such as the A-16II and A-16R Personal Mixers.* The ASI features two Pro64 network ports and four Pro16 output ports, all using heavy duty locking Neutrik EtherCon connectors.

Plug-and-Play Simplicity

The ASI is a plug-and-play module, requiring no configuration beyond selecting a Pro64 network port for Manual Mode systems. The incoming Pro64 stream is broken into 16-channel blocks and transmitted out the corresponding Pro16 ports. The number of available channels and valid Pro16 ports is determined by the sample rate of the Pro64 network (64 channels at 44.1/48kHz±, 32 at 96kHz±, and 16 at 192kHz±). Stereo link settings from the Pro64 network are passed to the Pro16 outputs for use with Personal Mixer products.

Product Compatibility

The Pro16 outputs of the ASI A-Net Systems Interface can be connected directly to Personal Mixers, such as the A-16II or A-16R, to a Pro16 A-Net Distributor, or to an AN-16/o Output Module.

* Important Note: The original A-16 Personal Mixer (discontinued 2004) is not compatible with the ASI. Some early A-16R Personal Mixers built prior to the release of the Y1 card are also not compatible. Contact Customer Service for additional compatibility info.
