Expanding a Pro16 Network
As mentioned in the section on 32‑channel systems, any available A‑Net Out
jack on a Pro16 A‑Net device can be used to expand an existing system and
create a digital split. Any number of additional AN‑16/o Output Modules can
be added, as can any number of A‑16II or A‑16R Personal Mixers.
The following example shows one variation of an expanded system.

This system includes multiple digital splits and a monitor system.
This example starts as a 64 x 0 configuration (the input side of the system is
not shown in the diagram). Two of the outputs are expanded. Port A has two
AN‑16/o Output Modules added. Port D has two Output Modules which then
feed an A‑16D A‑Net Distributor.
The A‑16D Distributor connects to five A‑16R rack mounted Personal Mixers
for use as a monitor system for five musicians performing live. Then, another
AN‑16/o Output Module is connected via a daisy chain to the last A‑16R.
Expansion of a system can continue as your needs require. Any available
A‑Net Out can be used to connect to the A‑Net In on any compatible device.
Again, each A‑Net cable used can be up to 500 feet long, making this system
capable of spanning long distance, between rooms, floors, etc. A‑16D Pro
A‑Net Distributors can be substituted for the A‑16D.
