Using the A-16D Pro With the D800
A D800 (or D800-Dante) may be used along with an A-16D Pro A-Net Distributor in the same system.
Connecting an A-16D Pro after a D800 allows up to 64 network slots to be transmitted to every port on
each A-Net Distributor; use this as the default patching method if you are using A360 Personal Mixers. Up
to 64 inputs may be made active in the network by using analog input devices, console cards connected to
an SB4 System Bridge, or a Dante network.
To connect a D800 A-Net Distributor to an A-16D Pro A-Net Distributor, patch a Cat-5 cable from the
A-N

A-Net Out on the D800 is connected to A-Net In on the A-16D Pro.
All network slots (up to 64) are available at each of the A-16D Pro’s A-Net outputs. Connect Personal Mixers
as needed. The A-16II and A-16R Personal Mixers will use network slots 1-16 only and will ignore slots 17-64.
A360 Personal Mixers can make use of any active slot. Any A360 personal Mixers connected to an A-16D
Pro cannot use the Network Mix Back or iOS features; these are unique to the D800 A-Net Distributors.
