Connect A-Net Out on the AV-M8 to the A-Net In on a Pro16 monitoring or
output device. Use A-Net Expansion for creating networks of up to 32 channels
using only one Cat-5e cable.
A-Net Out
The A‑Net Out port sends eight channels of digital A‑Net data from the AV‑M8
to an A‑Net compatible device such as the AN‑16/o Output Module, A‑16II,
A‑16R, or AV‑P2 Output Module. Use a standard Cat‑5e cable or one outfitted
with a Neutrik EtherCon connector.
The A‑Net Out port will transmit a 16‑channel A‑Net stream when two AV‑M8
modules are cascaded via the ADAT optical connections.
A-Net Expansion
The A‑Net Expansion port is used when creating an audio network of up to 32
channels. Using the A‑Net Expansion port allows up to 32 channels of A‑Net
data to travel down a single Cat‑5e cable up to 500 feet (150 meters) to/from
compatible Pro16 units.
