Welcome

Thank you for purchasing the 6416i Input Module. This User Guide is

designed to familiarize you with the features and functions of your new

Pro64® product. All Pro64 products are powered by A‑Net®, Aviom’s

proprietary data transmission protocol designed especially for the unique

demands of live streaming audio. In developing the Pro64 Series, we have

made every effort to make the user interface as easy to use and understand

as possible. We encourage you to read the manual completely, as some of the

powerful features of your new product may not be immediately apparent.

The EtherCon Connector

Pro64 Series products feature locking connectors for all network I/O. The

Neutrik® EtherCon connector is a dual RJ45‑type connector that can receive

a standard Category 5e cable or a cable fitted with the special locking

EtherCon connector.

When using a standard Cat‑5e cable, plug the cable into the center of the

EtherCon jack; release the cable by pressing on the small plastic tab built into

the cable connector.

The locking EtherCon connector is similar to an XLR plug, the kind commonly

used on microphone cables. Insert an EtherCon‑equipped cable into the

jack until it clicks and locks in place. To remove the cable, press on the metal

release tab at the top of the panel‑mounted EtherCon jack and pull the

connector outward.
