64-Channel Pro16 Systems
When used with the optional AN‑16SBR System Bridge, the AN‑16/i and
AN‑16/i‑M Input Modules along with the AN‑16/o Output Module can create
digital snakes or audio networks of up to sixty‑four channels. Up to four
Pro16 input modules and four output modules can be used in a variety of
combinations to create a flexible and reconfigurable audio distribution
network.
Aviom’s Pro16 products work in modules of sixteen channels. Systems of up
to sixty‑four channels can be configured as:
64 channels send by zero channels return (64 x 0) •
48 channels send by 16 channels return (48 x 16) •
32 channels send by 32 channels return (32 x 32) •
16 channels send by 48 channels return (16 x 48) •
0 channels send by 64 channels return (0 x 64) •
The AN‑16/i‑M Mic Input Module can be substituted for any AN‑16/i shown in
the following diagrams. Use the AN‑16/i‑M to add up to sixteen microphone
signals per module to a digital snake or audio network. Digital console
interface cards—including the Y1 card for Yamaha and those made by
third‑party manufacturers that support A‑Net—can be substituted for input
modules in the diagrams that follow.

: When using the System Bridge to create a network, the Expansion
jacks on the AN‑16/i, AN‑16/i‑M, and AN‑16/o are not used.
System Bridge
The AN‑16SBR System Bridge is a two‑part accessory that takes in up to
four individual A‑Net data streams at one location and combines them for
transmission over a single Cat‑5e cable. At the destination, another AN‑16SBR
is used to separate the A‑Net streams. The four separate A‑Net data streams
can then be connected to A‑Net compatible devices as needed.
