Adding More Audio Outputs
As mentioned previously, the A‑Net Out jacks on the AN‑16/o Output Modules
remain available even when creating a bidirectional digital snake or audio
network. This allows additional output modules to be added as needed to
create digital splits for a variety of audio situations. Any Pro16 Series A‑Net
compatible product can be added to an A‑Net Out port. This flexible routing
scheme allows you to easily send audio to a variety of different locations, and
to include Aviom’s Pro16 Monitor Mixing System for performers.

A 16 x 16 system with multiple splits
In this example, a 16 x 16 configuration has been expanded to include three
additional AN‑16/o Output Modules on each side of the system, creating
digital splits. Each AN‑16/o is connected via A‑Net using a Cat‑5e cable.
Remember that the cable lengths between each A‑Net device can be up to
500 feet (150 meters) long.
To create an expanded network:
First start by configuring the network according to your
•
basic needs (either as 32 x 0 or 16 x 16).
Add additional AN‑16/o Output modules by connecting a
•
Cat‑5e cable from the A‑Net Out port on one of the con‑
nected AN‑16/o Output Modules to the A‑Net In port on
