1 General
The BES-1616/110 is a 16x16 AES/EBU digital audio router with balanced in- and outputs and
transformer coupling. This state of the art router provides high performance circuits in SMD technology
for maximum system performance. The BES-1616/110 is designed for all demanding routing tasks in
digital studio and broadcast environments. The built-in RS-232 interface allows the user to control the
router via the Triton Router Control System PC software with many operational features. The control bus
allows linking the unit to the BVS-1616 or BDS-1616 video router thus creating a 16x16 AFV router.
Several units can be combined to form a 2 or more layer AES/EBU matrix system. One or several Triton
remote control panels can control the BES-1616/110 as well. Another unique feature of the Triton 16x16
series is the possibility to reconfigure the router via the configuration switch on the back plane so that the
unit can be several types of routers:
16x16 AES/EBU 1 Channel
8x8 AES/EBU 2 Channel
5x5 AES/EBU 3 Channel
4x4 AES/EBU 4 Channel
