Focusrite | 505021 | Rednet-A8R | 8x8 analogue I/O with dual power supply

RedNet A8R is a 1U, 8x8 line-level analogue I/O interface for any Dante audio-over-IP network. With network and power supply redundancy, RedNet A8R is the ideal choice for providing analogue I/O in many critical-signal-path applications, whether in post-production, broadcast, live audio or recording studios.

Analogue, EAS3, Dante and wordclock

High-quality conversion with up to 119dB dynamic range is provided via two DB25 connectors on the rear panel, while an additional pair of AES3 I/O is provided via male and female XLR for added flexibility. Word Clock I/O on BNC connectors allows external devices to clock to RedNet A8R, or alternatively allows RedNet A8R within a network to act as a clock master with external input. Power is supplied via a pair of lockable IEC power inputs and network connections are provided with a pair of lockable Neutrik etherCON connectors; offering redundant operation or daisy-chain operation.

Studio-quality sound meets digital audio networks

Leveraging the flexibility of Dante™, Focusrite's audio-over-IP devices offer a modular approach to building your audio solution, whether for post-production, broadcast, live sound or the recording studio. The range includes our best remote microphone-pre's, the best conversion and a wide selection of PC interface options.

DANTE, MADI, AES, ProTools HD

RedNet interfaces offer a selection of dedicated audio-over-IP interfaces, including MADI, AES3, analogue, remote mic-pre's, and include options for redundant power supplies and network connections. These red interfaces offer an all-in-one audio solution including 32x32 Dante I/Os combined with Pro Tools | HD™ connectivity and the latest Thunderbolt interface technology. Many of our interfaces are also AES67 compliant; check the product pages for more information.

Standard network

All our audio-over-IP devices are compatible with a standard Layer-3 IP network; in fact, it's obvious that almost every facility already has a compatible infrastructure. Just add an Ethernet cable and a network switch to build your audio network.
