Allen & Heath DX164-W Wall Mount DX Expander with 16-Inputs and 4-Outputs

16 XLR Input / 4 XLR Output Wall Mount DX Expander The DX164-W is a wall mountable expander that adds remote I/O to a dLive system. Each DX164-W features 16 mic preamps with independent Phantom Power LED indicators, plus 4 XLR line outs. Up to 6 DX164-W units can be connected to a standard dLive system - 4 via the MixRack and 2 via the Surface - allowing up to 96 remote inputs and 24 remote outputs in addition to those provided by the MixRack and Surface. Up to 46 units can be added to a dLive system via a DX Link card or DX Hub (808 analogue inputs, 224 analogue outputs). The DX164-W connects via a single Cat5e cable (Ethernet based Layer 2) to the dLive Surface, MixRack, DX Hub or upstream DX164-W / DX168 via a secure etherCON port. A second locking etherCON port is provided for redundant connection to compatible hardware, or for daisy-chaining to a downstream DX164-W or DX168 for additional remote I/O. The Expander's design allows for wall mount operation or, alternatively, installation in a stage "Dip Trap" making it perfect for fixed installations.Features: Designed for Wall Mount or Dip Trap installation 16 balanced Mic Preamps on XLR Phantom Power LED per Input 4 balanced XLR Line Outs Locking EtherCon ports Daisy chain or redundant audio connection Fits in a standard 12"x12" NEMA backbox Compatible with ACE Backstage 174SLBK stage pocket system 3 power supply options: 100-230V AC powered on IEC or screw terminal blocks, as well as 12V DC power DC power can be used as redundant power supply 96kHz 24bit converters
