Tascam ML-16D 16-Channel Analog/Dante Converter

16-in/16-out Analog-to-Dante Converter with 24-bit/96kHz Resolution, Dual Redundant Ethernet Jacks, AES67/Revenna Support, Selectable DBu Level Metering, and LED Display A powerful and flexible solution The TASCAM ML-16D is a professional Dante-focused converter made specifically to insert or extract analog audio into or out of a Dante (Digital Audio Network Through Ethernet) network using external breakout devices that utilize Sub-D format connectors. The ML-16D has 2 D-Sub inputs and 2 D-Sub outputs, which can easily be connected to any of the many devices that utilize D-Sub connectors such as microphone preamplifiers, large and small format console mixers, audio interfaces, amplifiers, and euro block connector devices. This simple, yet elegant, solution enables audio to be quickly and easily inserted into - or extracted from - the Dante audio stream. The TASCAM ML-16D makes it possible to transmit 16-channel analog line input/output signals Primary and Secondary Network Connections Redundancy and Security Primary and secondary connectors enable building a redundant system with a duplex network. Should the primary network route fails the ML-16D automatically switches to the secondary network route. This highly secure system prevents interruption and introduces no noise during the switch. Integrated Signal/Overload indicator The front panel is equipped with a signal/overload indicator that enables monitoring of analog input/output signals. The signal indicator turns on when a signal level becomes lower than -60dBFs. Flexible Choice of Connectors According to Purposes ML-16D is equipped with D-sub 25-pin connectors as analog line input/output connectors, and combining with optional breakout boxes enables conversion to Euro Block and XLR.
