Aviom, the exclusive developer of the A-Net audio transport protocol, is now shipping the C4dio Digital I/O Card for the AllFrame Multi-Modular I/O System.
More details from Aviom (www.aviom.com):
The C4dio Digital I/O Card is a 4×4 AES3 I/O card with BNC Word Clock Out, In, and In with Termination options. With this card, users have even more connectivity options and flexibility in terms of designing signal flow in a Pro64 audio network. At the center of the AllFrame Multi-Modular I/O System is the F6 Modular I/O Frame, a multi-purpose network frame with six field-configurable I/O card slots and integrated Cat-5e and fiber optic connectivity. The F6 can be outfitted to meet the audio I/O requirements of nearly any application with C4m Mic/Line Input Cards, C4o Output Cards or the new C4dio Digital I/O Cards.
Installing six C4dio Digital I/O Cards in an F6 Modular I/O Frame allows the AllFrame to be configured as a 24×24 AES3 digital audio interface. Sample rate converters can be turned on per input pair from within the Pro64 Network Manager software to allow asynchronous devices with digital outputs, but without Word Clock connections, to be used as input sources.
The F6 can be powered in multiple ways, including a four-pin XLR connector, a Euroblock connector or one of the Cat-5 A-Net ports. Installations that use Power Over A-Net must use the new Aviom-approved POA80 Power Supply.
The AllFrame Multi-Modular I/O System brings the flexibility of the Aviom’s powerful Pro64 audio network to the wall box and stage box. For both installations as well as on the road, the AllFrame Multi-Modular I/O system eliminates several expensive and labor-intensive stages of the signal chain while reducing cable clutter and enhancing flexibility.
