Focusrite Pro RedNet 6

64x64 MADI I/O
Product Highlights
  • 64x64 MADI I/O for Dante audio-over-IP networks
  • Up to 24-bit, 192kHz sampling rates
  • Input and output sample rate converters
  • AES10 and AES67 compliant
  • Multi-mode optical MADI transceiver
  • Simultaneous optical and coaxial output
  • Word Clock I/O for increased flexibility
  • Auto MADI input switching mode: when selected, input will favour optical, and quickly switch to coaxial if optical input is lost
  • Comprehensive remote control and remote signal metering through RedNet Control

  • Overview
  • Tech Specs

RedNet 6 is a 1U, 64x64 MADI interface for any Dante audio-over-IP network. MADI connectivity is provided in the form of coax through two rear-panel BNC connectors, as well as optical through an SC-Duplex connector. Word Clock I/O allows RedNet 6 to provide clock to external equipment, or alternatively to sync the Dante network to an external clock. The word clock input can additionally be used as the sync source for the unit's sample rate converters, allowing asynchronous operation between the network and the MADI domains. Front panel status LEDs provide visual feedback of signal presence, SRC status, PSU status and more.
