Z16.16(10.4.2)

Note: The image shown is for reference only and may not represent the product configuration as shown bellow.

Built around the same technology as the z-8.8 digital detangler, the z-16.16 doubles the number of inputs and outputs and adds several nice features to the core of the z-8.8. Like its smaller sibling, the z-16.16 is a digital audio distribution amplifier, patchbay, and format converter, all in an easy-to-use two rack-unit package. Like all of our other routers, the z-16.16 is fully asynchronous, allowing it to handle multiple sampling rates and wordwidths simultaneously (including 24 bits at 96 kHz). The z-16.16 is completely self contained, requiring no breakout cables or remote control interface: the jacks are on the back and the controls and display are on the front. Additionally, you can still use our Mac or PC control software or our hardware remote control with it.

The z-16.16 offers a solution to all of the same problems that the z-8.8 can solve but gives you twice as much i/o. It can also be custom-configured, just like the z-8.8. Choose from any combination of AES/EBU, coaxial S/PDIF (BNC or RCA), and optical input and output ports. All copper input/output ports are transformer-isolated, and high-quality Scientific Conversions transformers are available for a small extra cost. A digital detangler is the ideal solution to managing the maze of digital cables and formats found in today's studios.

Specifications:

• Input and output connectors: as configured, RCA or BNC,XLR, and Optical (TOSLINK)
• Input and output impedance: 75 ohms (coaxial) and 110 ohms (XLR)
• Input and output resolution, SNR, THD+N: what comes in goes out!

Configuration for z-16.16 (10.4.2): 10 AES/EBU on XLR, 4 S/PDIF on BNC and 2 S/PDIF optical on TOSLINK
