Focusrite Pro REDNET-1 RedNet 1 8-Channel AD/DA Remote Dante Interface for RedNet Network Audio System

The Focusrite RedNet 1 connects to your network with a single Ethernet cable. It’s remotely controlled via the network and can be placed anywhere in your facility. It offers eight channels of line-level analog in and out, with Focusrite’s precision 24-bit A/D and D/A conversion for superb audio performance, and 119dB dynamic range at sample rates up to 192 kHz. The rear panel includes standard DB25 connectors for analog patchbay or breakout cable interfacing.

RedNet 1 can be used simply as a means of converting 8 channels of audio and delivering it somewhere else on the network at near-zero latency. If you need to connect RedNet 1 to your computer there are three methods:

• The RedNet PCIe card for Core Audio and ASIO applications such as Logic and Nuendo
• RedNet 5 for Pro Tools HD, Pro Tools HDX and Pro Tools HD Native via DigiLink connectors
• Directly to your computer’s Ethernet port using a standard Ethernet cable (with “Dante Virtual Soundcard”)

RedNet is Focusrite’s flagship range of modular Ethernet-networked audio interfaces that harnesses the power of Audinate’s tried and tested Dante digital audio networking system to bring studio quality sound to any modern audio application. Fundamentally RedNet is an extremely scalable, near zero latency audio distribution system that can be used to expand I/O channel count, interface digital components, and/or bridge between Pro Tools|HD or MADI and the Dante audio network.
