OVERVIEW

The Glensound DARK1616 is an analogue to digital and digital to analogue

converter designed to connect AES3 and line level analogue audio circuits to a

Dante audio network.

Dante network audio is a common protocol for distributing high quality linear audio

over standard IP networks and it is widely used by many audio equipment

manufacturers. The Glensound Dark1616 Dante audio interface will be compatible

with any other manufacturers Dante audio interface. Further details of Dante network

audio can be found at www.audinate.com

Being designed for live on-air broadcast applications the Glensound Dark1616 has

been designed with multiple redundancy capabilities. It has 2 mains power sources

and it also has fully redundant network connections for both Copper & Fibre circuits.

The Dark1616 provides 8 balanced AES3 inputs and 8 balanced AES3 outputs to

the Dante network and 16 analogue line level (0dB) inputs to the Dante network and

16 analogue line level (0dB) outputs from the Dante network on rear panel D25

connectors wired to AES59 (also known as the Tascam standard).

The analogue and AES3 outputs are both always used and the same audio signal

from the Dante newtork that is presented on one channels AES3 output will appear

as an analogue audio signal on the equivalent analogue output.

For each channel only 1 audio input signal can be sent to the Dante network, the

AES3 input has priority over the analogue. Therefore if there is both an analogue

and AES3 input signal for one channel only the AES3 will be sent to the Dante

network.

As per our other Dante equipment 0dBu = -18dBFs

DARK1616 FRONT PANEL LAYOUT

1. PSU and Link status

There are 4 red LEDs and 4 green LEDs that illuminate depending on the

status of the link. Red indicates no connection, green indicates a successful

connection.

For example, if you have connected the DARK1616 to two separate PSUs,

only one of which works then you will have a red ‘Fault’ LED illuminate to

warn you that there is no power detected on the connection that is not

receiving mains power.

2. Alarm status connection

This 8-way female D-type connector will report the failure of a link status if

one is detected whilst in operation.

3. USB connector and update buttons

The MINI USB connection allows the firmware of the DARK1616 to be

updated. To prepare the DARK1616 for a firmware update; power on the unit,

press and hold down the reset button, press and hold down the identify

button, release the reset button and then release the identify button a second

after.

4. Network SFP Connections

There are 2 standard network data SFP sockets provided to allow redundant

network connectivity if using Dante network audio protocol. They are both

gigabit network connections. They accept standard SFP modules. The status

LEDs flash to show when data is being correctly communicated with the

attached switch.

If you require SFP modules then please email [email protected] for a

quotation.

Network Note

Factory default is to have the SFP & RJ45 sockets set to work in redundant

mode.

It is possible using Dante controller to set these network interfaces to work as

a network switch instead of the redundant mode, meaning other network

equipment can be connected to them.

5. Network RJ45 connections

There are 2 standard network data RJ45 sockets provided to allow redundant

network connectivity if using Dante network audio protocol. They are both

gigabit network connections. The status LEDs flash to show when data is

being correctly communicated with the attached switch.
