Rear Panels
1. IEC Mains Inlet [A]
Standard IEC receptacle for connection of AC mains. RedNet D16/D16Rs feature ‘Universal’
PSUs, enabling them to operate on any supply voltage of between 100 V and 240 V.
Note that initial use requires tment of the plug retaining clip – see page 10
2. Primary Network Port
RJ45 [etherCON] connector for the Dante network. Use standard Cat 5e or Cat 6 network
cable to connect to a local Ethernet switch to connect the RedNet D16/D16R to the RedNet
network. Adjacent to each network socket are LEDs which illuminate to indicate a valid
network connection plus network activity. See page 15 for connector details.
3. Secondary Network Port
Secondary Dante network connection where two independent Ethernet links are being used
(Redundant mode) or an additional port on an integral network switch on the primary network
(Switched mode).
4. Word Clock Out
Provides an output of the chosen system clock reference (can be switched between base rate
or network rate).
5. Word Clock In
Allows synchronisation of the Dante network to house word clock.
6. S/PDIF:
• OUT – Provides any adjacent odd-even signal pair, eg. 3–4 or 11–12. Software selectable.
• IN – Can be used as an alternative input for audio channels 3–4. Software switchable.

1a IEC Mains Inlet B
Input connector for backup mains power source. Power supply B remains on standby
but will seamlessly take over if PSU A develops a fault or loses its mains input supply.
If an uninterruptible supply (UPS) is available, it is recommended that this is applied to input B.
