S16
Digital Snake I/O
"Built like a tank" yet compact,
all-steel 2U rack-mount chassis
High-quality components and
exceptionally rugged construction
ensure long life
*P16 ULTRANET CAT5-based 16-channel personal monitoring
products optionally available
Standalone Snake Mode
Although the S16 was initially
designed for use with our flagship
X32 and X16 digital consoles, any mixing
board with AES50 networking capability
can tap into the S16's powerful feature
set. So if you happen to work on an
analog mixing board occasionally,
you could use two pairs of S16 and
ADA8000 to form a high-performance,
lightweight 16 x 16 digital snake—
all on one CAT5 connection, keeping the
preamp remote control functionality.
Remotely Controllable Preamps Make
Setup a Breeze
Having to run back and forth to FOH,
or trying to communicate with a tech
on stage tracking down a bad cable or
connection, can really put a crimp in the
gig. S16's ingenious monitoring / head
amp control section allows you to select
any one of the 16 inputs, 8 bus outputs
or P16 output streams—for immediate
line checks. In addition to signal metering
at the stage box, you can set individual
input channel Gain, apply +48 V phantom
power, plus you have the option of
listening directly to the input signal via
headphones and much more. Once set,
all configuration settings can be locked at
the console for total system security.
Seamless Integration with P-16
Personal Monitoring System
The ULTRANET port on the S16 lets
you connect directly to the BEHRINGER
POWERPLAY P16 system, which provides
an easy, affordable way to give your
musicians and vocalists what they really
want—"more me!" P16-M Personal Mixers
let each performer take control of what
they hear, allowing you to concentrate
on providing the audience with the best
possible listening experience. Fast and
easy to set up, a basic system can be
installed and configured in a matter
of minutes—and the system can be
expanded to adapt to changing needs.
KLARK TEKNIK AES50
KLARK TEKNIK SuperMAC
(AES50-Compliant) technology gives
the S16 its high-capacity digital
interconnectivity with ultra-low latency
operation, as well as superbly simple
deployment and ease of use. KLARK TEKNIK
engineers worked hand-in-hand with
BEHRINGER product developers to ensure
the S16 meets, or exceeds, the requirements
of live performance entertainers and their
professional audio engineers. Some of the
outstanding features are:
• 48 bidirectional audio channels over
CAT5 cable (48 kHz)
• 24 bidirectional audio channels over
CAT5 cable (96 kHz)
• Single cable duplex interconnection
for audio and sample clocks
• Ethernet physical layer audio
data transmission
• High channel count and ultra-low
deterministic latency
• Accurate phase-aligned
clock distribution.
• Comprehensive error detection
and management
• Provision for redundant networking
• Minimal configuration – total ease of
deployment and use
• Ethernet TCP/IP protocol-compatible
auxiliary data channel
• Royalty-free implementations available
as Xilinx FPGA cores
• OEM modules available from
developer partners
Extreme Value
As you can see, the S16 is an extremely
versatile 16 x 8 digital stage box solution
with lots of unique features, at a price
that everyone can afford. Built tough to
withstand the rigors of the road, S16 only
takes up two rack spaces and connects
to FOH with a single, inexpensive CAT5
cable. Now you can have the missing
link between the stage and FOH at a
fraction of the cost of competing systems,
and we back it with a comprehensive
warranty program.
