The Klark Teknik DN9652 Digital Audio Network Bridge provides a multichannel interface between two 3rd-party digital audio networks and point-to-point interfaces. The 3rd-party interfaces operate in separate clock domains and are connected by a bidirectional asynchronous sample rate converter (ASRC). This technology allows the interfacing of up to 64 bidirectional channels between two independently clocked domains, which can also operate at different sampler rates.
The DN9652 is future-proof by being able to support new and emerging protocols via its two expansion slots, which are compatible with Cirrus CM-1 format, offering compatibility with Klark Teknik KT-AES50, KT-DANTE64, KT-MADI and KT-USB network modules.
The DN9650 features status LED indicators for both 3rd-party network domains, Ethernet control port activity, and the ASRC bypass and bidirectional output clock inhibit functions on the front panel for โat a glanceโ status display, even at wide distances and viewing angles. The rear panel features two network slots which are compatible with the optional Klark Teknik KT-MADI and KT-Dante64 modules, while word clock inputs and outputs, as well as video black burst sync use Neutrik BNC connectors. The onboard web server allows for platform-independent configuration using a web browser application, allowing for simple user selection of network module and DN9652 settings, including 3rd-party network domain sample rate and clock synchronization options and the ASRC bypass and bidirectional output clock inhibit functions.
