Fonestar NMX-1616D Digital Audio Matrix with DANTE and DSP

The Fonestar NMX-1616D is an advanced professional digital audio matrix that integrates a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) with high-density analog and DANTE digital connectivity. This model is designed for large-scale, complex audio installations that require both local and network-based audio routing, such as conference systems, hotels, and large public venues.

The primary feature differentiating the NMX-1616D is its built-in DANTE audio networking capabilities.

Key Features and Capabilities:

• Integrated DANTE Networking: Features 16 DANTE digital inputs and 16 DANTE digital outputs, allowing seamless integration into existing DANTE audio-over-IP networks.

• Analog I/O: Provides 16 balanced analog inputs (selectable Microphone/Line with 48 V Phantom Power) and 16 balanced analog outputs via Euroblock connectors.

• High-Performance DSP: Utilizes an ADI SHARC 21489 architecture for robust audio processing, including:

  • AEC (Echo Cancellation) for professional conferencing.

  • AFC (Acoustic Feedback Cancellation).

  • ANS (Noise Suppression).

  • AGC (Automatic Gain Control).

• Extensive Channel Processing: Offers comprehensive signal processing, including parametric and graphic filters, noise gates, compressors, expanders, delays, crossovers, and limiters on both analog and DANTE channels.

• Control and System Integration:

  • 8 Configurable GPIOs for interfacing with external control devices.

  • PTZ Camera Tracking Control for conference applications.

  • Control via Ethernet (LAN), RS-232, and RS-485 ports, supporting UDP, RS-232, and RS-485 protocols for integration with third-party control systems.

• Digital Audio Quality: Operates at 48 KHz, 24 bits with low latency (<3 ms).

• User Interface: Managed via modular PC configuration software and a customizable user interface (App for Android and iOS touch screens).
