The Klark Teknik DN9650 Digital Audio Network Bridge provides a multichannel interface between AES50 networks and 3rd-party digital audio networks and point-to-point interfaces. The AES50 and 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 DN9650 is future-proof by being able to support new and emerging protocols via its expansion slot, which is compatible with Cirrus CM-1 format, offering compatibility with Klark Teknik KT-AES50, KT-DANTE64, KT-MADI and KT-USB network modules. The DN9650 works with all Midas Pro Series digital consoles, Midas digital I/O hardware, and other 96 kHz-enabled AES50 devices with Dante, MADI and USB 2.0 connections.

The DN9650 features status LED indicators for AES50 and network synchronization, Ethernet control port activity, and the ASRC bypass and bidirectional output clock inhibit functions on the front panel for ‘at a glance’ status display, even at wide distances and viewing angles. The rear panel utilizes Neutrik etherCON connectors for the three AES50 ports and the Ethernet control port, 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 DN9650 settings, including AES50 and third-party network domain sample rates, clock synchronization for both domains and the ASRC bypass and bidirectional output clock inhibit functions.
