Sound-Devices Astral Wireless Receiver - 1U Half-rack 8-channel, expandable to 12ch or 16ch via license SpectraBand 169 MHz - 1525 MHz, NexLink, RTSA, Dante, Analog, AES, Web App

Meet the half-rack receiver with an entire rack's worth of features.
The next-generation Astral ARX16 is expandable from 8 channels up to 12 and 16 with additional software and features forward-thinking technologies like SpectraBand, the powerful NexLink remote-control link, real time spectrum analysis, and more.
With multiple options for audio outputs, powering, and remote control, the Astral ARX16 can seamlessly adapt to your workflow, both now and in the future.


- 8-channel ultra-high-performance, true-diversity receivers in a ½ rack size (8.0" x 6.6" x 1.6").
- Expandable to 12 or 16 channels via Astral ARX16 4-Channel Expansion License.
- 169 MHz - 1525 MHz tuning range via SpectraBand Technology.
- NexLink: an advanced long-distance modulation that allows for remote control of wireless transmitters from the receiver.
- Dante audio-over-IP of RF receiver audio.
- Flexible powering: via PoE+, DC input, 8-Series, or AC mains (with optional adapter).
- Web App control from browser on any computer, smartphone or tablet.
- Full remote operation capability: Power via PoE, audio via Dante, control via Web App.
- Dual DB-25 connectors for 16 channels of mic, line, or AES outputs
- Convert 16 channels of Dante to analog and/or AES on DB25 connectors, for sending IFB, voice-of-god, and more from mixer to set.
- Wide, 6.2" color OLED array with touch for control and monitoring.
- Integrated Real Time Spectrum Analyzer (RTSA) and scanning for intuitive frequency coordination.
- Optical Fiber Network option via SFP slot. SFP accepts a wide variety of modular network transceivers.
- Astral-QuickDock allows docking and undocking in seconds from 8-Series mixer-recorders with no tools.
- The AutoAssign function automatically scans the current tuning band for clean frequencies and assigns them to multiple channels. The clean frequencies are automatically pushed to NexLinked transmitters.  
- Modular design: RF section (Astral ARX16) can be disconnected and remoted from 8-Series, as opposed to less-flexible integrated RF/Mixer/Recorder solutions.
- All NexLink control is handled by Astral ARX16 and/or its Web App instead of the 8-Series for maximum flexibility.
- Full remote power-down: Astral TX, HH, and Mini transmitters can be fully powered down via NexLink for excellent battery life. This alleviates the need for remote auto-RF-Power adjustment schemes. User is in full control of RF power settings.
- Supports GainForward Architecture: No gain setting on the Astral transmitters. Adjust gain at the receiver or mixer.
- 100% digital long-range modulation delivers the longest transmission distance of any system on the market. 
- Excellent audio quality, full 10 Hz - 20 kHz audio bandwidth.
- RF SAW filters for excellent rejection of interference from nearby IFB or camera hop transmitters.
- BNC timecode input for auto timecode sync of transmitters over NexLink.
- On-the-fly audio output routing changes directly from the Astral HH and Astral TX. Ideal for talkback, guitar tuning etc.
- Wireless transmitter pairing to Astral receivers in addition to pairing via USB cable
- Ad-hoc handoff of transmitters' NexLink control between Astral receivers, ideal for large reality shows
- Astral ARX16 digital audio outputs increased (Dante, MADI) to 64 channels
- Flexible tone routing matrix.



SpectraBand
SpectraBand technology delivers a tuning range of 169 - 1525 MHz in a single unit - an industry first!
Experience ultimate flexibility as you find open spectrum away from the crowded UHF TV band.

NexLink
With NexLink's advanced long distance protocol, you can control your Astral Mini and Astral TX transmitters using the built-in long range remote control link. 

Network away
You've got options. Use the built-in web server with any computer, tablet, or phone to control the Astral ARX16 wherever your ethernet cable can take you.
Power the receiver from a distance using Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) and remotely deliver audio via Dante.
RF Tuning:

- Smart antenna support, Wisycom-compatible
Audio Latency:
- Standard modulation = 2 ms, analog or digital outputs
- Long Range modulation = 3.9 ms, analog or digital outputs
- T&M (Test and Measurement) = 7 ms, analog or digital outputs
Audio Frequency Response: 10 Hz-20 kHz, +/- 1 dB relative to 1 kHz
Low Cut:
- Off, 40 Hz, 60 Hz, 80 Hz, 100 Hz, 120 Hz, 160 Hz, 200 Hz
- 3rd order, 18dB/oct roll off.
Dynamic Range: > 130 dB with an Astral transmitter
Output Level:
