3.1 Connecting the P16-HQ

The P16-HQ is designed for seamless integration into a Behringer Ultranet system. Connect a Cat 5 cable from your Behringer digital mixer or Ultranet distribution hub to the "IN" port on the P16-HQ. This single connection provides both power and 16 channels of digital audio.

For non-Ultranet systems, an analog-to-digital converter (sold separately) is required to convert analog audio signals into a digital format compatible with the P16-HQ.
