Nixer RP64 Ravenna 1RU Rack Mounted 64 Channel AoIP Ravenna Patch Unit

High-Density Audio Routing with Instant Signal Repatching

The Nixer RP64 Ravenna is a professional-grade 64x64 Audio over IP patch unit built to handle critical audio signal routing in real time. Designed to work seamlessly with Ravenna, AES67, and SMPTE 2110 protocols, this 1U rack-mounted device gives engineers the ability to route any input to any output—or even one input to multiple outputs—without relying on external computers or Dante Controllers. With a rapid, intuitive interface and no software dependency, the RP64 is built to keep signal paths agile and your workflow responsive.

Ideal for Broadcast and Live Audio Applications

Whether you're managing audio in a broadcast studio, OB truck, or live performance venue, the RP64 Ravenna provides instant re-routing of mission-critical audio. With near-zero switching delay and direct front-panel control via a high-resolution touchscreen, engineers can react quickly to signal disruptions, equipment failures, or last-minute production changes. This kind of fast access makes the RP64 a reliable choice for professionals who need tight control over signal flow.

Touchscreen Interface for Fast Onboard Control

The RP64 features a 6.6" full-color capacitive touchscreen with intuitive multi-touch gesture support. This makes it easy to view routing configurations, apply changes on the fly, and reset or recall previous presets stored in memory. The touchscreen eliminates the need for external control hardware or slow-loading laptop software, putting total system visibility directly at your fingertips.

Redundant Power and Network Support for Critical Systems

Designed with fail-safe operation in mind, the RP64 supports dual power inputs—PoE via the Primary RJ45 and a 24V DC input via locking connector. This redundancy ensures continuous operation even if one power source fails. It also includes dual 1Gbps RJ45 ports configurable for switched or redundant network operation, so your Ravenna audio network stays resilient under pressure.

Multiple Control Options and Hardware Integration

In addition to its onboard touchscreen, the RP64 offers remote control via OSC over RJ45 (under development) and an additional non-Ethernet RJ45 port for wired hardware controllers. This remote interface supports RS485 TX/RX and 5V device feeds, making it suitable for integration into custom control environments. A USB port on the front panel handles firmware updates, so your device stays up to date without opening the rack.

Supports Multiple Sample Rates and Bit Depths

The RP64 is designed for audio flexibility, supporting 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz, and 96kHz sample rates across 16-, 24-, and 32-bit audio formats. Whether you're working in standard live sound setups or high-resolution broadcast production, the RP64 adapts to your audio quality requirements without compromise.

Compact Form Factor with Professional Build

At just 120mm deep and 1U high, the RP64 fits in tight rack spaces or portable flypacks. It ships with removable rack ears for desktop use and weighs only 1.0kg. Despite its small footprint, this unit delivers enterprise-level routing capacity with a streamlined interface for maximum utility.
