AES DA 2x6 Installation and Operation Manual

OVERVIEW

Product Overview

The AES DA 2×6, six output two-input AES/EBU distribution system follows in the
footsteps of the RDDA 4×4 product and is ideal for distributing AES/EBU signals
or word clock at sample rates of up to 192 kHz. The system provides two switch
selectable transformer isolated inputs, one with a female XLR connector for bal-
anced AES/EBU signals the other with an RCA for unbalanced S/PDIF signals. The
selected input is distributed to six transformer isolated AES/EBU XLR outputs.
Signal bypass is built-in with the XLR AES/EBU input passively routing to output
one in the event of power loss. Local and remote signal monitoring is provided by
an internal AES/EBU activity detector that will indicate the presence or loss of clock
with active and inactive front panel LED indicators and a SPDT alarm relay. The
alarm relay contacts are available on a rear panel plug-in euro-block connector. The
AES DA 2×6 is powered by a surge protected internal power supply. A 9 volt DC
universal switching power supply with domestic AC connector is included.
International AC connectors are optional. The compact half rack form-factor allows
the unit to be set on a desktop, mounted on a wall, or two units may be rack mount-
ed using the RA-1, Rack-Able mounting shelf.
