JB5860

4XDIGITALAESINPUT(BNC)

The JB5860 provides 4 unbalanced 
digital AES3 inputs to the Hydra2 
network in a 1 slot-wide module. 
The audio interface is via the 4 BNC 
connectors.

Front panel LEDs indicate AES signal 
presence for each input, lighting green 
when receiving a valid AES carrier signal 
(irrespective of audio content).

Each input also has an ‘SRC’ LED 
indicator which lights yellow when the 
sample rate convertor is active.

The standard modular I/O status LED 
flashes green once the card has booted 
and lights solid green once a connection 
between the card and the Hydra2 
interface has been established.
