Audio connections
All audio connectors are Euroblock-type. The pinouts are labeled on the rear of the device. It is
highly recommended to use a balanced cabling configuration whenever possible. Using
unbalanced cabling can result in poor audio quality.
Input connections
MXE5 has 12 Mic/Line input connections.

Dante/OCA and OMNEO connections
The MXE5 has three RJ45 network ports for receiving and transmitting control data, as well as
audio via an OMNEO or Dante network. The primary and secondary ports provide Dante and
OCA networking for glitch free, transparent, and RSTP configurations. The control port
provides a direct network connection for control data - no multicast audio.

MXE5 network ports
In SONICUE the primary / secondary ports can be configured for three different modes:
–
Glitch-free:
The two ports are used for parallel, fully redundant audio transmission via
two independent networks (primary, secondary)
–
Transparent:
The two ports can be used for daisy-chaining of up to 20 devices without
additional external switches.
–
RSTP:
The two ports can be used for daisy-chaining of up to 20 devices in a loop. A single
network failure (e.g. broken cable) is corrected automatically by the Rapid Spanning Tree
Protocol.
