AES3 Outputs    
The 64 audio channels de-embedded from the four SDI inputs are available as 32 AES-3 digital audio outputs on the rear panel 37-way female 
Dsub connector. The outputs are 75

 unbalanced as per AES3-4-2009, Annex D. The table below gives the pinout:

Note:    
Each AES3 output carries 2 audio channels, thus the 16 audio channels embedded in each SDI input generate 8 AES3 outputs. 
 
To aid installation, an optional AES Signal Break Out accessory (ASBO) is available from SSL. This consists of a 1U 19” panel with 32 BNC 
sockets, prewired to a 37-way Dsub plug. This may be mounted at the front or rear of the rack and greatly simplifies wiring.
