Upper row:
- RCA connectors for 8 input channels of SPDIF 

Lower row:
- RCA connectors for 8 output channels of SPDIF

5-8 ADAT/Toslink I/O connectors

The optical connections carry either Toslink (optical
SPDIF) or ADAT signal. 

ADAT:
-

At normal sample rate 8 channels of ADAT is carried

on a single lightpipe. Use the MAIN connector.

Toslink:
-

Digital Konnekt x32 handles up to 6 input channels

and 4 output channels of optical SPDIF via Toslink.
Input for Toslink channels 5/6 is located on the front.

9 - Firewire

Firewire connection for connecting Digital Konnekt x32 to
a computer and/or linking up to 4 units.

10 - Wordclock Out

Due to the DICE II chip, Digital Konnekt x32 can act as
an excellent master clock generator for you setup.
Connect via standard BNC plugs.

Beware that the Word Clock signal is not
standardized. Some Word Clock receivers are
known to fail when the peak-to-peak signal
exceeds 3 Volt, and others are known to require at
least 4 Volt, making it impossible to design a Word
Clock driver guaranteed to operate with all receivers.
Digital Konnekt x32 send 1.7V PP.

11 - Wordclock In

Connect your external wordclock generator here and
select “WCK in on the front panel.

12 - Power In

The switchmode power-supply accepts from 100 to
240VAC.
