any combination up to a maximum of 16 discrete channels. Please note that because
AES audio signals represent two audio channels on one connection, some of the
output connections on the WheatNet-IP
88d are unused.
It has two more RJ-45 connectors to provide 12 logic ports, which can be indi-
vidually designated during set up as inputs or outputs. These ports are where you
wire the various external switches, indicators, and control functions you need in
your facility.
There are two RJ-45 jacks for Ethernet. One is for 1 Gigabit Ethernet – connect
this one to your network. The 100 Megabit Ethernet port is not used – do not con-
nect anything to this port.
Consult the wiring diagram at the page 1-36 for detailed information.
The unit has a standard IEC power connector. The BLADEs have an internal
power supply that will accept 100-240 volts 50/60 hertz AC power.
Model 88ad - Analog/Digital BLADE
WheatNet-IP
88ad is a hybrid access point for analog and digital audio.
It has two DB-25 and eight RJ-45 connectors (the DB and RJ connections are in
parallel so you can choose your preferred connector type) for audio inputs. These
can be set up as eight stereo, 16 mono, or any combination up to a maximum of
16 discrete channels. The first DB-25 and the first four RJ-45 jacks are set up as
analog inputs. The second DB-25 and the last four RJ-45 jacks are set up as AES
digital inputs.
It also has two DB-25 and eight RJ-45 connectors (again, use your preferred
connector) for audio outputs. These can be set up as eight stereo, 16 mono, or any
combination up to a maximum of 16 discrete channels. The first DB-25 and first
four RJ-45 jacks are set up as analog outputs. The second DB-25 and the last four
RJ-45 jacks are set up as AES digital outputs.
It has two more RJ-45 connectors to provide 12 logic ports, which can be indi-
vidually designated during set up as inputs or outputs. These ports are where you
