3.2.3 Transmitter audio connections
The Wizard DP Extender units support analog and digital audio. Line in and line out connectors are provided on both the trans-
mitter and receiver units. Additionally, the receiver has dedicated headphone and microphone jacks on its front panel.
The Line In
socket on the transmitter and the Line Out
socket on the receiver are dual purpose. They can accept either
3.5mm analog jacks or mini-TOSLINK optical fibre connectors. The latter provide access to the optical
S/PDIF (Sony/Philips Digital InterFace) capabilities supported by the Wizard DP Extender system, which transmits PCM (Pulse Code
Modulation) audio at 96KHz. The digital and analog channels run independently alongside each other via the CATx link.
Third party adaptors (not supplied) are available to convert between the mini-TOSLINK connections used on the Wizard DP
Extender units and the more common full size TOSLINK connectors found on many audio/visual devices.
