The Mbox 2 Academic back panel has the fol-
lowing features:
USB Port
This standard USB v1.1 connector is used to
connect your computer to the Mbox 2 Aca-
demic. One standard USB cable is included with
your system.
The Mbox 2 Academic is compatible with USB
2.0 ports. However, the USB 2.0 bus will switch
to the slower USB v.1.1 speed to accommodate
Mbox 2 Academic.
MIDI I/O
The MIDI In and MIDI Out ports are standard 5-
pin MIDI ports, each providing 16 channels of
MIDI input and output.
S/PDIF Digital I/O
The S/PDIF in and out ports are unbalanced two-
conductor phono (RCA) connectors that utilize
a full 24-bit, two-channel digital data stream.
The Sony/Philips Digital Interface Format
(S/PDIF) is used in many professional and con-
sumer CD recorders and DAT recorders. To
avoid RF interference, use 75-ohm coaxial cable
for S/PDIF transfers and keep the cable length to
a maximum of 10 meters.
In use, the S/PDIF input channels are available
in addition to the two channels of analog audio
input. This lets Mbox 2 Academic be used as a 4-
in/2-out digital audio interface for Pro Tools Ac-
ademic.
The S/PDIF output channels always mirror the
main outs 1–2.
