Mbox 2 Pro Back Panel Features
Figure 2 identifies each port on the Mbox 2 Pro back panel.
The Mbox 2 Pro back panel has the following
features:
DC Power
This port supplies power to Mbox 2 Pro using
the included power supply. Though external
power is not always required, you should use ex-
ternal power if your 1394 bus is unable to pro-
vide enough power, or if you need to conserve
battery power in a portable computer.
FireWire (1394) Port
This standard FireWire 1394 connector is used
to connect your computer to Mbox 2 Pro. One
6-pin FireWire cable is included with
Mbox 2 Pro. The Mbox 2 Pro can be powered
solely through its 1394 connection to your com-
puter, or using an external power supply (in-
cluded with your system).
4-Pin FireWire Cable
Mbox 2 Pro includes a 6-pin to 6-pin FireWire
cable. Some Windows laptops include a 4-pin
FireWire port. To use Mbox 2 Pro with these
computers, a 4-pin to 6-pin cable is required.
Purchase this cable (model #CS625) through
your authorized Digidesign dealer or online
through the DigiStore (www.digidesign.com).
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.
