AES-3 Digital Audio Interface Card
General Description of the AES-3 Digital Audio Interface Card
AES (Audio Engineering Society) is a consortium developed to set standards to provide a common interface
between audio devices. Setting standards by which audio equipment is developed insures compatibility
between the devices adhering to these standards. This compatibility allows interconnecting equipment without
sacrificing degradation in performance or functionality.
The AES-3 Digital Audio Interface Card expands connectivity to the ADAM™ intercom system by supporting
AES-3 standards. The AES-3 card is capable of 8 audio channels in and out, along with eight AES-3 connec-
tions, making it compatible with most third party AES-3 audio devices. Also, it supports all standard hot
swappable and configurable features within the ADAM™ Intercom family, allowing complete control and
monitoring through AZ-Edit.
The AES-3 card supports input sample rates from 16kHz to 108 kHz with up to 24 bit audio. Therefore any
AES-3 Audio feed will be correctly received, independent of the source console’s sample rate. In turn, outputs
are compatible with all AES-3 recommended procedures.
The AES-3 card, mated with an AES-3-ID back card, is an ideal solution for MADI router applications. This
allows long-haul transfers of your AES-3 data with the ability to swap joined digital audio pairs independently of
your hardwired configuration
