Analog Audio Embedders with AES Outputs
The MXA6800+A4B2D/+A4C2D series of analog audio embedders accepts an SDI input and embeds four channels of analog audio into the SDI signal. Part of the 6800+™ core processing platform, each module provides one SDI output containing the embedded audio, plus two AES outputs, balanced or unbalanced (coaxial), depending upon module version.
The input to the embedder can be selected from any of the analog audio inputs, providing full flexibility in defining the mix or sum of audio embedded into the SDI output, as well as supplied on the additional AES outputs. The configurations of the audio into the embedder and the audio to the AES outputs are independently set and can be different.
The MXA6800+ modules can be controlled manually via card-edge controls, or controlled and monitored via the CCS Navigator™ software application, HTTP web, NUCLEUS™ hardware control panels or third-party SNMP-based control applications.
Features
- SDI video input with auto-detect and input status feedback
- Four analog audio inputs
- Two AES outputs for general purpose use (balanced or unbalanced), AES11 compliant
- Selectable 20/24-bit audio embedding
- Adjustable embedding group and mode
- Selection of any combination of audio input(s) into the embedder, providing ability to pass as-is, swap or sum channels freely
- Selection of any combination of audio input(s) feeding the AES outputs, providing ability to pass as-is, swap or sum channels freely
- 24-bit audio processing with adjustable fade rate, gain, invert and mute
- C-bit, U-bit, and V-bit transparency
- Adjustable audio delay up to approximately 1.3 seconds
- Supports card-edge and remote control of module (via CCS Navigator, web browser and third-party SNMP-based control applications)
