DMX6800+A4B2D, +A4C2D

Analog/AES Audio De-Embedders

The DMX6800+A4B2D/+A4C2D series analog audio and AES digital audio de-embedder modules for the 6800+™ core processing platform accepts an SD-SDI input with embedded audio and de-embeds up to four analog audio outputs and two balanced or unbalanced AES outputs. Part of the 6800+ platform, the modules also provide one SDI reclocked output.

Four variations of DMX6800+ analog/AES audio de-embedder modules are available:

  • DMX6800+A4B2D — provides four analog audio output channels and two balanced AES outputs from the SDI video input; includes DARS input and re-clocked SDI output 
  • DMX6800+A4B2ZD — provides same as above, except the analog audio outputs are 600 ohms high impedance
  • DMX6800+A4C2D — provides four analog audio output channels and two unbalanced AES outputs from the SDI video input; includes DARS input and reclocked SDI output 
  • DMX6800+A4C2ZD — same as above, except the analog audio outputs are 600 ohms high impedance

The DMX6800+ modules can be controlled manually via card-edge controls, or controlled and monitored via the CCS Navigator™ software application, HTTP web browser, NUCLEUS™ hardware control panels or third-party SNMP-based control applications.
