AES6800+BS/BD/CS/CD

1x4 or 1x9, AES/EBU, Balanced or Unbalanced

The AES6800+ is a differential input, nine output, AES/EBU digital audio distribution amplifier (DA) for use in balanced and unbalanced installations within the 6800+™ modular core processing platform. It features cable equalization and data reclocking (sampling frequency of 32 and 192 kHz), making it ideal for AES distribution applications.

Features

  • Balanced and unbalanced version, compliant with SMPTE 270M and AES-3id-2001
  • Manual or automatic equalization modes
  • Bypass mode for non-AES (non bi-phase encoded) signals up to 30 MHz 50% duty cycle
  • Data reclocking provides jitter reduction
  • LED indication of input lock and other important errors
  • Housed in 6800+™ frame
  • Full CCS™ integration with remote monitoring capability
  • Card-edge LEDs for indication of loss of lock or signal quality errors
