DA12 - Overview

The Masterclock DA12 is a distribution amplifier. It amplifies and isolates time code signals, RF and electronic pulses to a dozen leads. The DA12 is an Ideal hub for clock systems distributed over large areas and distances.

Supplying a Time Code Source
A source of time code is required. This may be in the form of electronic pulse, radio frequency, DC IRIG Time Code or AM IRIG Time Code (TC). TC is an audio signal similar to that of a modem. It can be routed over unshielded wire, like flat telephone cable, or over an RG-58/59 coaxial cable.

Connect the Time Code source to the input BNC connector or the appropriate pins on the rear of the DA12. The input has an impedance of 50Ω to 600Ω.

  • Features:

    • 1 or 2 inputs: 1 input driving 12 outputs or 2 inputs each driving 6 outputs, all BNC connectors
    • Output banks are selectable AC or DC coupled
    • Dual isolated output banks
    • Chassis is steel with rust resistant powder coat
    • Universal worldwide AC power
    • CE marked for sale in EU - FCC, class B, emissions
    • Green power LED on front panel
