DirectOut Technologies SPLIT.CONVERTER BNC/SC is a combined format converter and signal splitter for MADI (AES10). It allows for instantaneous conversion of optical MADI signals into coaxial signals and vice versa. Using the straightforward source selector on the front panel, each MADI output port can be fed by any input port.
All ports are fully independent from each other allowing the SPLIT.CONVERTER to route and convert up to four asynchronous MADI streams simultaneously.
How it works
Using the rotary input selector for each port, any output can be fed from any input. All ports are independent from each other, allowing the SPLIT.CONVERTER to route and convert up to four asynchronous MADI streams simultaneously. The signal routing is bittransparent and operates without any delays. All common sample rates and MADI formats are supported, and will pass through the unit without modifi cation. It is therefore also possible to convert and route proprietary data formats.
Bit transparent
The routing is bit transparent and works without delay. All common sample rates (up to 192 kHz) and MADI formats (48k/96k frame, 56/64 channels) are supported. This means that even proprietary adaptions of MADI will pass through the unit in their native state.
Safe operation
Thanks to two phase-redundant power supplies with separate IEC inlets and AC power switches on the rear panel the device offers the highest reliability.
Single-Mode / Multi-Mode
The SC ports are multi-mode as default. It is possible to equip the device with single-mode SC ports. The housing of single-mode ports is colored blue.
Typical applications include:
-Switching converter units between control rooms
-Redundancy splitting/switching (manually) during recording or live sound applications.
-Splitting signals for live events (FOH, monitoring, recording)
-Conversion between optical and coaxial connections to link devices
-Conversion between single-mode and multi-mode
