Hardware Reference Manual – Enova DGX 100 Series Digital Media Switchers
Connectors and Signal Types
* For a DVI connector to support embedded audio on an HDMI signal, the EDID must be updated.
** For Simplex models – control can be provided if a supplemental independent network connection is used (see illustration on
page 124).
NOTE: For information on embedded audio signals from either ASB or AIE expansion boards, see the next section and the applicable
board chapter.
Expansion Boards
Expansion boards provide additional functionality for systems. Enova DGX Switchers support three types of expansion boards:
Dante Audio Switching Boards (ASB-DAN) For complete details, see page 128.
Audio Switching Boards (ASB) For complete details, see page 142.
Audio Insert/Extract Board (AIE) For complete details, see page 154.
Expansion boards work in conjunction with HDMI Boards, DVI Boards, DXLink Twisted Pair Boards, DXLink Fiber Boards to route
audio with video and/or breakaway the audio (depending on the board).
If the expansion board slots in an enclosure are empty, the slots can be used for expansion boards to expand the functionality of
the system. The procedure for installing/replacing Audio Switching Boards is the same as for the standard input/output boards.
The procedure for the Audio Insert/Extract Board (which needs to be set for insertion or extraction) starts on page 158.
CAUTION: Standard input and output boards will not fit in the expansion board slots; expansion boards will not work in standard
input or output board slots.
Need to Know When Using Expansion Boards
ASB-DAN, ASB, and AIE boards are not compatible with one another and cannot be used in the same system.
ASB and AIE boards use terminal block connectors to bring auxiliary audio into the system and/or out of the system.
ASB-DAN/ASB and AIE numbering overlays are provided, which can be applied to the I/O board numbering plate (see the
relevant board chapter), which is across the top or down the center (depending on the enclosure).
Audio Switching Boards (ASB-DAN and ASB)
Audio Switching Boards can only be purchased in board sets and must be installed in specific expansion board slots as an input
and output pair (or pairs, when used in an Enova DGX 6400).
Audio Switching Boards support audio-only switching and switching as embedded audio on standard video input and output
boards. They also support using either type of switching from the same source device to different destination devices. In addition,
the switched audio can be digitally processed (e.g., input gain, volume, equalizer).
For information on Dante Audio Switching Boards, see page 128. For information on Audio Switching Boards, see page 142.
