11 WOLF CONNECTIONS (BREAKOUT BOXES)
To facilitate connections to and from Wolf, there are two different optional connection boxes available that simplify
connections. Thanks to these expansion panels, the connections can be brought to the front or rear of the rack,
depending on the technical requirements of the installation in question.
The Wolf handles analog and digital signals. More specifically, there are two different Breakout Boxes available, a
digital-only version (WLF-BBD) and a hybrid version, featuring inputs and outputs for analogue and mpx signals (WLF-
BBAM)
In the figure below, showing the Wolf Digital Breakout Box (WLF-BBD, there are two separate inputs (IN C and IN D) and
the relative outputs (OUT C and OUT D), in addition to the further outputs (OUT 1, OUT 2, OUT 3, OUT 4). These
outputs can be fully configured as required; the default jumper settings inside the Breakout Box are such that these
always reproduce OUTPUT C. All inputs and outputs are transformer de-coupled, with a characteristic impedance of 110
ohms.
In addition to the individual in/out connections, the BB also allows the device to have active independent service outputs
assignable to inputs/outputs. This is to facilitate installation. For the Breakout Box connection details and operating
parameters, please refer to the Technical Appendix at the end of the manual.
