Jack Audio Connectors
Some Blackmagic Converters have built in 1/4" jacks, so you can easily plug in balanced
external analog or digital AES/EBU audio. The 1/4" jacks are balanced TRS connectors.
TRSstands for Tip, Ring, Sleeve which refers to the three contacts of the jack connector.

The audio jack illustration on the previous page shows the jack connector’s positive,
negativeand ground wiring pins. Ifyou need to reverse the polarity of your analog audio
cableto suit your audio equipment, youcan simply swap the positive and negative wiring
onthe tip and ring pins.
NOTE If you are connecting stereo analog audio, it’s worth mentioning that if you
reverse the polarityfor one channel jack connector, make sure you do the same for the
second or your stereo analog audio will be out of phase.
