The largest system (in terms of I/O) would
have 8 WAB cards and 2 AES cards. If one
WAB card is reserved as a redundant hot
spare, this system would have 896 mono
I/O on WAB interfaces, plus 32 stereo
AES I/O. If all WAB I/O was AES through
a Hydra network, the system could have
up to 480 stereo AES on the system.

HYDRA I/O UNIT
MADI INTERFACE
Up to 8 Mic/Line or Line input cards,
each providing 8 stereo inputs per card.
Interfaces up to 128 mono inputs and 128 mono
outputs. Each Unit Requires a wide area bulk
card in the Digital I/O Rack.
Up to 8 Line output cards, each providing
8 stereo outputs per card.
Interfaces up to 128 mono inputs and 128
mono outputs. Each Unit Requires a wide
area bulk card in the Digital I/O Rack.
**Wide Area Bulk Cards are
used to expand the I/O of
the system via a wide area
interface such as MADI, or
Hydra - Calrec’s
sophisticated audio
networking system.
The system can have up to
8 Wide Area Interfaces.
Please note : If the
maximum number of WAB
cards are used (8), then
one of the 3 remaining AES
I/O slots in the Digital I/O
rack must be left unused.
* Bulk I/O cards are used to
interface to Analogue I/O
Racks. Each Rack
interfaces 128 mono inputs
and 128 mono outputs.
There can be up to 5
Analogue I/O Racks in the
system.
Up to 11 AES cards, each providing 16 stereo
inputs and 16 stereo outputs.
2 DSP cards (1 plus 1 hot spare)
8 of the AES card slots can be occupied by Bulk I/O
cards (Max 5)
* or Wide Area Bulk (WAB) cards **.
Hydra I/O units can interface up to 96 inputs
and 96 outputs, analogue or digital. These
units can be local or remotely located.
