Patchbays
Tie-Line Patch Unit
Tie-line patchbays supplied by Euphonix can be un-normalled, half-normalled,
fully-normalled, or 1/2-half-normalled, depending on the application. They are
used for support of ES108A Dynamics and Audio CUBE patchbay needs, and
may also be purchased by studios that wish to expand their patchbay systems
with high-quality Euphonix-style patchbays.
On the rear of each tie-line patchbay, there are eight 38-pin Elco connectors.
Each Elco 38 carries the balanced signals for 12 patch points. Cables for
specific uses can be supplied by Euphonix, or a studio may fabricate their own.
Pinouts for these connectors can be found in the Pre-install Manual and in the
Installation and Service Manual.
Euphonix recommends using the specified Euphonix patchbay system. The
standard Euphonix patchbay is a high-quality connectorized unit which is
modular and designed for cost-effective, easy upgrades. The grounding and
shielding configuration ensures freedom from ground loops and hum. Systems
built with custom patchbays not specified by Euphonix may cause noise and
grounding problems in the field which may be time-consuming and expensive
to solve.
If you choose to wire your own patchbays, all of the necessary pinouts are
available in both the Pre-install and Service Manuals. Refer to the System
Service Schematics for additional information. If the studio grounding scheme
is properly configured, the console will perform to published specifications,
and you will get the most out of your Euphonix equipment.
