embedded, digital (AES/EBU), or analog audio signals.
Depending on your server configuration you can find the following audio connectors on the
rear panel:
• Digital audio:
◦ DA-15 connectors: 16 inputs and 16 outputs (110 Ohm balanced).
◦ BNC connectors: 8 inputs and 8 outputs (75 Ohm unbalanced).
◦ XLR connectors: 8 inputs and 8 outputs (110 Ohm balanced).
• Analog audio:
◦ XLR connectors: 8 inputs (high-Z balanced) and 8 outputs (600 Ohm drive
capable).
◦ DA-15 connectors: 16 inputs (high-Z balanced) and 16 outputs (600 Ohm drive
capable - breakout cables with XLR connectors available).
• Audio monitoring :
◦ DA-15 connector: 4 analog mono outputs (600 Ohm drive capable) (XT3 4U).
◦ XLR connectors: 4 analog mono outputs (600 Ohm drive capable) (XT3 6U).
See also section "Audio Specifications" on page 15 for full information on the available
