3.1 Overview
The AES16 includes eight AES/EBU compatible
inputs and outputs that provide sixteen channels
of digital audio I/O. These signals are available
on two bracket-mounted 26-pin high-density D
connectors, labeled I/O Port A and I/O Port B as
shown in Figure 1 below.
To accommodate a wide range of studio
equipment, the signal routing on each of these
ports can be configured using the I/O
Configuration jumpers to support either four
inputs and four outputs or eight inputs or
outputs. Refer to Section 12.1 I/O Configuration
Jumpers for more information on how to set
these jumpers.
Also shown in Figure 1 are CLOCK IN and
CLOCK OUT connectors that provide word
clock I/O for internal synchronization with other
installed cards. The LStream Port provides a
connection for optional Lynx LStream expansion
cards.
