MADI Router - Digital Patch Bay and Format Converter
MADI Router 12-Port MADI Optical, Coaxial, Twisted Pair Digital PatchBay and Format Converter, 19", 1 HU with redundant power supply
As MADI systems grow, they may require a central router to distribute and merge streams and individual channels. The MADI Router is a device that can be used to split MADI signals into several outputs, or combine audio channels from several inputs into one signal.
Specifications: • Power supply: Two internal redundant power supplies, 100-240V AC, max. 100W • Dimensions without rack ears (WxHxD): 440 x 44 x 240 mm (17.32” x 1.73” x 9.45”) • Temperature range: +5° up to +50° Celsius (41° F up to 122°F) • Relative humidity: < 75%, non condensing
• Weight: 2.8 kg Inputs | MADI • Coaxial via BNC, 75 Ohm, according to AES10-1991 • High-sensitivity input stage (< 0.2 Vpp) • Optical via FDDI duplex SC connector • 62.5/125 and 50/125 multimode compatible • Both Optical and Coaxial ports accept any MADI signal • Twisted Pair via RJ45 connector (input and output) • Pinout “EXT”: 1-2 receive, 3-6 send, 4-5 DC +48V, 7-8 -48V
Note: The Twisted Pair implementation uses standard ethernet technology such as 8b/10b encoding for DC-balance, which is important to achieve stability over long cable runs. At the time of writing it is proprietary to RME. Implementations of other manufacturers may show incompatibilities.
