A2-7300 Series units are high quality audio format converters designed primarily to provide maximum format flexibility for the C2-7310 HD Audio/Video Processor's audio inputs and outputs. The C2-7310 provides AES3-id audio I/O via two HD-44 Connectors. Any two of the A2-7300 models, or two of the same model, can connect to these connectors to bring the AES3-id signals out to BNC connectors or to change the audio format completely. All of the AES audio channels can be synchronized to a DARS reference when connected to the C2-7310 via any of the A2-7300 units. Additionally, the A2-7300 units may be used in conjunction with one another, without the C2-7310, to provide bi-directional analog/digital or AES3/AES3-id conversion.

A2-7302 provides an HD-44 interface to 16 AES (8-in/8-out) on XLR connectors and a DARS reference input on a BNC connector. This unit contains eight balanced AES to AES3-id converters, plus eight AES3-id to balanced AES converters to provide AES I/O.

A2-7312 provides an HD-44 interface to 16 AES3-id (8-in/8-out) and a DARS reference input on BNCs mounted on a 1RU panel via a 1.5 meter (4.5') interconnect cable. The connectors may be separated from the panel if system wiring requirements dictate.

A2-7322 provides an HD-44 to 16 Analog Stereo (8-in/8-out), balanced or unbalanced, on terminals and a DARS reference input on a BNC connector. This unit contains eight high quality stereo analog to AES3-id converters, plus eight high quality AES3-id to stereo analog converters. The audio sample rate is user adjustable in stand alone mode using DIP switches or selectable from the C2-7310 menu when connected.

A2-7342 provides an HD-44 to 8 Analog Stereo (4-in/4-out) on XLR’s and a DARS reference input on a BNC connector. This unit contains four high quality stereo analog to AES3-id converters, plus four high quality AES3-id to stereo analog. The audio sample rate is user adjustable in stand alone mode using DIP switches or selected from the C2-7310 menu when connected.
