Rear Module

The 9257 1×9 MADI Audio Distribution Amplifier provides an award-winning card-based solution for distribution of AES10 MADI signals. The card supports sampling frequencies up to 96 kHz, with a 64-channel payload supported at the industry standard 48 kHz sampling rate (all other sampling rates specified as valid per AES10-2003 are also supported at various payload capacities). Utilizing the openGear® open-architecture platform, the 9257 offers scalable incorporation and the easy-to-use DashBoard™ setup and control operator interface. Up to 20 of the 9257 cards can be installed in a 20 slot frame.

The 9257 can reliably equalize up to 250m of 1694A, and offers DashBoard™ display and alarm for input signal status and LOS alarms. The card is available with several Rear I/O Module choices that offer BNC, DIN1.0/2.3, or HD-BNC connectors. Full user remote and card-edge monitor/control allows full card status and control access locally or across a standard Ethernet network.
