The DAC-8418-A dual AES to quad analog audio converter
is a broadcast quality modular product used to convert 2
unbalanced AES digital audio signals into 4 channels of analog
audio. The DAC-8418-A supports audio sampling frequencies
from 32kHz to 96kHz.
The DAC-8418-A also has internal audio processing with
independent channel gain, master stereo gain, sum (mono),
and left or right only selection.
It converts the 2 incoming AES / EBU digital audio signals to 2
stereo analog audio signals using 24-bit conversion technology.
Cable equalization and reclocking techniques enable the
DAC-8418-A to recover the incoming digital audio signals
reliably. The DAC-8418-A provides 2 analog outputs for each
AES / EBU input and 2 reclocked copies of each AES / EBU
input.
Dual AES to Quad Analog Audio Converter
Dual AES / EBU to 4 channels of analog audio conversion with up to 24-bit DAC resolution.
