Up to 8 Channels of Audio
De-embed 4 channels of balanced analog audio or 8 channels of AES/EBU digital audio. Every output is on a standard 1/4 inch jack at 48 kHz and 24-bit.
SDI Loop Through
The SDI loop output passes the original video signal straight through, so you can pull audio out without interrupting the rest of your signal chain.
Redundant Input Protection
A second ALT SDI input takes over automatically if the main feed fails, keeping your de-embedded audio running without a dropout.
