  • Page 81: Udm-Abb-8-Sig Audio Breakout Box

    The UDM-ABB-8-SIG Audio Breakout Box (FG1402-60) delivers analog and digital audio, buffered and cascaded from the output side of an upstream UDM-0808-SIG Hub. The Audio Breakout Box (ABB) allows up to eight individual audio streams to be centrally delivered as inputs into distributed audio systems that may co-exist with the RX02N receivers.

    UDM-ABB-8-SIG Audio Breakout Box. The UDM-0808-SIG supports up to eight inputs (A-H), and up to eight outputs (UDM Ports 1-8). Adding up to three more UDM-0808-SIG Hubs is possible via the two sets of CASCADE ports (In/Out 1-4, In/Out 5-8), and optional UDM Cascade Cables (FG-1402-71).

  • Page 88: Cascading Guidelines

    Maximum Number of Cascaded 0808 Hubs Due to the analog nature of the UDM-0808-SIG, the cascade limits of the product depend on how it is used. As a general rule, AMX recommends limiting the number of cascaded units to 3, unless the system is being used in a signage application or with 4 or fewer inputs.

    UDM-ABB-8-SIG Audio Breakout Box below). On an UDM-0808-SIG that has signals cascaded into it, you can choose the cascade input using the SVI (see page 21) and SAI (see page 20) SEND COMMANDs. If you append 'CASCADE' to the end of those commands, the UDM-0808-SIG will use the cascaded input in place of the local input.

    Four cascaded UDM-0808-SIG Hubs Configuring the Source Hub In a cascaded Hub installation, the first UDM-0808-SIG Hub in the chain must be configured as the "Source" Hub. Subsequent downstream Hubs must in turn be configured as "Target" hubs, and should follow a top (Source) to bottom (Target #1, Target #2, Target #3) configuration.
