  • Page 9: Overview

    32x32 AES & MADI Router/Interface OVERVIEW The 7800EMR-IO is a compact modular audio router/interface that can be configured to operate in two different modes depending on the application requirements. The first mode is stand alone mode which the device will function as a standalone router with AES and MADI as input and output. The second mode is ADMX mode which will allow the module to act as an input and output interface and has to be connected to an ADMX crosspoint for integration into an EMR audio router.
