Hardware Connections

Mains Power Connections

SB i16 and SB 8.8 include redundant PSUs with IEC C14 inlets. Either supply
can individually power the unit. Ideally these should be connected to separate
power circuits to provide redundancy of incoming AC power.

Dante Connections

A pair of LEDs per port provide
network information:
ACT flashes when there is
network activity
GB shows Ethernet network
status
SB i16 and SB 8.8 have two redundant sets of network connections.
In Dante Controller it is possible to set Dante ports to switched mode rather than redundant mode.
While this is possible, there is no need to here as the extension ports provide this functionality
without loss of redundancy.
Never connect Primary and Secondary ports to the same single Dante network.

Audio Inputs and Outputs

Electronically balanced mic/line inputs and line outputs on latching XLR-
3 connectors.
See Appendix B for pinout information.

GPIO

4 General Purpose opto-coupled inputs and 4 General Purpose relay outputs
allow embedding and de-embedding of logic signals across the network.
See Appendix B for pinout information.
Network A ports feature
etherCON ruggedised RJ45
connectors.
Extension ports are switched ports of the
primary and secondary Dante ports
respectively. They allow direct connection
of a control PC or even another Dante
device.
