The FC726 Format Converter provides 56 sample-rate selectable, AES/EBU inputs and
outputs. It also allows direct connection to the following third-party digital formats: TDIF,
SDIF-2, and ADAT Optical.
Power Connector (IEC): Accepts standard IEC power cord (provided). An autoranging
switching supply accepts voltages between 100–240 VAC, 50–60 Hz.
Format A Common Connectors (seven DD-50): Connects to third-party devices. Each
connector provides eight bidirectional channels. Appropriate adapters must be used for
each format to connect the third-party devices. Specify cable requirements at time of order.
See Table 3-8 through Table 3-11 for pinout specifications.
Format A AES Connectors (seven DB-25): Connects to AES devices. Each connector
provides eight bidirectional channels (four AES pairs). Specify cable requirements at time
of order.
MADI A In 1 / MADI A Out 1 (two BNC): The MADI A In/Out Ports interface with non-
Euphonix MADI devices. At 48 kHz, MADI A provides 56 channels of 24-bit audio; at
96 kHz, 28 channels of 24-bit audio channels (cable not provided).
Format A AES Sync In (female XLR): Connect an AES Sync signal to this XLR connector
to synchronize the Format A MADI signal. According to the AES specification, to operate
correctly the AES sync signal must use the same sample rate as the incoming MADI signal
(cable not provided).
