Standard MADI port configuration: eight MADI ports; six pairs of coaxial and two pairs of fibre which can be used independently or in a redundant configuration. There is an additional FX loop, a separate optical MADI port (out/in), designed for connecting an external FX device such as a system using Waves Multirack or a VST effects host. A redundant pair of SSL Blacklight II fibre connectors can be fitted to provide 256 bidirectional channels at 96kHz between console and stage. A Dante card is also fitted offering 32x32 channels of I/O at 96 kHz over a redundant Dante connection. The Dante interface offers Sample Rate Conversion between all Dante network rates. An optional redundant pair of SSL X-Light connectors provide 256 bi-directional channels at 96kHz between console and stage using a single cable with ruggedised connectors. The back panel also accommodates connectors for MIDI, LTC, Wordclock and GP I/O. A 2nd redundant power supply is standard.
