RME ADI-6432 - Bidirectional 64-Ch 192 kHz MADI <> AES/EBU format converter

RMEs ADI-6432 offers 64 channels of format conversion from MADI to AES and vice versa. Typical applications include two ADI-6432 used as digital multicore, or one unit used as AES/EBU frontend for the Hammerfall DSP MADI PCI card. Up to 192 kHz at 24-Bit are supported. Built with 2 units height there is enough space for all connectors and control elements. Of course the unit includes lots of typical RME-features:

Support for up to 192 kHz with MADI and AES
Unique status displays for MADI and AES
SteadyClock for maximum jitter reduction and clock regeneration
Completely remote controlable via MIDI
Transfer of MIDI data via MADI
Transfer of RS232 data via MADI
The compact unit with 19" width and 2 unit height serves as format converter MADI to/from AES (schematic view). MADI handles 64 channels of 24-Bit audio at sampling frequencies up to 48kHz, 32 channels up to 96 kHz, and 16 channels up to 192 kHz.

1 x MADI I/O (optical and coaxial)
32 x AES/EBU I/O (2 x 4 SUB-D)
1 x MIDI I/O
Com-Port I/O (RS-232)
Word Clock I/O

All channels are transferred across a single cable, either coaxial (BNC) or optical network cable. In both cases, cable lengths of more than 100 meters can be achieved. The AES/EBU channels are provided as 32 AES/EBU inputs and outputs via D-sub connectors. The ADI-6432 accepts 56 channels and 64 channels as well as 96k frame at its input, and can be set to generate those formats at its output.
