3AVDT-BOB architecture

3.1 AVDT-BOB inputs and outputs

The AVDT-BOB-AE8io and AVDT-BOB-AS8io have 4 analog balanced Mic/Line inputs and 4

balanced analog outputs on Euroblock/SUBD connectors. They can receive and send 4

digital signals from/to Dante from their Main or Aux gigabits Ethernet ports.

The AVDT-BOB-AE4io has {2} analog balanced Mic/Line inputs and {2} balanced analog

outputs on Euroblock connectors. It can receive and send 4 digital signals from/to Dante

from its Main or Aux gigabits Ethernet ports.

These input / output signals are named as follows in these AVDT-BOB:

-Mic/Line1-4{2} for the signals coming from Mic/Line inputs

-Dante In1-4 for the signals coming from Dante network

-Line Out1-4{2} for the signals sending to Line outputs

-Dante Out1-4 for the signals sending to Dante network

The AVDT-BOB-ADE8io and AVDT-BOB-ADX8io have 2 analog balanced Mic/Line inputs +

an AES/EBU input and 2 balanced analog outputs + an AES/EBU output on

Euroblock/XLR/SUBD connectors. They can receive and send 4 digital signals from/to Dante

from their Main or Aux gigabits Ethernet ports.

These input / output signals are named as follows in these AVDT-BOB:

-Mic/Line1-2 for the signals coming from Mic/Line inputs

-AES/EBU ch1-2 for the signals coming from AES/EBU input

-Dante In1-4 for the signals coming from Dante network

-Line Out1-2 for the signals sending to Line outputs

-AES/EBU ch1-2 for the signals sending to AES/EBU output

-Dante Out1-4 for the signals sending to Dante network

3.2 AVDT-BOB architecture

The AVDT-BOB architecture is divided in 3 main interconnected blocks:

-The Input block manages Mic/Line1-4{2} preamps, {AES/EBU ch1-2} and Dante in1-4.

It sends DirectOut MicLine1-4{2}, {AES/EBU ch1-2} to Output Processing Block. It

computes processed Mic/Line1-4{2], {AES/EBU ch1-2} and 4 processed Dante inputs

for the Mixing and Output Processing Blocks.

-The Mixing block receives the processed Mic/Line1-4{2}, {AES/EBU ch1-2} and

Dante1-4. It mixes them on 4 independent mixers to provide mixing Master1-4 to

Output Processing Block.

-The Output block enables selecting the source Out1-4{2}, {AES/EBU ch1-2} and

Dante Out1-4 from DirectOut Mic/Line1-4{2}, {AES/EBU ch1-2}, Processed

Mic/line1-4{2}, {AES/EBU ch1-2}, Processed Dante1-4 and the Master1-4. Once the

source selection done it processes Line and Dante outputs.
