AJA 8-Channel AES Embedder/Disembedder with XLR Breakout Cable - 3G-AM-XLR

3G-SDI 8-Channel AES Embedder/Disembedder, bal. XLR

AJA 8-Channel AES Embedder/Disembedder with XLR Breakout Cable - 3G-AM-XLR

 

The 3G-AM is an 8-channel AES audio embedder/disembedder with support for 3G-SDI input and output up to 1080p 60. Audio disembedding is always functional, providing 4 AES outputs. Audio embedding is user selectable, on a channel pair basis, to either pass 3G-SDI input audio or to embed input AES audio from the breakout cable.

AES inputs are sample rate converted to a 48 KHz rate synchronous to the video input. The 3G-AM automatically detects and configures to the input video standard.


Features
3G-SDI embedder/disembedder
8-channel AES I/O
Supplied breakout cables for balanced AES - XLR connectors
USB connectivity via AJA Mini-Config software
