In addition, refer to the
NXUSBLTC User Guide
for support of one LTC input per
channel and one LTC output per channel. NXUSBLTC is ideal if you want to
preserve LTC input timecode from VTRs and other sources, and if you are using
downstream devices that require an LTC input, such as closed caption insertors.
When recording from a satellite feed, apply frame synchronization hardware
between the receiver and the video input channel. The synchronization hardware
and the NEXIO AMP mainframe must be connected to the house reference.
Do not use wire or plastic ties on cables as this can impede cable performance. Use
soft cable ties such as Velcro-based ties for wrapping cables.
The BNC connectors use coaxial cable to connect devices together. Use high-quality
cable suitable for HD-SDI with the NEXIO AMP frame, for example, the Belden
1694A cable. Cable used for analog, SDI, and ASI devices may not be high enough
quality.
AES Audio
The audio ports use HD-BNC connectors for AES/EBU digital audio input.
