Profile PRO Series

Series also supports the audio signal processing board (ASPB). This board is
capable of delivering 16 channels of analog, embedded digital, or AES/EBU
digital audio.
Video and Audio Interface Boards
Video and audio interface boards receive incoming and send outgoing video
and audio data. These boards are responsible for converting the video and audio
to internal formats used by the video server.
The Profile PRO Series comes with the Audio Signal Processing board
(ASPB). This audio architecture accepts and simultaneously processes sixteen
audio inputs and outputs. Internally, all audio is processed with a selectable
resolution of 16 or 20 bits, then stored as 16-bit audio. Inputs may be
individually clocked in groups of four, and any clock group may be referenced
to the system reference (house black) or any one of four video inputs. Output
clocking is synchronous to system reference. Sample rate conversion is
available for all inputs (30 to 50kHz), providing uniform storage at 48kHz.
You can configure the PRO Series to operate with analog, AES/EBU digital, or
embedded (SMPTE 272M Level A) audio, depending on which options are
installed in your system. All three audio formats are supported without external
conversion equipment. Analog audio is only available with an optional
PAC208 or PAC216 Analog/Digital Interface chassis. You can specify the use
of XLR or BNC connectors for AES/EBU audio with an optional XLR216 or
BNC216 Digital Interface chassis. You can choose an audio format for each
video channel. For example, you could enable analog audio on one channel, and
embedded audio or AES/EBU on the other.
Two video boards allow the PRO series to be used with the composite analog
and serial digital component video formats, both of which are standard formats.
Both boards accept 525 or 625 (NTSC or PAL) video standards.
The analog composite input and output board offers two input and output
channels per board.
A serial digital component board provides two channels of both input and
output, plus embedded audio when used with an ASPB. You can also enable
dithering, auto-timing, and automate VITC detection. The board also has error
detection and handling.
