Embedded Audio
The UPC-166 supports all four groups (16 channels) of embedded
audio at full 24-bit resolution in both SD (with extended data packets)
and HD
.
Analog Audio
The UPC-166 supports 8 channels of balanced (differential) analog
audio. The analog audio is encoded such that a +24 dBu input is
equivalent to digital 0 dBFS.
Discrete AES Audio Input
The UPC-166 can accept 16 channels (8 pairs) of discrete AES audio
on 75
Ω BNC connections. Sample rate conversion can be employed to
account for minor clock rate differences in the AES stream and the
input video stream.
Note: The AES signal must have a nominal rate of approximately
48 kHz. The UPC-166 does not support AES input at 32 kHz,
44.1 kHz, 96 kHz or 192 kHz rates.
Discrete AES Audio Output
The UPC-166 can provide 16 channels (8 pairs) of discrete AES audio
on 75
Ω BNC connections.
(1) All rates displayed as frame rates; interlaced
(―i‖) field rates are two times the rate value shown.
