BSS Soundweb London Digital Input Card

BSS Soundweb London Digital Input Card digital input card

The Soundweb London Digital Input Card is designed to populate any of the four card slots on Soundweb London chassis such as the BLU-800, BLU-805, BLU-806, BLU-320, BLU-325, BLU-326, BLU-160, BLU-120, BLU-80, BLU-32, and BLU-16, giving system integrators a modular way to configure the exact I/O mix required for a given installation.

The Digital Input Card enables Soundweb London devices to receive AES/EBU and S/PDIF digital audio signals directly from external digital equipment such as consoles, recorders, and broadcast systems, keeping signal transfer in the digital domain to avoid unnecessary conversion stages.

The card features two Combicon connectors: the first accepts stereo AES/EBU audio across channels 1 and 2, with a second stereo pair on channels 3 and 4, while the second connector accepts the equivalent channels on S/PDIF, giving flexibility to match the digital format supplied by connected upstream equipment.

Each Digital Input Card card provides four channels of aes/ebu and s/pdif inputs, keeping a consistent channel density across the Soundweb London card range so that chassis I/O can be planned and budgeted predictably. Cards are hot-swappable within a properly powered-down chassis and are secured with captive screws for reliable long-term operation in installed sound environments.

By using field-configurable cards rather than fixed I/O, the Digital Input Card allows a single Soundweb London chassis to be adapted over the lifetime of an installation as requirements change, protecting the integrator’s investment in the core processing hardware while still allowing the physical I/O to evolve alongside the project.
