Description
Overview
RME offers several Expansion Boards, that add more or other I/O ports to the internal cards of the Hammerfall, HDSP, HDSPe and DIGI96 series.
The OPTO-X replaces the standard coaxial MADI I/O of the HDSPe MADI FX by an optical MADI I/O.
The AI4S-192 AIO and AO4S-192 AIO add additional analogue inputs and outputs of true studio quality to the HDSP 9632 and the HDSPe AIO.
The Word Clock Module WCM adds a word clock input and two outputs in professional quality to the HDSP 9632, HDSPe RayDAT and the HDSPe AIO.
Compatibility
HDSP 9632 / HDSPe AIO: One AI4S-192 AIO and one AO4S-192 AIO can be connected simultaneously, for a maximum of 6 analogue inputs and outputs. One TEB can be connected to the internal ADAT ports. The WCM adds one word clock input and two outputs. All options can be used at the same time.
HDSP 9652: Up to two TEBs can be used simultaneously. Please note that the TDIF Expansion Board has been discontinued.
Hammerfall DSP Multiface / Digiface Multiface and Digiface use the Hammerfall DSP PCI card. This card has no internal inputs or outputs. Therefore no Expansion Boards can be used.
Word Clock Module (WCM)
Works with: HDSPe RayDAT, HDSPe AIO, HDSP 9632
The Word Clock Module (WCM) provides a galvanically isolated word clock input and two word clock outputs (BNC connectors). Both outputs have their own driver stages, providing an extremely low jitter signal. A push switch activates 75 Ohms termination for the hi-impedance input.
SteadyClock, part of the PCI card, guarantees an excellent performance in all clock modes. Its highly efficient jitter suppression refreshes and cleans up any clock signal, and provides it as reference clock at the two outputs.
Installation is done in a convenient manner using the supplied bracket. No PCI slot on the motherboard is required. The module is internally connected via a 10-pin connector and a flat ribbon cable to the PCI card. Thanks to several LEDs (power, termination, LOCK) and the highly integrated concept of installation, first operation and usage are simple even for the inexperienced user.
More information can be found in the HDSP 9632 WCM manual.
