Presentation

The L-ACOUSTICS LA-AES3 AES/EBU Input Board is a hardware electronic device that mounts into an LA4 or
®
LA8 amplified controller to provide AES/EBU digital audio capability.

Main features

5.2.1

AES/EBU ports

The AES/EBU input port is ESD protected and equipped with one XLR3 female connector (transformer balanced). It
allows receiving two digital audio channels coming from a digital mixing desk or a digital audio network AES/EBU
bridge. It is compliant with the AES/EBU (AES3) and coaxial S/PDIF (IEC 60958 Type II) digital audio standards. It
features an input gain adjustable from -12 dB to +12 dB by 0.1 dB steps.
The AES/EBU link port is ESD protected and equipped with one XLR3 male connector (transformer balanced). It
allows transmitting the input signal to other digital audio devices. It is electronically buffered to refresh the digital signal
and does not add any latency.
Both ports are linked by a failsafe relay to provide continuity of a daisy-chain in case of amplified controller shutdown.
In this case, the failsafe relay makes a passive connection between the AES/EBU IN port and the LINK port.
Consequently, both cables connected to them must be considered as a unique cable with regard to the
maximum supported length [6.2.1].

Mini-USB port

Mini-B type female USB port (4 pins) is reserved for future applications.
