Description
Each input features stereo female Neutrik XLR and standard pinout RJ45 audio jacks. The output features stereo male XLR and RJ45 audio jacks. Switching is accomplished via mechanical latching gold contact relays, which means that the unit can route a signal in either direction and will keep routing signal even after losing power. Due to the passive nature of the switching, any input level and impedance can be used. Inputs may be balanced or unbalanced, while output levels, impedance, distortion, noise and balancing will match that of the selected input.
