VM2142AU
8-out V-MATRIX™ Audio Output Card
The VM2141AU is an 8-out Audio Output Card
designed for use in a V-Matrix™ enclosure can
handle a wide array of signal formats and
connector types. When installed in a V-Matrix™
Basic Enclosure, these Audio Output cards enable
the connection of eight audio sources. For inputs,
the VM2142AU can be used with the VM2141AU 8-
in Audio Input Card. See the VM2141AU for more
information.
The 8-input video cards provide built-in ground loop
isolation (GLI on Board™) through the use of
differential inputs. This is an extremely important
feature because it protects against hum bars and
other interference caused by ground loops, which
notoriously wreak havoc on large-scale matrix
systems. Both the input and output video cards
provide a bandwidth of 350 MHz @ –3dB, allowing
them to pass extremely high-resolution computer
video signals without signal degradation.
All input and output cards are “hot-swappable” with
finger adjustable lock-down screws and secure,
positive engagement card-edge connections.
