Allinputs can be configured in groups of four channels for microphone orline-level in any of the available configurations.

In addition, the CAB 4n supports the new MM AEC4 acousticecho-cancellation card in any of the configurations, as well asincluding support for the company’s Serial Bridging system,providing transport of multidrop RS-485 across the CobraNetnetwork.

New for the CAB Series is the versatile, performance-oriented GPIOport, which provides configurable contacts for analog, digital and drycontact use. All of the GPIO ports are configurable from Mware softwareand include any easy DIN rail-mounting system for rack wiring andservice.

With the X-Bridge, up to foursimultaneous CobraNet audio bundles appear within the XWare software astwo sets of eight channel inputs and outputs. Several combinations ofsystems configurations are possible, including interfacing with larger,frame-based MediaMatrix systems, stand-alone CobraNet operation usingthe CAB Series breakout boxes or peer-to-peer systems wherelong-distance audio transport is required.

The X-Bridge includes support for both RS-232 and RS-485 serial datainterfaces so XControl flush-mount controllers and third-party controlsystems can communicate with the X-Frame 88 via the CobraNet network.To facilitate applications where visual monitoring of network audiosignals is required, X-Bridge includes switchable front-panel metering.Status LEDs are also included for monitoring network status and faultconditions.
