The +24dBu option adds the level headroom needed when working with SMPTE-compliant broadcast equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility With Most Existing MADI Gear\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen expanding a MADI network, the priority is that the new converter works smoothly with equipment already in place, rather than forcing a rebuild of the optical infrastructure. The Multimode SFP module is the standard used by the vast majority of MADI devices on the market, so Pulse16 MX connects to existing consoles, interfaces, and converters without extra adapters or a change in fiber type. Full 64x64 channel bandwidth (or 16x16 at 192kHz) is available immediately on connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSignal Headroom Matched to Broadcast Requirements\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorking with very hot analog sources — broadcast equipment operating to SMPTE levels, for instance — needs more headroom than a typical +20dBu ceiling provides. The +24dBu option raises the maximum signal level across all 32 TRS jacks, adjustable in 1dB steps, removing the need to pad the signal down before it reaches the converter. Paired with Cirrus Logic converters and a temperature-compensated clock, the unit holds full conversion precision even at the higher operating level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16 balanced analog inputs and 16 balanced analog outputs on TRS connectors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal level up to +24dBu, adjustable in 1dB steps, SMPTE-compliant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptical MADI SFP module in Multimode configuration, compatible with most market equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e64x64 MADI channels (or 16x16 at 192kHz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 x 4 ADAT ports delivering full 16x16 channels at 96kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCross-routing between ADAT and MADI within the internal matrix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLatest-generation Cirrus Logic converters with low latency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTCXO clock with temperature compensation and PLL jitter reduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 TFT displays for setup without needing the manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemote control via MIDI and the free RemoteFish app (PC\/Mac)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnalog inputs\/outputs: 16 x 16, balanced, TRS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal level: up to +24dBu, adjustable in 1dB steps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eADAT: 4 x 4 optical ports, 16x16 channels at 96kHz, 32x32 at 48kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMADI: Multimode SFP module, 64x64 channels (32\/44.1\/48kHz), 32 channels (64\/88.2\/96kHz), 16 channels (128\/176.4\/192kHz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWord Clock: BNC, 75 Ohm termination, switchable on input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMIDI: 2 x DIN5, MIDI-over-MADI (requires installed MADI MX option)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeadphone output: configurable to any analog or digital input\/output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisplays: 2 x TFT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCooling: fanless\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChassis format: 1U rack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ferrofish","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54336249889105,"sku":"54152","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/FerrofishPulse16MXMultimode_24dBuI_O1.jpg?v=1784664269","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/en-fr\/products\/ferrofish-pulse-16mx-multimode-24dbu-i-o","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
