20. USB Hi-Speed

Hi-Speed USB (up to 480Mbits). The Eclipse 384 uses USB connector Type B and operates up to

384kHz sample rate with native drivers on some operating systems.

21. WC Input

BNC connector used to accept Word Clock reference

22. 10M Input

This BNC Input Connector allows the Eclipse 384 to receive timing reference from an Atomic Clock

such as the Antelope 10M, to increase the Oscillator accuracy. The “Atomic LED” light on the

software control panel illuminates and the atomic device becomes the primary timing reference,

thus providing better sample accuracy, more detailed sound and greater stability.

23. Digital Inputs

S/PDIF Inputs

Two Coaxial digital inputs on RCA connectors using the S/PDIF connectivity standard

TOSLINK Inputs

Two Optical connectors using the TOSLINK connectivity standard

AES/EBU Input

Three XLR connector-type Inputs using the 110 Ω AES/EBU connectivity standard

24. A/D Outputs

Two AES/EBU digital outputs on XLR connectors that feed the signal directly from the D/A converter.

When 384kHz is selected on the clock, these inputs are dual-wired at this frequency.

25. De-Jittered Outputs

AES/EBU

Two ‘jitter-free’ XLR connector-type Inputs for compatible equipment using the 110 Ω AES/EBU

connectivity standard. Note that AES 1 and AES 2 can be dual-wired to 384kHz automatically when

384kHz is selected on the clock.

S/PDIF Digital Output

One coaxial ‘jitter-free’ S/PDIF Output on RCA connector

TOSLINK Digital Output

One optical ‘jitter-free’ TOSLINK Digital Output for use with compatible equipment

26. Word Clock Outputs

Four Word Clock Outputs with BNC connectors. These outputs can be individually selected to be

clocked from Clock A or B.

27. Mains Power Connection

The AEC connector supports a range from 95-245 VAC. This enables the device to automatically

accommodate mains voltage in every country.
