7 Optical Digital Inputs
These connectors accept digital audio signals in the
EIAJ optical
(sometimes called “Toslink™”) digital interface standard from a digital
satellite receiver, compact disc, DVD player or other digital source
component. Connect the optical digital output of your source component
to either of the
EIAJ optical inputs using a high quality EIAJ optical cable.
Your Classé dealer can assist you in making an appropriate cable selection.
8 AES/EBU Digital Input
This input accepts digital audio in the professional 110Ω
AES / EBU digital
interface standard (via a cable equipped with XLR-type connectors)
from a digital satellite receiver, compact disc, DVD or other digital
source component. Connect the
AES / EBU digital output of your source
component to the AES / EBU input of the SSP-300 using a high quality
110Ω AES / EBU cable. Your Classé dealer can assist you in making an
appropriate cable selection.
The pin assignments of these AES / EBU XLR-type female input connectors
are:
Pin 1: Shield
Pin 2: Digital + (non-inverting)
Pin 3: Digital – (inverting)
Connector ground lug: chassis ground
These pin assignments are consistent with the standards adopted by the
Audio Engineering Society and the European Broadcast Union. Refer
to the operating manual of your digital source to verify that the pin
assignments of its output connector corresponds to the SSP-300. If not,
wire the cable so that the appropriate output pin connects to the equivalent
input pin.

These RJ-45 connectors are reserved for future control and communication
applications using Classé Audio’s implementation of the Controller Area
Network (CAN) Bus specification.
