power connector SAM is automatically powered up.
7. ADAT In: This connector mates with an optical cable carrying an
ADAT Optical Digital Interface signal into the SAM. This high-
speed optical signal is capable of transferring 8 channels of 24-
bit audio data simultaneously.
8. ADAT Out: This connector mates with an optical cable carrying
an ADAT Optical Digital Interface signal out of the SAM. This
high-speed optical signal is capable of transferring 8 channels
of 24-bit audio data simultaneously. The sample rate of the
ADAT Out data will be synchronized with the incoming S/PDIF In
data.
9. S/PDIF In: This connector mates with a (male) RCA coaxial cable
carrying S/PDIF data into the SAM. This signal is capable of
transferring two-channel "left/right stereo" data of up to 24 bits.
10. S/PDIF Out: This connector mates with a (male) RCA coaxial
cable carrying S/PDIF data out of the SAM. This signal is capa-
ble of transferring two-channel "left/right stereo" data of up to
24 bits. The sample rate of the S/PDIF Out data will be synchro-
nized with the incoming ADAT In data.
