External Connections

The Lynx L22 includes two break-out cables that provide connections for external
equipment. The L2Audio cable provides XLR connectors for analog audio signals.
The L22Sync cable provides XLR connectors for digital audio signals and female
BNC connectors for clock input and output.

Two bracket mounted D-connectors provide connection ports for the break-out cables:
the L22Audio Port is a 25-pin female D-connector and the L22Sync port is a high-
density 15-pin female D-connector.

Referring to figure above, locate the L22Audio Port and the L22Sync Port on the
mounting bracket of the Lynx L22. Insert the L22Audio cable into the L22Audio Port
and tighten the thumb screws on the cable shell. Insert the L22Sync cable into the
L22Sync Port and tighten the thumb screws on the cable shell.

Use of both cables is not a requirement. If you will be using only the analog audio
capabilities of the Lynx L22, for example, there is no reason to connect the L22Sync
cable.

Analog Audio

The Lynx L22 XLR connectors on the Audio Cable, labeled IN 1, IN 2, OUT 1 and
OUT 2, are used to connect balanced and unbalanced analog equipment to the analog
inputs and outputs of the Lynx L22. Make connections to professional consoles and
other balanced equipment directly with these connectors. Connect to balanced
equipment with ¼” TRS jacks using XLR-to-TRS adapters such as the Lynx CBL-
XF2TM18 (female XLR) and the Lynx CBL-XM2TM18 (male XLR). Connect to
unbalanced consumer devices with RCA jacks using XLR-to-RCA adapters such as
the Lynx CBL-XF2RM18 (female XLR) and the Lynx CBL-XM2RM18 (male XLR).
Adapters with line transformers are not required. Refer to the “XLR Connector Wiring
and Adapters” section for information regarding XLR adapter construction.

The nominal analog signal levels are compatible with either professional or consumer
equipment. Use the Trim controls on the Lynx L22 Mixer application to select +4dBu
for balanced professional devices or –10dBV for balanced or unbalanced consumer
devices.
