Overview

3.2 About the 6410N

The 6410N is a high performance format converter for digital audio signals. It

converts AES/EBU, AES-ID3, S/PDIF or Toslink® optical digital audio

signals simultaneously

to:

Analog balanced stereo on detachable terminal block connectors

Unbalanced stereo on a 3.5” jack, capable of driving a 32load

(headphones)

In particular, the 6410N:

Supports multi-standards - AES/EBU, IEC 958, S/PDIF and EIAJ

CP340/1201 professional and consumer formats with sampling

frequencies up to 96kHz

Provides automatic equalization and reclocking of the digital audio stream

coming from any digital input

Automatically detects the sample rate of the digital input, ranging from

32kHz to 96kHz

Features selectable conversion ratio (D/A) settings: 0dBFS to +12dB,

+16dB, +20dB or +24dB

Has an S/N Ratio of over 88dB

Has AES/EBU and AES-ID3 transformer coupled inputs

The 6410N is 12VDC fed and is housed in a DigiTOOLS enclosure.

3.3 About the 6420N

The 6420N is a high performance format converter for balanced audio

signals. It converts two channels of balanced audio signals to AES/EBU,

AES-ID3, S/PDIF and TOSlink® optical digital outputs simultaneously.

In particular, the 6420N:

Supports multi-standards - AES/EBU, IEC 958, S/PDIF and EIAJ

CP340/1201 professional and consumer formats with sampling

frequencies up to 96kHz

With its analog balanced stereo audio input signal, splits to four digital

audio output signals

, available in all the possible digital audio interfaces

Features selectable sampling frequencies of 32k, 44.1k, 48k, or 96k

Features selectable gain ratio (A/D) settings: -12dB, -16dB, -20dB or -24dB

to 0dBFs

Features selectable digital audio system bits (professional or consumer)

Has AES/EBU and AES-ID3 transformer coupled outputs

The 6420N is 12VDC fed and is housed in a DigiTOOLS enclosure.

3.4 Recommendations for Achieving the Best Performance

To achieve the best performance:

Connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding interference,

deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise-

levels (often associated with low quality cables)

Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances and position your

Kramer 6410N/6420N away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

Caution – No operator-serviceable parts inside unit.

Warning – Use only the Kramer Electronics input power

wall adapter that is provided with this unit

Warning – Disconnect power and unplug unit from wall

before installing or removing device or servicing unit.
