Hardware Back Panel

Prev Next

The Omnia XII back panel provides six dedicated sections that support network, I/O, and clock connections. The I/O connectors supports digital (AES/EBU I/O), analog, and composite I/O. The network connectors support remote control of the unit, plus Livewire+ AES67, linear MPX over IP, and optional µMPX encoding.

The top section of the back panel includes two power supply connectors.

Top Section

  • Model # (Sticker): The model number of your unit.

  • Serial # (Sticker): Serial number formatted as 0279xyyyy.

  • PSU2/PSU1: Two AC power inlets for dual, independent, auto-ranging internal power supplies that provide power backup.

Network Section

The network connectors are RJ45 auto-sense connectors.

NET 1 (RJ45): Auto-sense AoIP interface for carrying Telos Alliance Livewire streams or AES67 audio streams in support of SMPTE ST 2110-30. The connector can also be used for TCP/IP based remote control of the unit.

NET 2 (RJ45): Auto-sense, used for TCP/IP based remote control of the unit.

NET 3 (RJ45): Auto-sense, used for TCP/IP based remote control of the unit.

AES/EBU I/O Section

  • AES In and Out (six RJ45s): AES I/O for three channels via respective I/O pairs (AES1 In/Out, AES2 In/Out, AES3 In/Out).

  • AES In and Out (four XLRs): AES I/O for two channels via respective I/O pairs (AES1 In/Out, AES2 In/Out).

Clock Section

PPS In: Opto-isolated PPS port for remote triggering and third-party integration. The input supports pulse per second (10 MHz) signals for high-precision synchronization.

GPS In: Opto-isolated GPIO port for remote triggering and third-party integration. The input supports pulse per second (10 MHz) signals for high-precision synchronization.

I/O Section

  • USB: USB-C port provided for factory support.

  • GPI/O (DB-15): Five parallel inputs, 5-V TTL levels, active low. For future support of the standard Telos Alliance xNode wiring format.

Analog I/O Section

  • Left In and Right In (XLRs): Stereo +4 dBu I/O.

  • In and Out (RJ45s): Stereo +4 dBu I/O.

Composite I/O Section

  • Composite In and Out (four BNCs): Composite I/O for two channels via respective I/O pairs (1 In/Out, 2 In/Out).
