Allen & Heath DX012 Remote Output Expander with Analog and AES Connections

The 12 XLR connections can be configured as 12 analog line outputs, eight analog line outs with four stereo AES outputs, or four analog line outputs with eight stereo AES outs. Over a secure EtherCon jack, the DX012 connects to the aforementioned mixers and matrices with a single Cat 5e cable. A second, locking EtherCon port allows for redundancy or daisy-chaining to a second DX expander for additional connections if more are needed.
