he D2-Rack spearheads DiGiCo’s digital connectivity with an expandable channel count and high sample rates, providing more than enough firepower to meet the needs of the most ambitious projects. The compact 9U rack sports 48 inputs and 16 outputs as standard; these can be increased to 32 outputs by populating the two spare eight channel output slots with one or more of three available module options: Line out, AES or Aviom.
The 48 inputs can be specified as either 48 mic in or 24 mic/24 AES in.
As standard, there are 2 MADI Ports, available either as BNC or DiGiCo CAT5E connections that are available on the SD9 and SD11. These ports allow rack sharing at 48K between any two SD Series consoles or digital splits for recording. When running at 96K, these two ports combine to create a single high definition 96K MADI connection with no reduction in IO.
The D2 rack has dual redundant power supplies as standard with LED indicators on the front panel.
The SD Rack style menu system allows for customised rack settings and the control and activation of the D2 Rack’s internal oscillator.
