PA810 Series    
Digital Audio Baluns & Balun Panels

  ETS, long a leader in baluns for computer networks, applies our expertise in Balanced Line™ technology to the XLR to BNC Digital Audio Baluns (DAB) and DAB Panels. The PA810 Series of baluns and balun panels from ETS is designed to connect AES/EBU signals from XLR output equipment into standard 75ohm coax cabling systems. These baluns perform precise impedance- matching and signal balancing, enabling AES/EBU signals to be transmitted with greater signal integrity and longer runs over coaxial cable than can be achieved with STP wiring. Isolated versions are available for VDA and router applications.

  Other members of this family are the PA818-X Digital Audio Panels which incorporates all of the functionality of ETS baluns in a convenient, 8-channel, single-rack height unit. Isolated outputs and monitor ports for each channel are standard.
  The PA819 "Re-Balancer" balances signals into a true balanced-line performance.

PA819    
Analog or Digital Audio Rebalancer

  ETS, long a leader in baluns for computer networks, applies our expertise in Balanced Line technology to the Analog/Digital Audio Rebalancer™ (PA819).
  If you have trouble with hum, buzz or a higher than normal noise floor, this could be due to twisted pairs which are unbalanced or even "slightly" unbalanced. Plug in a Rebalancer (PA819) and many of these problems disappear.
  A badly balanced input signal emerges from the other side as a dramatically improved balanced signal, improved common mode rejection, lower noise and lower EMI/RFI.
  Many classic old devices (limiters, compressors etc.) have poorly balanced inputs or outputs. A Rebalancer solves most noise problems.
  The Rebalancer passes digital audio signals. Although digital devices are much less prone to noise problems, usually not heard, it messes up the clock recovery and conversion of the digital signal back to analog.
  The Rebalancer (PA819) balances signals into a true balanced-line performance. It provides a flat response and will pass phantom power.
