Allen & Heath DX012 12 XLR Output Analog/AES Portable DX Expander

If you need to get more out of your system, just look to the Allen & Heath DX012. It's designed to provide remote output expansion for their SQ and dLive models. It's ideal for feeding IEM systems as well as amplifier racks, offering both analog and AES digital output options in a compact 1U package.

Each unit provides 12 XLR outputs which can be configured in several ways:

• 12 analog line outputs
• 8 analog line outputs + 4 stereo AES outputs
• 4 analog line outputs + 8 stereo AES outputs

This useful input/output (I/O) device is connectable through a single Cat5e cable to the dLive Surface, dLive MixRack and SQ mixer, or upstream DX expander via a secure EtherCon port.

A second locking EtherCon port is also included for redundant connection to other compatible hardware, or for daisy-chaining to a downstream DX expander for additional remote I/O.
