Topic: Musikmesse Frankfurt 2011 new products part 1: BOB-16 breakout boxes
04/01/2011 RME ships 3 new analog breakout boxes: BOB-16 I, BOB-16 O, BOB-16 IO
The BOB-16 connects up to 16 inputs (BOB-16 I), 16 outputs (BOB-16 O) or 8+8 inputs+outputs with XLR Neutrik connectors to two D-sub 25-pin connectors. It works like two breakout cables D-Sub from/to XLR. The usual multicore breakout cables are replaced with a 19" rack mount unit, preventing cable chaos, errors and connection problems.
The BOB-16 boxes are the perfect addition to the M series, ADI-8 QS or OctaMic II.
All BOB-16 boxes provide the revolutionary Flip frame option. It allows to change rack brackets and handles from front to rear and thus to change XLR or D-sub from front to rear as well. This way a BOB will perfectly fit in every rack and working situation.
