Description
The Tascam BO-16DX/IN is a passive 1U rackmount breakout box that converts 16 channels of D-Sub 25-pin audio to XLR input connections. Designed as a companion to the Tascam ML-16D and ML-32D Dante converters, it provides a clean interface between XLR microphones, instruments, and other audio sources and D-Sub-equipped devices.
16-Channel XLR to D-Sub Conversion
Sixteen XLR-3-31 input connectors on the front panel are internally wired to two D-Sub 25-pin output connectors on the rear panel. Pin assignments comply with AES59-2012 for compatibility with Tascam ML-series converters and other professional equipment using the same standard.
Flexible Rack Mounting
The BO-16DX/IN can be mounted in two 180-degree orientations to simplify cable runs and avoid D-Sub cable stress. Rack ears are reversible, so either the XLR or D-Sub side can face forward. Ears are removable for tabletop use. The compact depth of 54.5 mm (2.1 in) allows mounting in the rear of a rack case.
