Tascam BO-32DE

Tascam BO-32DE
A versatile breakout box that provides up to 32 balanced analogue audio inputs/outputs for audio devices equipped with D-sub audio inputs/outputs like the Tascam ML-16D/ML-32D or older multi-track recorders like the Tascam DA-98HR or DA-78HR, for example. They can also be used with any other product fitted with D-sub connectors compatible with standard Tascam pin assignment according to AES59-2012. The BO-32DE with its Euroblock inputs/outputs is primarily intended for fixed wiring in permanent installations.

Featuring rugged, 1U rack-mountable metal chassis with invertible and removable rackmount ears and lettering that can also be read when mounted upside-down.

Euroblock terminals on the BO-32DE can be used for both input and output, so you can use all terminals as inputs, all terminals as outputs, or use each group of eight channels as inputs or outputs. This means you could use a single BO-32DE to input 16 channels to a Tascam ML-16D and use the remaining 16 terminals as outputs. You could also assign 24 channels as inputs for a ML-32D and eight channels as outputs, it’s entirely up to you.The BO-32DE comes with 32 single Euroblock plugs, each with three screw fasteners for balanced cable routing and a strain relief tail for cables to be fixed with wire bands (also included).

The BO-32DE uses four DB-25 connectors for balanced connections with the main audio device. Tascam standard pin assignment, which is compliant with AES59-2012, ensures this breakout box can not only be used with Tascam products but also with any other audio device that meets this standard.

The BO-32DE breakout box can be mounted very flexibly by changing the direction that the rackmount ears are attached to it. You can also entirely remove the rackmount ears when using the unit placed on a tabletop.
Thanks to its compact size, including a depth of only 45 mm, this breakout box can even be mounted in the back of a rack case allowing for compact installations with very short cable runs.
