Introduction
TheWheatstoneEvolutionSeries(E-Series)Digital Audio NetworkSystemis
comprised of several components interconnected via CAT links to achieve a very
costeffectivenetworkedaudiosystem.Eachstudiooperatesindependently,yetcan
share all sources and mixes through the S-16 (S-8) E-Series Wheatnet Switch—
without traffic limitations, or machine control delays.
StartyoursystemwithasimpleAESrouterwithanalogand/ordigitalinputsand

interfacetoyourautomationsystem.Youcancreate acustomsystemthat includes
up to sixteen E-Series Satellite (E-SAT) cages and to up to twelve digital E-series
control surfaces linked to the S-16 (S-8) E-Series Wheatnet Switch. Cages can be
separated by distances up to 100m (328’) with many studios connected to your
central rack room, providing shared resources, yet still permitting independently
functioning satellite studios, each with its own combination of analog and digital
input and output cards and connector modules specifically selected to suit a large
variety of gear. We also provide a full complement of Ethernet protocol remote

E-SAT - E-Series Satellite Digital Network Router
Stereo I/O may be
split into indepen-
dentmonosignals.
Use crossover
wireCAT5orbet-
ter for all AT and
DSP links.
The E-SAT is a rackmount unit occupying two 19” wide rack spaces
(total height 3 1/2”) with 16” depth.
The E-SAT accepts up to 16 discrete stereo analog or AES-3/SPDIF
digitalaudiosources,and16stereoanalogordigitaloutputs.Integral,high
quality Sample Rate Converters (SRCs) on the digital inputs resolve
sample rates up to 96kHz. The E-SAT may be fitted with up to 4 input
cards, 4 output cards, and 2 logic cards. Hardware is described in the next
chapter.
All audio input, output, and logic connections are made via DB-25
PCB-mounted connectors located on the rear of chassis. The factory
suppliedhandcrimpingtoolisusedforallDB-25connectionstoandfrom
therouter (see instruction on page1-24).There are also RJ-45 connectors
for audio network and ethernet connections. Cage-to-cage network con-
nectionsare made byUTPCAT5 crossover cablesterminatedwith RJ-45
connectors.
AssumingtheE-SATiscorrectlyrackmounted,youmaynowenergize
itbyconnectingthefactorysuppliedpowercordtotherackmountunitand
then plugging it into the AC mains.
Frontpanel LED indicators ACLINEand DC PWR shouldlightup to
indicate the presence of their respective voltages.
The LINK1 and LINK2 LEDs indicate a good connection to the
E-WHEATNETandoptionalMCS-8(MCS-8withEngine)MICROSAT
or IOC.
Note: To de-energize the E-SAT, unplug its AC cord from the AC
mains.
