This page aims to track the wiring of various cables within the breakout.

Mux Connection Leads

These are all made up using 8-core screened lead. The screen is connected to ground in all the leads, and carries no signal because all the audio is balanced. There will be a total of two Group 1 cables, two group 2 cables and two output cables needed, one of each for the top (Net) and bottom (Stream) audio muxes. The two right-hand side connectors (seen from the back of the mux) are unused because the system is mono.

2 ??? + 24 Black
2 ??? - 23 White
3 OB Input + 10 Purple
3 OB Input - 9 Green
4 ??? + 21 Red

For some reason I can't remember what channels 2 and 4 were for, and why it's those numbers which are blank.

Channel 16 is associated with clock and puts silence on air. It has a wire link across the pins inside the D connector and no connection to the outside world.
