It provides six word-clock outlets, two AES outputs, a coaxial S\/PDIF socket and a configurable optical port for S\/PDIF or ADAT interfaces. Two of the word-clock outputs can be configured to provide DSD, Super Clock, or various other multiple-rate references. There is also an option-card slot which can be used to extend the unit's compatibility with future interface standards. Firewire compatibility is already available, and a video generator card is expected shortly. Many master clocks are designed to run independently, but the Big Ben can be slaved to an incoming clock reference signal (including video), if required. Apogee claim that any jitter on an external reference clock is removed to such an extent that it is usually impossible to tell the difference between Big Ben's operation slaved to an external clock or running from its internal clock generator. An extension of this de-jittering functionality is that, when using a reference input carrying audio (in other words AES, S\/PDIF, ADAT, or Firewire), the data is automatically de-jittered before distribution to all the other audio-capable clock outputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e INPUTS\u003cbr\u003e 2 x AES-EBU on XLR 44.1k-192k single-wide and 88.2 k192k double-wide.\u003cbr\u003e S\/PDIF optical on TOS-LINK 44.1-48k\u003cbr\u003e S\/PDIF coaxial on RCA 44.1-192k\u003cbr\u003e ADAT 44.1-48k\u003cbr\u003e ADAT\/SMUX II for 88.2-96k\u003cbr\u003e ADAT\/SMUX IV for 176.4-192k\u003cbr\u003e Word Clock BNC 44.1 192k\u003cbr\u003e Video\u003cbr\u003e Optional video sync (X-Video card)\u003cbr\u003eOUTPUTS\u003cbr\u003e 2 x AES-EBU on XLR single or double wide 44.1-192k\u003cbr\u003e S\/PDIF coaxial 44.1-192k\u003cbr\u003e S\/PDIF optical on TOS-LINK 44.1-48k\u003cbr\u003e 6 x BNC Word Clock 44.1-192k (of which 2 can output 256fs at low sample rates)\u003cbr\u003e ADAT\u003cbr\u003e SMUX II\u003cbr\u003e SMUX IV\u003cbr\u003e Optional video sync (X-Video card)\u003cbr\u003eSPECS\u003cbr\u003e Sample rates: 44.1\/48-88.2-96-176-192 .
