When used with a VIS-1832, provides a complete 32x8 digital optical snake system.

The VIM-1832 is the primary “tail” end of both the 1832 and 4832 systems. This unit contains (32) analog AND (32) AES digital outputs (sends), plus (8) analog OR digital inputs (returns), all on DB-25 connectors. This unit contains the system clock which is native 24 bit/ 96khz. By introducing a 24 bit/48khz clock into the “clock input” connection, the unit will operate at 24 bit/48k as well. It also contains a single fiber connection—either a single TAC-4, Neutrik OpticalCon® or (2) ST connectors. The VIM-1832 contains a control port capable of passing TTL data, as well as RS-422 control data via the optional DGL-422 dongle. Utilizing the optional MD-3 multiple control interface, it can also pass RS-422, MIDI or RS-232 control data. The VIS-1832 can be fit with the ETH-1832 Ethernet option. Included are Word Clock and Super Clock outputs, and operates on 90VAC–260VAC. The VIM-1832 is convection cooled.

The VIM-1032 is used on the “tail” end of the optional system splits, to feed a monitor console, broadcast truck, or recording system. The VIM-1032 is exactly the same as the VIM-1832 with two exceptions. The VIM-1032 does not have inputs (returns) and does not contain a clock. This unit has (32) outputs (sends) and no inputs (returns), and contains Word Clock and Super clock outputs
