Using KL-box The KL-box attaches to the KONA LHe Plus card via cables that attach to the back of the KL-
box. These cables are supplied with the KL-Box (one 60-pin to 60-pin, and one 3-BNC to 3-
BNC). When you purchase the optional KL-Box, you get two-channel unbalanced audio
output (2 RCA Jacks)—not available with the standard cable.
Note: When ordering a KL-Box, ensure that you specify one configured for the KONA LHe
Plus. The KL-Box is also available for other KONA models but may use a different cable set.
Separate AJA part numbers exist for each configuration, so ensure your dealer supplies
you with the correct one.

About BNC
Connectors
Although most video professionals are used to BNC connectors, you may not have seen them
if you’ve been using primarily desktop video equipment. BNC connectors ensure a positive
connection by the act of locking the connectors together via pins in one connector that fit
into slots in the corresponding connector.
To make a BNC connection, slide the cable connector over the panel connector and then
when seated, rotate the barrel of the cable connector 90° clockwise until the connectors are
locked together. When properly locked, the cable cannot accidentally be pulled out.
