D D-sub Connector Speciļ¬cations
D-SUB CABLE PIN-OUTS
The 24Ai and 24Ao follow the Panasonic/Tascam
(AES-59) standard speciļ¬cation for a female D-sub
connector with balanced analog input or output.
A NOTE ABOUT RETAINING SCREWS
The 24Ai and 24Ao D-sub connectors are
equipped with standard nuts with a 4-40 thread
size, which support 4-40 retaining screws. When
you purchase your DB-25 cable, most DB-25 cables
include 4-40 screws, but they may not be installed
on the cable yet. Instead, the cable may have metric
screws on it, with the 4-40 screws supplied
separately (in a bag or pouch). If this is the case,
remove the currently installed screws and replace
them with the supplied 4-40 screws.
Use 4-40 retaining
screws (supplied with
your DB-25 cable)
