Since, like the inputs, each AES output has two hybrids, you may have to use a routing switcher, distribution amp, or console routing function to direct the two signals appropriately for your installation. An alternative would be to bridge two AES inputs across each output, which is generally an acceptable practice. Then, the mixing console’s input selector would be used to extract the correct hybrid signal for each telephone fader channel.

2.8 Desktop Director Ports
At the time this manual was released, the following devices were available to connect to these ports:
♦♦ Desktop Director
♦♦ Extended Desktop Director ♦♦ Console Director
♦♦ Call Controller
The Nx12 has four Desktop Director ports. Each supports two devices via simple parallel connection, allowing up to eight total devices. However, the Nx12 can only power four devices. If you have more than four devices, you will need to use the external Desktop Director power supply kit, available from Telos.
(The Extended Director counts as two devices for power purposes, but uses one connection. The Nx12 can control eight Extended Desktop Directors, but will power only one of them.)
It does not matter what port you plug your first four devices into, since all ports support power. You can plug two devices into one port with the Desktop Director power supply kit - it comes with a “Y” cable that allows two devices to be powered by one supply.
