The Sound Devices A20-QuickDock enables the A20-Nexus to be docked to 833, 888, or Scorpio mixer/recorders. The bottom panel incorporates a multi-pin port that provides convenient power, audio, and timecode connections with no additional cables. This accessory allows the A20-Nexus to connect and disconnect from the 8-Series in seconds with no tools, allowing for easy remote mounting when desired.
Considerations when docking an A20-Nexus on an 8-Series mixer/recorder:
- Power must be provided by the 8-Series – A20-Nexus power inputs (TA4 and PoE+) are disabled.
- Most A20-Nexus rear panel connectors are disabled apart from the antenna connectors, the USB-A port and the Ethernet ports.
- When docked to an 8-Series, the A20-Nexus Ethernet ports can only be used for control, not Dante.
