BSS BLU-BOB1 Break-in/out Box

The BSS BLU-BOB1 is a compact, professional-grade break-in/out box built for live sound engineers and system operators who need reliable audio routing across Dante digital networks. Its straightforward front-panel layout with LED indicators and DIP switch configuration delivers the precision and minimal latency that touring rigs and permanent installations demand.

Digital Audio Routing & Connectivity

This unit provides 256 channels of digital audio transport via standard Category 5e cabling with a maximum distance of 100 meters, eliminating the need for proprietary cables and keeping your rig flexible. Eight analog line-level outputs with terminal block connectors let you convert from Dante to analog domains without breaking a sweat, while six DIP switches handle custom channel routing on the fly.

Audio Performance & Technical Specifications

The BLU-BOB1 delivers transparent audio with a maximum output level of +19dBu, 108dB typical dynamic range, and THD below 0.01% across the full audible spectrum. Latency stays razor-tight at just 0.58ms at 48kHz (0.29ms at 96kHz)—negligible enough for any real-time live mixing scenario—while frequency response of 20Hz–20kHz keeps your full spectrum intact from kick to cymbal.

Key Features

  • Eight analog line-level outputs with terminal block connectors
  • 256-channel digital audio bus via Category 5e cabling
  • Maximum cable distance: 100 meters
  • Six DIP switches for channel selection and configuration
  • Maximum output level: +19dBu
  • Frequency response: 20Hz–20kHz (+0.5dB/–1dB)
  • THD: <0.01% at 20Hz–20kHz, +10dBu output
  • Dynamic range: 108dB typical (22Hz–22kHz unweighted)
  • D/A latency: 0.58ms at 48kHz / 0.29ms at 96kHz
  • Front panel LED indicators for signal present and power status
  • Compact form factor: 1.65" H × 8.63" W × 7.75" D (42mm × 219mm × 197mm)
  • Includes 12V DC external power adapter

The BSS BLU-BOB1 is the kind of workhorse gear that sits in your rack and does its job night after night—transparent D/A conversion with zero fuss, making it essential for any sound operator running a Dante-based system in live venues or fixed installations.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many analog outputs does the BLU-BOB1 provide, and what connectors are used?

The unit provides eight analog line-level outputs via terminal block connectors, allowing flexible integration into analog mixing consoles, speakers, and outboard gear without requiring additional adapters.

What is the latency, and is it suitable for live sound?

Latency measures just 0.58ms at 48kHz and 0.29ms at 96kHz—well below the threshold of human perception—making it completely transparent for live performance, real-time monitoring, and broadcast applications.

Can this box handle multiple channels across long cable runs?

Yes; the BLU-BOB1 supports 256 channels of digital audio via standard Category 5e cabling at distances up to 100 meters, eliminating the need for proprietary cables or complex analog multicore runs.

How do I configure channel routing?

Six DIP switches on the front panel provide straightforward channel selection and configuration, with front-panel LED indicators showing signal presence and power status for quick troubleshooting.

What audio performance specs should I expect?

Maximum output is +19dBu, dynamic range is 108dB typical, THD is below 0.01%, and frequency response spans 20Hz–20kHz—all hallmarks of professional broadcast and installation audio standards.

Do I pay sales tax on this order?

We collect sales tax only on orders shipped to California. Orders shipped to any other US state are charged $0 sales tax at checkout when you buy direct from our website. On this item that is roughly $75 less out the door than the same listed price at a national retailer or on a marketplace.
