1. A splitter board system comprising:
a microprocessor; and
a converter coupled with the microprocessor, the converter comprising analog-to-digital circuitry and digital-to-analog circuitry,
wherein the converter is configured to:
receive an analog input signal,
generate a first duplicated instance of the analog input signal,
generate a second duplicated instance of the analog input signal,
direct the first duplicated instance to an output port of the splitter board system for downstream processes,
convert the second duplicated instance of the analog input signal into a digital signal, and
output the digital signal to an external server device.
