Appsys ProAudio ADX-16 BiDirectional ADAT Expander

Appsys ProAudio ADX-16 BiDirectional ADAT ExpanderThe ADX 16 Kit has been designed to overcome the length limitations (5m 16 ft) of optical TOSLINK interconnects running ADAT Lightpipe, S PDIF and other protocols. The kit enables you to run two TOSLINK connections (one in each direction) over a single Cat5 cable and up to 100m 330ft. in length, opening up a range of new possibilities (e. g. for audio distribution within a building). Applications Economic digital 8x8 snake with lowest latency

The ADX-16 Kit has been designed to overcome the length limitations (5m/16 ft) of optical TOSLINK® interconnects running ADAT Lightpipe®, S/PDIF® and other protocols.

The kit enables you to run two TOSLINK connections (one in each direction) over a single Cat5 cable and up to 100m / 330ft. in length, opening up a range of new possibilities (e.g. for audio distribution within a building).

Applications

• Economic digital 8x8 snake with lowest latency
• Recording of 8 channels from a remote location, with master clock transmitted to the remote unit
• Interconnection of ADAT enabled equipment (e.g. DAWs and digital mixers)
• If analog conversion is needed at one or both ends, we recommend using 8-channel ADC/DACs (e.g. Behringer ADA8000 or Focusrite Octopre mkII Dynamics) on the respective end(s)

Features

• Bidirectional transmission over up to 100m/330ft. using a single Cat5 cable
• Reliable, lossless, true bit-transparent transmission
• Near-zero latency (< 1µs)
• Compatible with any data format which can be sent over TOSLINK (ADAT, SPDIF, AC-3/Dolby Digital, DTS ...)
• Quality product "Made in Switzerland"
