Appsys Pro Audio ADX-16 Bidirectional ADAT/TOSLINK Extender Kit

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

• Near-zero latency (1us)
