The DN9680 provides a high channel count solution to the 100 metre limitation that Ethernet and CAT5 cabling imposes on the physical size of AES50 networks. A pair of DN9680 units allow up to eight AES50 connections (192 bidirectional channels) to be extended by up to 1,000 metres via single mode optical fibre or 100 metres via CAT5 copper cable, greatly simplifying long haul cable connections due to the use of a single bidirectional snake cable.
Features
- Multiplexes up to 8 AES50 connections into one optical fibre cable or CAT5 cable
- Extends AES50 connections up to 1,000 m with optical fibre or 100 m with CAT5 cable
- High channel capacity with 192 bidirectional channels @ 96 kHz
- Internal “AES Grade 1” temperature-compensated word clock (1 ppm)
- Neutrik etherCON* connectors used for AES50 ports and copper snake connection
- Dual-fibre Neutrik opticalCON DUO* connector used for optical fibre snake connection
- Internal web server allows browser-based configuration via Ethernet control port
- Rugged 1U rackmount chassis for durability in portable applications
- Auto-ranging universal switch-mode power supply
