Appsys ADS-8 Active ADAT/Toslink-Splitter and Repeater
The ADS-8 ADAT/Toslink Splitter allows you to connect any signal source to two sinks. The active design overcomes the limitations of traditional passive splitters: They essentially half the amount of light on each output, causing problems because the attenuated signal is too weak for proper transmission of high-speed data. In contrast, the ADS-8 receives the optical signal, converts it to an electrical signal which can be split without loss to the out put transmitters which operate on each port with full power. As a side effect, it acts as signal repeater which doubles the reach of each connection.
Key Features
- Reliable, lossless, true bit-transparent splitting of any signal
- Doubles maximum transmission distance of an optical connection from normally 5-10m to 10-20m, depending on the equipment used
- Near-zero latency
- All channels present on the input are available on both outputs
- Compatible with all audio formats which can be sent over TOSLINK
- Quality product “Made in Switzerland”
