4.2. Available models
ADX-32B
Transmits four ADAT Lightpipe connections and one MIDI data stream over a single Cat5 cable, up to a maximum
distance of 330ft (100m).
ADX-64B-PRO
Transmits eight ADAT Lightpipe connections, one MIDI data stream (two optional) and a wordclock signal over
two Cat5 cables. This device also supports extraction of a wordclock signal from any ADAT data stream.
The ADX-64B-PRO can also be used as dual-ADX-32B (it basically incorporates two ADX-32B devices in one case,
plus wordclock). If you daisy-chain from “Cat5 Connection 1” to “Cat5 Connection 2” with a short Cat5 cable, you
can duplicate all ADAT outputs, integrating monitoring or recording equipment without additional splitters.
4.3. Input and Return channel configuration
The system is designed with maximum flexibility in mind: The direction of data transmission can be selected
individually for each ADAT connection. Thus, the ADX-32B can be operated in 32/0, 24/8, 16/16, 8/24 or 0/32
TX/RX channel configuration, and the ADX-64B-PRO can be configured to 64/0, 56/8, 48/16 etc. to 0/64 of TX/RX
channels.
4.4. Daisy-chaining
For audio distribution to several places, up to 32 ADAT Multicore Extenders can be daisy-chained together. This
feature can be used for complex setups, e.g. multi-room audio distribution or the connection of additional
monitoring equipment. Each signal input can be located at an arbitrary ADX device in the chain, and is then
distributed to all other ADX devices. This allows very flexible setups for recording and monitoring.
