DIGITAL AUDIO CABLES
DIGITAL AUDIO CABLES
Extra-low loss 110S AES/EBU wide bandwidth, digital
audio twisted-pair cable. The DS4 series features an
extended 25MHz bandwidth, ultra-low attenuation,
mechanical stability, and a precision 110S imped-
ance. With the lowest available attenuation and
precision impedance specifications, the DS4
series allows for longer runs of AES3 format
digital audio over twisted-pair cable. The
extended 25MHz bandwidth is compliant
with the AES3 standard for transmission of
digital audio at sampling rates up to
192kHz. Available in easy-to-terminate
versions for permanent installation and
an extra-flexible version for rack
patching or portable cables.
