This rackmount, 12-port
optical patchbay features an independent precision PLL for each optical
input, carefully reclocking all incoming ADAT (or S/PDIF Toslink signals).
Easy-access routing controls mean no menus to navigate. With Apache, you
can route an input to one or more outputs; store/recall 12 complete routing
setups (or any number via MIDI SysEx); and expand the system via multiple
Apaches. Retail: $799 ($649 direct from manufacturer). Gefen's ex-tend-it
USB-500 extends USB peripherals up to 1,650 feet from the operating computer,
using a fiber-optic transmission system. Price: $949. Gepco International
is expanding the 5526GFC Series of 110-ohm AES/EBU digital audio multipairs
to include the 24-pair 552624GFC. The 552624GFC features an exacting 110-ohm
impedance, low jitter and attenuation, ease of termination, and flexibility.
Pair construction consists of two stranded 26-gauge conductors, foam polypropylene
insulation, 100% foil shield with drain wire, and color-coded/alphanumerically
numbered PVC jacket. The outer jacket is Gepco's extra-flexible GEP-FLEX
compound. The 552624GFC is rated UL-type CM. HAVE introduces a
high-quality family of audio snakes with two modified, reinforced and
heavily protected sections that fit under any door with only The FXT-401 FireWire extender ($950) allows data transfer to 165 feet at 100 mps or 66 feet at 200 mps between a pair of IEEE1394-1995, 1394-a2000 compliant interfaces. It uses 6-pin 1394 I/O and SMI jacks with proprietary FEX Series cables ($125 to $250). Hosa D-subsHosa's new D-sub cables
include the DBD Series for analog audio, HD I/O or SMPTE surround in 1.5-
to 15-foot lengths ($19 to $55); and the DES Series, wired for standard
pin AES/EBU in 5- to 15-foot lengths ($34 to $80). Used in a pair (transmit
and receiver $199.95/each), the MLA-XLR system extends the range of MIDI
cables to over 1,000 feet, using standard, balanced audio XLR cables.
No configuration is required, and these interface with other MLA-1 and
MLA-10 units in a network application. No wiring necessary. Size: 4.25x4.7x1.6
inches. Weight: 3 lbs. The Audio Engine digital
audio crosspoint router accepts both analog and digital inputs and can
output audio in analog or digital formats. In addition to standard crosspoint
routing capability, the Audio Engine can mix and sum signals and perform
various processing functions. A single Engine will handle up to 64x64
AES inputs/outputs; up to 32 Engines can be linked for large applications.
See us at AES booth #1337. Zaolla cables offer superior digital transfer with less jitter at faster rates and longer S/PDIF runs than OFC copper. The 75W Series ZWDC (BNC) and DCR (S/PDIF) are built using solid silver (Ag) conductor, FPE foam, OFC shield, silver-plated braided copper, PTFE tape, and dual layers of high-flex matte jacketing. Zaolla 110W ZAES AES CableZaolla offers superior
digital transfer with less jitter at faster rates, and longer AES runs
than OFC copper. The 110W ZAES (AES) uses paired silver conductors, PE
dielectrics, PTFE tape, solid silver-braided shield and dual layers of
matte jacketing.  Z-Systems
