Description
Single mode is available for MADI Converter.
Single Mode Optical Fibre Cables
"Singlemode" is available on request for all units and allows an operation within existing singlemode networks, without additional expensive converters.
Connectors
Like most other MADI devices, the RME MADI products use the common SC-Plug (IEC 874-19) for optical connection. The SC connector is compact and ensures a reproducible and constant connection quality. The SC duplex version combines two fibres. An automatic interlock prevents accidental interruption of the connection. The fibre type, explicitly required for optical MADI connections, must be a 50/125 µm or 62.5/125 µm multi-mode fibre (MM fibre).
Advantages of Optical Fibre Compared to Copper Cable
- Insensitive to electromagnetic disturbance
- Optical cables can be run parallel to power cables etc.
- No crosstalk, hum or potential differences
- No influence on audio quality also in long distance applications
- Considerably less weight
