Link, the first manufacturer to introduce printed circuit board based modular snakes and stageboxes over a decade ago, is now introducing the first hybrid multi-protocol enabled modular digital snake system.
The primary objective of DGlink is to offer a solution that will replace, or integrate with, traditional audio distribution systems (analoguee and digital) during live applications, utilizing one or multiple, digital transport protocol standards over Cat 5 or 6 cables. The DGlink modular touring grade digital audio distribution snake (48 kHz/24-bit), is designed for live applications leveraging the architecture of traditional Stage Boxes.
Supporting up to 64 mic/line level inputs and up to 64 line level outputs (foldback and drive sends), DGlink offers remote control of all stage box functions including control of phantom power, polarity and gain settings, while maintaining a modular system that supports multiple configurations of inputs/outputs and digital/analogue 19" panels.
