KLOTZ CLRJAESOP

A network cable has four pairs of twisted wires, each with characteristic wave impedance of 100 ohms. Wouldn’t it be practical if the cable could be used to send four audio signals (analogue or AES/EBU), or even four DMX signals? Now this is possible – thanks to the new KLOTZ CATLink series. These multicore systems comprise rugged aluminium housing (based on our popular StraightLINK Series) with integrated etherCON socket on one end and a 4-channel pigtail up to 1.5 m in length on the other. The AES/EBU patch cable we use is our OT1000 – a highly flexible cable with low external diameter that masters the task with ease. Because clear channel labelling and colour-coding are a given with KLOTZ products, distinguishing the individual channels is simple. Eight (!) different product models are available, spaning XLR 3-pin female and male (AES/EBU), XLR 5-pin. female and male (DMX) and hybrids RJ45/etherCON for 10/100MB/s plus 2x XLR 3-pin female and male (CAT and AES/EBU). They cover every connection and cabling need. We always (!) recommend using a network conductor with overall shield (e.g. our RC5EE Cable) as a connection cable, to ensure the four separate channels share a common earth.
