The Bridge Digital I/O Cage makes audio networking PRACTICAL. It's simple to install, easy to learn, and certain to reduce system costs. Compact enough for small applications, yet stackable for tremendous growth potential, it's design consists of seven inch rackmount digital I/O cages, each capable of handling 512 simultaneous audio channels on its backplane.
Units can be stacked to suit particular card complements (analog or digital input and output cards or optical network cards) but more significantly, cages can be separated by great distances and network audio through either bi-directional fiberoptic links or a single CAT-5 wire.
