Overview
3 Overview
The PT-1SPDIF is a high quality digital audio converter that accepts a digital
audio S/PDIF input and converts it to an optical TosLink® audio output.
The PT-2SPDIF is a high quality digital audio converter that accepts an optical
TosLink® audio input and converts it to a digital audio S/PDIF.
The PT-1SPDIF and PT-2SPDIF output the same data stream as the input,
without any conversion. In this way all existing and even future audio formats
are supported. Both are:
• 12V DC fed
• Housed in a smal l enclosu re
Achieving the best performance means:
• Connecting only good qu a lity connec tion cabl es, thu s av oiding
interference, deteriorat ion in sign al quali ty due t o poor m atch ing, and
elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality cables)
• Avoiding interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may
adversely influence signal quality and positioning your PT-1SPDIF and/or
PT-2SPDIF in a location free from moisture and away from excessive
sunlight and dust
