Bittree's new 2 x 32 AES 75-ohm unbalanced Audio Patchbay was developed specifically for today's digital audio environment, and serves as the ideal foundation for lower-cost, more reliable and easier-to-install digital audio patching systems.

The key lies in the patchbay's hybrid bantam/BNC jack, featuring a patent-pending 75-ohm bantam jack with a BNC rear interface. The new jack - coupled with Bittree's new 75-ohm patchcord - helps you easily and reliably connect equipment using existing or new 75-ohm coaxial infrastructures.

The result is a durable patchbay designed specifically for the growing number of facilities using 75-ohm unbalanced digital audio for routers and new-generation VTRs.

Aside from the ease and reliability of the AES 75-ohm Audio Patchbay, it can also provide exceptional cost savings. Up until now, many installations have been using higher-end video patchbays for their 75-ohm digital audio, simply for the convenience of the BNC rear connectors. But the new AES 75-ohm hybrid bantam/BNC audio patchbay brings you the same convenience and the same performance - all at a lower price point.

In addition to the lower outright cost, the new 75-ohm audio patchbay also lets you reclaim your existing video patchbays from audio duty, saving you money on future upgrades and installations. Other savings come from using the new lower cost 75-ohm bantam patchcords instead of mini-WECO patchcords when using video patchbays, or from eliminating the need for costly adapters and baluns when using traditional audio patchbays.
