You are viewing the Aphex Anaconda 828M (MADI) system which comprises two identical units.The Aphex Anaconda 828M is a very versatile unit that can be used in a studio or live set-up to
transfer your system into a digital snake / multicore system that unlike other systems includes
MADI, LAN Networking, Word Clock and ADAT. All running with a redundant system just in case 
one of your fibre link fails. Now you don't get all of that on any other system.You can convert your older digital mixers into a system that uses MADI, Multi-mode Fibre Digital snake / multicore with all the other benefits.The system is in great condition and 100% working order with the usual marks from being racked up in a flight case.There is only one other on Ebay but it is not the MADI version but still price at £544 each and you need two of them.Send a message if you have any questions or call 07803 955866Here is the official blurb....
64 Channel Bi-Directional Digital Audio Snake SystemThe Aphex™ Model 828M is a point-to-point 64 channel bi-directional snake designed to easily and cost effectively connect digital or analog audio systems as a mic snake or a drive snake for industry standard preamplifiers, consoles, DAWs and recorders.The Anaconda Model 828M features two MADI outputs as well as pass-through for digital audio at 96kHz sample rate via SMUX protocol.
An Anaconda system is comprised of two identical units on either end of an optical fiber run. There are eight ADAT optical inputs and outputs on each unit for local interfacing. Word clock is generated by an ultra-precision voltage-controlled crystal; external word clock is fed through one BNC with 75 Ohm termination; word clock distribution through eight BNCs; and one RJ-45 for control and metering/status feedback for products such as the Aphex 188 and 1788A mic preamplifiers.Each unit has two fiber transceivers with automatic failure switching for redundancy. The transceivers use industry standard SC connectors for use with low cost, readily available multimode fiber. Two internal power supplies automatically switch if one fails. The units are designed to be mounted in the rear of a rack for ease of connection and space efficiency.
