Description
 
This compact and well-designed transport provides all of the digital ins-and-outs you'll need for easy PC/Audio connectivity — at a bargain price.
  • SPDIF input and output 24-96 KHz
  • USB 2.0 input support 16 bit 48 kHz
  • Runs with 12V battery or power supply (included)
  • CM-108 USB audio I/O controller
  • 74VHC04 CMOS inverter for low noise and high speed (one for each channel)
  • Pulse PE-65612 isolation transformer for improved transmitter/receiver circuitry balance, and reduced common mode noise and EMI
  • Plug & play with Mac 9.x up, Mac OSX, Windows 2000, XP and Vista (no Windows 95 or 98).
A compact and well-executed design, the Pop Pulse PC Digital Link II is housed in a sturdy and anodized aluminum case. BPCB build quality and components are very good.  

When a USB input is used (24-48KHz) provides I2S (see below), BNC, optical, coaxial or balanced (XLR) digital output.

With S/PDIF input (24-96khz) you have output choices of coaxial, optical, BNC or balanced (XLR).(See diagram)

The unit can be powered either by the USB (only USB to S/PDIF is used), the 12VDC power supply that is included with the transport, or a 12VDC battery power supply.

Plug the PC Digital Link II via USB into your Mac or Windows computer, then on to an outboard DAC. On a Mac, iTunes using AIFF delivers excellent sound quality. On a Windows system, ripping with EAC to FLAC and FOOBAR for playback provides great sonic performance as well.

For more demanding applications such as mix-down or transfer in digital recording, the Transport allows for a straightforward approach with ample connections. Even though some digital recorders and workstations have different and unmatched connections, you can still make transfers without leaving the digital realm making the Tranportt an indispensable tool for digital recording!

I2S , or Inter-IC Sound, or Integrated Interchip Sound, is an electrical serial bus interface standard used for connecting digital audio devices and technologies such as compact disc (CD) players, digital sound processors, and digital TV (DTV).. It is most commonly used to carry PCM information between the CD transport and the DAC in a CD player.  By handling audio data separately from clock signals and by separating the data and clock signals, I2S eliminates time-related errors that cause jitter (and eliminates the need for anti-jitter devices). I2S uses Ethernet-spec connection hardware (8P8C plugs and jacks, and Cat-5e and above cabling)

Comes with USB cable, power supply and external battery supply cable. The unit is plug-and-play and intuitive to use.  (We are currently working on a manual and will make it available for download as soon it is completed.)

Pro Transport is great new product! June 5, 2008
Reviewer: Richard Eilers from in transit to left coast  
I have used a UD-10 for USB/SPDIF conversion into a digital HT receiver for a while. I was looking for a 12v version for an eventual all 12v DC music system (solar powered). Mike sent one of these for me to check out. It works as well as the UD-10 soundwise, which is excellent and adds more hookup options and 12v SLA power capabilities. Great product! Great price! Great sound!
