Any issues running Digilink cable in conduit with audio cables vs power cables?
I have 2 conduits from gear closet to my console and computer. One conduit to run DC (no AC) power cables from the console power supplies to the console and one to run 24 pair audio snakes to/from the 192 I/O's to the console. My thought is to run the 50' Digilink cable in the conduit with the audio snakes rather than putting it in the conduit with the power supply cables. I'm guessing the Digilink is low voltage, but will I encounter any noise or inductance issues in the audio lines or digital line by doing so? Conversely, would putting the Digilink in the power cable conduit cause any issues with the data passing through it?

Re: Any issues running Digilink cable in conduit with audio cables vs power cables?
Thanks, Chris. I tend to agree with you, but in that the data running in the Digilink cable is digital, I was concerned about possible noise leaking into the analog line level stuff in the 24 pr snake. I've placed a hard drive on top of some analog gear before and heard buzz and RF chatter noise which vanished just by lifting the drive. i don't know if the nature of the data stream in the Digilink is anything like that. There wouldn't be any inductive noise like you get with AC in the power lines since they are all DC.
Anyone else have thoughts about this? |
