Topic: ADI2pro How to place the "breakout cable" away?

Hello ,
I have the adi2pro ae on a sideboard. I have a digital player that I connected via AES (15 meters line). So far so good.

The problem:
Now I have this break out cable, along with chunky AES clutches on the sideboard.

Current solution: I have packed the breakout harness into a cable box.
I'm not satisfied with that.

My idea and question:
I would like to put the cable whip in another (invisible) place
Can I use this "extension cable"?

Do I have to pay attention to something?

Would be glad about a tip, advice,
Thank you
Frank

Hallo ,
ich habe den adi2pro ae auf einem Sideboard. Einen digitalen Zuspieler habe ich über AES (15 Meter Leitung) angeschlossen. Soweit so gut.

Das Problem:
Nun hab ich diese Kabelpeitsche, samt klobigen AES Kupplungen auf dem Sideboard liegen. 

Aktuelle Lösung: Ich habe den Breakoutkabelbaum in eine Kabelbox gepackt.
Bin damit aber nicht zufrieden.

Meine Idee und Frage:
Ich würde die Kabelpeitsche gerne an einem anderen (unsichtbaren) Ort legen
Kann ich dazu dieses "Verlängerungskabel" benutzen?

Muss ich was beachten?

Würde mich über einen Tipp, Ratschlag freuen,

It's quite obvious that a 15 pin connector will not work on a 9-pin socket. I am not aware of a fully matching extension cable, but a straight 9 Pin D-sub extension for computers, with all pins connected, should work if it is not longer than 1 meter.

Oh, I see it now - 15 pins on the picture... I thougt it was a 9 pin seriel cabel.  Sorry.

Ok. 1 m max, 9 pin d-sub extension, fully connected

1 meter could be a bit short, but a try is worth it.

Thank you very much.

A short feedback:

I buy a serial extension Cable (original description:: Seriell RS232 Verlängerung Kabel DB9M Zum F 9 Polig Männlich Zum Weiblich 2 m Schwarz ), black color (because of AE - Edition) - works! Yes 2 meters, I risked that and it works on my setup :-)

Thx and greetings

Re: ADI2pro How to place the "breakout cable" away?

The biggest risk when using such a cable is the SPDIF coaxial in and out not working correctly anymore, due to the low voltage/high frequency signal and unbalanced transmission. AES should indeed be fine.
