It is recommended that all cables be tested for error-free performance at lengths 20% to 25% greater than lengths

small additional amounts of latency, so should not be used unless necessary.
10.5.4.2. Passive splitters
One single AES3 input may be split into more signals using a simple passive splitter. Splitters provide a convenient
and low cost solution when only a few additional signals are required, and in situations where cable lengths are
short. Attenuation is minimal, but there is no refreshing of the signal.
