How Far will it Go?

The AES/EBU format was designed to go reasonable distances, at 44.1 kS/s
and 48 kS/s. Figure 22 and Figure 23 below show it over 16 m and 94 m using
average cables. The waveform at 94 m can still be decoded, although it is quite
degraded. Cable delay is about 5.6 nsecs/metre.
At 96 kS/s (twice the data rate the format was designed for) the allowed cable
length is less. Figure 24 and Figure 25 below show this over 16 m and 94 m. At
16 m the waveforms are still very good, but at 94 m they are really quite
unreliable.
We recommend restricting 96 kS/s cable runs to 20 m or less, and using good
cable near this length.
