Midas MDS-AS 80 Description

The Midas MDS-AS 80 is purpose-built for live sound professionals seeking high-channel-count audio networking with maximum system redundancy. Designed to convert HyperMAC to dual redundant 1GBit HMAC connections, it provides seamless failover and switching thanks to robust FPGA technology. Ideal for use with flagship Midas systems such as the HD96 console, the MDS-AS 80 ensures uninterrupted performance even in demanding scenarios. Its auto-ranging, dual redundant power supply offers added security during critical operations, while the front-panel indicators provide cable state feedback and redundancy monitoring. With AES50-compatible RJ-45 ports for copper snake connections and industry-standard optical connectors, this unit supports both copper and fiber configurations. The compact 1U rackmount design ensures easy integration into any touring rack or install setup, and its rugged build makes it ready for the rigors of the road.
