Hosa Technology CDL-313 Overview

The CDL-313 from Hosa is an inexpensive solution to digital connectivity. The unit is a high quality, digital link, allowing simultaneous transfer of two channels of digital-audio in either or both directions between AES/EBU on XLR connectors and S/PDIF on RCA coaxial.

Some manufacturers' DAWs, sound cards or DAT recorders have only S/PDIF outputs and some offer only AES/EBU inputs, or vice versa. The CDL-313 offers a simple solution for making transfers without leaving the digital realm. Serial Copy Management System is disabled when transferring from S/PDIF to AES/EBU.

Transfers AES/EBU digital audio signals to S/PDIF digital audio and vice versa
Simultaneous conversion in both directions if needed
Tracks remain in the digital realm - no resampling required
Inexpensive connectivity solution

Radial always make solid gear

Great company. I own several pieces of their gear and it's always rugged, well-built, and delivers top notch sound quality.

Needs Better Power

By George
Rated 3 out of 5
Date: 2020-11-30

I purchased to utilize a high end D/A Converter. The power Wall Wart has a high pitched hum that is distracting and requires the power supply to be hidden away to minimize the noise in the listening environment. Overall, it adds to the noise in the room. I'd pay additional to have a better power supply which doesn't make noise.

question

Difference between this and the Hosa ODL-312?
Asked by: Anonymous
I believe that the ODL 312 is set up for optical inputs and the CDL-313 is coaxial. I use the coaxial and it works perfectly.
