The Drawmer D-Clock-R is a dedicated word clock distribution amplifier designed to provide maximum flexibility and reliability in professional digital audio environments. Housed in a 1U rackmount chassis, it builds upon the distribution capabilities of the original D-Clock, focusing exclusively on robust, high-quality word clock delivery without the measurement functionality.
Equipped with dual selectable BNC word clock inputs, the Drawmer D-Clock-R allows users to switch between two separate clock sources via a front panel control, ensuring uninterrupted operation and simplifying integration in redundant or complex clocking setups. Once a source is selected, the unit regenerates the word clock signal, delivering it simultaneously to twenty BNC outputs, four of which are conveniently located on the front panel for fast patching access. These outputs are re-buffered for signal integrity and feature an output impedance of 33 ohms, ensuring reliable transmission over longer cable runs.
The Drawmer D-Clock-R is particularly suited for applications where multiple digital devices need to be clocked from a common source. Its internal re-clocking circuit enhances signal quality and minimises jitter, while the front panel LEDs provide instant visual confirmation of clock source selection and power status. Termination for the inputs is switchable between 75 ohms and high impedance, supporting flexible system configurations and daisy-chaining.
Designed with a focus on stability, reliability and ease of use, the Drawmer D-Clock-R makes an ideal master clock distribution hub for digital recording studios, broadcast facilities and post-production environments requiring high channel counts.
