Miniature Series
Super High-Density Coax Patching System
The ProPatch
®
Miniature (PPM) Series is an all new Super High-Density Coax (SHDC) patching
system designed for High Definition (HD), SDI, AES audio, 5.1 and 7.1 audio applications where
coax medium is preferred but space is at a premium. The system is available in both 1 and 1.5 rack
unit configurations. The 1 rack unit panel features a patent-pending pullout designation strip that
dramatically increases space for text, and a high-density 2x48 circuit configuration of ports. The
1.5 rack unit panel features 4x48 ports.
The new SHDC jack features a unique patent-pending switchable termination system that allows
the user to select terminating and non-terminating 75 W functions on each circuit pair. The
normal-through system is also available in a straight-through configuration for tie-line panels and
applications where normals are not required. The SHDC high-performance normalling and straight-
through LCC jacks are rated to SMPTE 424M HD standard. The SHDC AES jacks are rated for AES
digital audio and analog video transmission. Both versions feature modular screwless mounting,
circuit identification icons on the rear of the jack, 10,000 insertion/withdrawal cycles and are fully
qualified to MIL-STD 202 for the ultimate in durability.
The system features two options. ADC’s patented push-pull LCC connector technology on the
backplane, or standard 1.0/2.3 connectors and ADC's patented LCC and LCP connectors terminate
like a BNC using standard tooling.
