Overview
The DMI-OPTO puts a DiGiCo Orange Box or 4REA4 onto an Optocore fibre loop. This version has ST fibre connectors for multi-mode fibre. With a second DMI card in the Orange Box it bridges Optocore to Dante, MADI, Waves and other formats.
How the versions differ: The code gives the connector (OPNC = opticalCON, OPST = ST, OPTO = HMA) and a trailing S means single-mode fibre; no S means multi-mode. The single-mode twin of this card is MODDMIOPSTS.
Highlights
- Optocore loop interface on a DMI card
- Up to 128 channels I/O at 48 kHz or 64 at 96 kHz
- ST fibre connectors
- Multi-Mode fibre
- 1G or 2G fibre speeds
Compatibility
Works with: DiGiCo Orange Box (either slot) and DiGiCo 4REA4. DiGiCo does not list this card for consoles; Quantum and SD12 use their own Optocore ports. All six versions:
- MODDMIOPNC: opticalCON, multi-mode
- MODDMIOPNCS: opticalCON, single-mode
- MODDMIOPST: ST, multi-mode
- MODDMIOPSTS: ST, single-mode
- MODDMIOPTO: HMA, multi-mode
- MODDMIOPTOS: HMA, single-mode

Forefront Tip
Multi-mode suits most touring Optocore systems. Check what fibre your racks and drums use first, as optics will not work over the wrong cable type. ST suits fixed installs patched through fibre panels.
