sCLK-OCX10ultra

 In a digital audio system, the clock is a critical element—the very heart of the system—that determines the precise timing of every digital device. As clock purity improves, sound becomes more precise, while accurate synchronization between devices becomes the key to unlocking the full potential of the system. The newly introduced sCLK-OCX10ultra is a next-generation high-end Master Clock Generator that takes the technology of the highly acclaimed sCLK-OCX10 to an entirely new level.

 Built upon ultra-precision oscillator technology and SOtM’s refined circuit design, the sCLK-OCX10ultra provides a stable and exceptionally clean reference clock. By supplying the same 10MHz reference clock to network players, digital sources, DACs, and other digital audio devices, it enables the entire system to operate according to a single, highly precise timing reference.

 With 10 independent Isolated BNC outputs, the sCLK-OCX10ultra can synchronize an entire digital audio system using a single master clock, eliminating the need for multiple master clocks even in complex setups. Each output features an independent isolation design to minimize unnecessary interference between connected devices when supplying the clock signal to multiple units simultaneously.

 Furthermore, phase noise, one of the key factors in determining master clock performance, has been significantly improved. Through oscillator technology evolved from its predecessor, the sCLK-OCX10ultra achieves an improvement of approximately 5 dB in phase noise at the low-frequency region around 10 Hz, further elevating the precision and performance of the master clock.

 Unlike conventional clock products that output angular digital square-wave signals, the sCLK-OCX10ultra utilizes SOtM’s proprietary analog circuit technology to generate a pure 10MHz analog sine-wave signal with extremely low noise. Going beyond simple sound tuning, this approach reflects SOtM’s unique technology for refining the clock signal—the foundation of digital audio—to achieve a more natural, delicate, and sophisticated musical presentation.

 With this ultra-precise clock synchronization, the audio system delivers a more stable soundstage, a more natural sense of space, and greater refinement in musical detail. It preserves the delicate character of the sound across the entire frequency range while vividly conveying the dynamic energy of each instrument. In particular, the mid- and low-frequency ranges gain a deep, weighty texture and a rich sense of musical density reminiscent of the natural and immersive presentation associated with high-end analog reel-to-reel decks and turntables.

 Beyond simply reproducing sound, the sCLK-OCX10ultra brings out the subtle nuances, depth of space, individual energy of instruments, and artistic emotion embedded within the music, revealing a more complete and immersive soundstage.

 Experience a new level of digital audio with the sCLK-OCX10ultra.

FAQ

Normally 10MHz signal use 50 ohm cable. And word clock or SPDIF signal use 75 ohm cable.

If you want to connect audio signal or clock signal in long distance like CATV signal, 75 ohm is better.
But, for most cases, audio application is not needed to connect in long distances.
