I want to run two Behrigner digital crossovers, but I'm having trouble trying to figure out how to split the AES/EBU input signal between them. . I see there are amplified and passive solutions. I'd like to not over spend on this, but it doesn't look like there's any low cost, readily available solution. Any ideas greatly appreciated.

The DCX2496 can be linked to another DCX via the link connector.
I don't think it actually sends signal between them. It just allows you to control two of them with a PC at one time, at least that's the impression I get looking at all the diagrams.
I think I've found a solution. I'm going to buy a converter box that will convert the optical output on the DEQ2496 to AES/EBU. That, combined with the AES/EBU output that's already on the DEQ will give me two AES/EBU outputs to go to two DCX2496.
You cannot just split digital cables. These are terminated point-to-point transmission-lines. Each needs its own driver.
Thanks. I see that there are passive solutions available that generate two starting points from one end point, as well as active boxes that do it. The passive boxes attenuate the signal by 6db. I wonder if that would cause any problems for me. The makers of the passive box suggest that the amplified boxes are overkill for most applications unless the line lenghts are very long. The amplified boxes are several hundred dollars.
