LINK to Show New Products at NAMM 2026 Connections specialist firm LINK will show a range of products at the NAMM Show, January 21-24 at the Anaheim Convention Center. New at NAMM will be the company's modular frames, stage box, and line systems for on-the-go, in-the-field configurations tailored to specific tours and corporate events. The products are designed to leverage a wide range of AES82 PCB widgets for reliable field terminations. The company says its modular PCB Widgets are reliable and cost-effective solutions for using standard CAT cabling to take advantage of multipin connectors and typical panel-mounted XLRs. Widgets, the company adds, are ideal building blocks to support easy field termination and unique panel configurations for sending analog audio, video, DMX, and balanced AES3 digital audio over multiple Cat5 or Cat6 cables. Ghost MK2 is a professional-grade 1/10 gigabit switch engineered for demanding AV environments. Seamlessly managed through Agora Controller's intuitive interface, its 14 Neutrik etherCON 10/100/1000 Mbit ports and 10Gb four-port fiber expansion ensure rock-solid connectivity for your audio, lighting, and video backbone. The product's front-panel OLED displays provide instant visibility of port status, bandwidth, and network health - critical information when running complex productions. With redundant power supplies, it delivers the reliability required for mission-critical live events. Agora Controller is purpose-built software that gives complete control over Agora switches and selected third-party gear (Netgear AV, HPE Aruba, Extreme) from a single interface. It is designed by AV veterans who understand show workflows and eliminate command-line headaches. It automatically discovers all your networked devices, regardless of IP configuration. Users can drag and drop to create device groups, select protocols (like Art-Net, sACN, Dante, or AVB), and patch them to ports on Fast 2, Ghost MK2, or H1 network switches. As productions scale in size and sophistication, the pressure on audio signal routing increases dramatically: more inputs, more outputs, tighter changeovers, and zero tolerance for compromise. To meet that reality, LINK is introducing two new routing solutions purpose-built for modern live, broadcast, and installed workflows. The new STAGELink Matrix series brings digitally controlled, patch-bay-style flexibility directly to the stage, enabling transparent microphone routing, splitting, and input switching, making it suitable for replacing legacy bantam patch bays in theatres and studios, or managing complex festival splits across multiple consoles while fully preserving phantom power and analog integrity. Complementing this, LINK's new auto-sensing distribution platform simplifies line-level signal management by automatically detecting analog or AES sources and actively splitting them while maintaining precise signal levels end-to-end. Together, these solutions eliminate friction at the most critical points in your signal chain, the company says. Several other products will be on display at the booth.
