Description

The SharkCopier DC (daisy chain capable duplicator) offers all the incredible capabilities and quality of the standard SharkCopier series with the added capability to connect multiple towers together that are all operated by a single source. Even though each tower can be operated independently, when they are connected together in a daisy chain configuration using a special serial cable, the SharkCopier DC can link over 60,000 towers together operated by a single source on the master tower. All units whether used on their own or connected are completely standalone and provide exact digital copies of CD's, DVD's, and Blu-ray discs depending on the type of drives installed in the units. Don't limit yourself when you can expand with the SharkCopier DC.
