Looking for a reliable circuit for the level conversion from SPDIF to
TTL. I then intend to feed it to an RS485 driver and into a transformer
for transmission via CAT5e

I figure all that needs done is to put it through a transformer to adjust
for native impedance and use Cat5e.

Perhaps...?

LVDS receivers might also work.

True, but I need to fan out.
Getting TTL (ish) enough to drive a 485 chip from a 0.6V SPDIF signal?
Analog comparator?

Thanks - a slightly different approach to the one I was thinking about.
The SPDIF input goes into a 485 differential receiver.
You think that would work reliably given the low SPDIF voltage?

If so, I could just do a 485 diff i/p straight through to a 485 diff o/p
feeding 3 xformers (I need a 1 to 3 fanout, isolated)
