Dante transmitter with 4 audio channels

Description:

The AU-DTI4-TX is a 4-channel analogue audio transmitter for Dante®. With built-in support for Dante® technology, which extends and routes audio over standard Ethernet networks, this unit is an important part of a simpler and more flexible system for managing large audio systems than traditional physical point-to-point cabling.
Dante® eliminates the tangle of heavy and expensive multi-core analogue audio cables and replaces them with low-cost, easy-to-handle CAT 5 or CAT 6 cables, while maintaining the high quality expected from uncompressed digital audio.

Due to the packet-based nature of Ethernet data transmission, there is no need to worry about the traditional enemies of long-distance audio extension, such as analogue signal interference, crosstalk or signal attenuation. All this with the absolute minimum of latency (typically around 1 ms).

The unit has four analogue mono audio inputs and a Dante output port that can transmit up to four digital audio channels and is compatible with any standard Dante audio receiver to which the audio could be routed. Each audio input can optionally provide phantom power (5 V or 48 V), if required, from a connected audio source, such as a microphone, as well as gain level adjustment.

It is powered directly by PoE (Power over Ethernet), which allows for greater installation flexibility. Basic device configuration is provided by serial over USB while routing and network configuration management are provided by third-party control software.
