This Dante 2CH Analog Audio Decoder is an audio receiver based on the Dante Ultimo solution. It supports balanced/unbalanced audio output and 3-level gain adjustment. It receives audio signals from the transmitting end through the network (Dante), then decodes and outputs the audio as analog audio. It supports POE function for simplified single-cable installation.
Features
☆ Analog audio output supports balanced/unbalanced audio output (unbalanced: connect "+" and "GND")
☆ Audio sampling rate supports 44.1kHz, 48kHz and 96kHz (24bit)
☆ Dante solution supports AES67 RTP audio transmission
☆ Audio output supports 3-level gain adjustment: +18dBu, 0dBu (default) and -10dBV
☆ Supports DC 12V power supply and POE function (IEEE802.3af Class 0)
