Description
This Dante® 2CH XLR Input Adapter is an audio transmitter based on the Dante® Ultimo 2x2 solution. It converts two-channel balanced/unbalanced XLR analog audio into Dante® 2CH digital audio, then transmits the audio to the receiving end through network (Dante®). Analog audio input supports 5-level sensitivity adjustment. The adapter supports local USB-C port power supply and PoE function.
Features
☆ Two-channel XLR analog audio to Dante® 2CH digital audio
☆ Balanced/unbalanced XLR analog audio input
☆ Dante® audio sampling rate supports 44.1/48/88.2/96KHz@24bit
