Dante® to AES-3id BNC Stereo Input & Output

The AVN-DIO07 is a Dante to AES-3id digital input and output audio convertor from the Sonifex DIO range. It features stereo AES-3id digital audio inputs and outputs on BNC connectors, and one Neutrik EtherCon® connector for direct connection to a Dante AoIP network. Audio and power are delivered via the EtherCON® connection, supporting PoE for simplified installation. The unit incorporates Audinate Dante chipsets and is compliant with AES67 and Dante Domain Manager.

Like all Sonifex DIO interfaces, it provides a simple plug-and-play solution for connecting analogue and digital audio equipment to Dante networks, with configuration handled via Dante Controller. It is housed in a rugged aluminium enclosure with provisions for desk mounting, and an optional accessory, AVN-DIORK, allows multiple units to be installed on a 19″ rack-mount shelf.
