AVN-DIO10 Dante® to 3G/HD/SD-SDI Embedder/De-Embedder
The easiest way to connect SDI equipment to the Dante® network, the AVN-DIO10 can be used for simultaneous embedding and de-embedding. This simple plug and play audio/video interface provides a convenient and elegant method of connecting legacy 3G/HD/SD-SDI equipment to the Dante® AoIP audio network.
The AVN-DIO10 takes an SDI feed, de-embeds up to 16 audio channels and places them on channels 1-16 on the Dante network, mapped using Dante Controller. It simultaneously takes the 16 input channels mapped to the device on Dante Controller and re-embeds them onto the SDI output.
Switches on the unit allow embedding of Dante channels onto the SDI output per channel pair and there are two modes of operation: Insert Mode enabled allows embedding to overwrite existing SDI audio selectively per channel pair. Insert Mode disabled clears any incoming audio channels on the SDI output and then allows selective embedding onto the SDI output per channel pair.
These switches are replicated in the web interface, so that they can be altered remotely, with a ‘Local Override’ option so that the hardware switches can still be used if required.
The unit can operate in either loop through mode where the input is fed to the output, or in generator mode where the input and output are completely independent to each other and the SDI output signal is provided by an integrated SDI video generator. This allows the unit to operate as an embedder only, without the need of an existing SDI feed, or as a separate de-embedder and embedder. In this mode, the input and output can be different formats. This is fully configurable through the web UI.
The unit supports both 48kHz and 96kHz sample rates in the embedded audio allowing for different sample rates in the de-embed and embed paths. When operating at 96kHz sample rate, the number of channels within the SDI signal are halved. A single group carries two channels rather than the four available at 48kHz.
Test Tone mode allows 1kHz, 2kHz, 3kHz and 4kHz signals to be output on channels 1 to 4 respectively, for any group where embedding is enabled. There is also a test tone mode for the de-embedder outputs where a 1KHz tone is placed on the transmitting Dante® channels. This is so that downstream SDI audio outputs and inputs can be tested without the need of Dante® or SDI sources.
It’s powered by Power over Ethernet (PoE), using Neutrik® EtherCON connectors, with primary and secondary ports for power and data redundancy. The AVN-DIO10 uses the latest Audinate Dante® chipsets so is AES67 and Dante Domain Manager® compliant. There are front panel LEDs to indicate network clock status, SDI lock status, AoIP Primary and AoIP Secondary link status, PoE Primary power and PoE Secondary power active.
