2-Channel Analog Audio Input DANTE™ Encoder

DANTE™ Encoder

The ultra-compact AudioControl ACP-DANTE-E-POE is a two-channel, 100% lossless, Dante™ network audio encoder for Dante or AES67 audio streams. The ACP-DANTE-E-POE is configurable for industry-standard sampling rates from 44.1 kHz to 96 kHz in 16-, 24-, or 32-bit word lengths to encode analog stereo signals into Dante for network distribution to compatible Dante devices.

The compact form factor ACP-DANTE-E-POE may be placed strategically wherever Dante encoding of an analog or digital source device is required. It can be powered either from the included 5 V PSU or via PoE if desired. Any AVPro Edge MXnet 1G PoE switch may be used stand-alone or configured for Dante network traffic, providing a transfer distance of up to 100 meters (328 feet) with correctly implemented CAT5e or CAT6A infrastructure. A stereo analog RCA input pair accompanies a TOSLINK digital input to easily place usable legacy audio sources such as FM tuners, various format tape machines, or high-capacity CD changers onto a Dante network for distribution at distances up to 100 meters (328 feet) while retaining original, full fidelity into Dante-compatible devices such as AudioControl CM series or Director Series amplifiers.

Dante Controller, downloadable free from Audinate, is required to perform initial configuration, encoding parameters, Dante stream subscriptions, network settings, and AES67 audio support adjustments. For static installations, these may be set-and-forget adjustments. When powered and connected to a Dante network, the ACP-DANTE-E-POE is auto-discovered for easy identification.
