AC-MXNET-1G-DANTE-DV2 provides a stream break-out point to pass Dante signals to other Dante-enabled devices, such as Dante-capable DSP Matrix amplifiers or self-powered Dante-equipped speakers. The MXnet Evolution II platform provides system designers with flexible endpoint options while simultaneously consolidating wiring paths.
Installations that systematically deploy Dante audio but segregate it to an independent network can now simplify long-haul transport cabling into single destination endpoint routes. Encoded Dante streams are ferried from AC-MXNET-1G-DANTE-EV2 encoders to any AC-MXNET-1G-DANTE-DV2 decoder endpoint, using these as break-out bridges to leapfrog encoded signals closer to additional Dante devices. For example, Dante-enabled amplifiers can be strategically located physically closer to the speaker systems that they will power, potentially overcoming Audinate’s 100-meter Category cable distance threshold for Dante while also minimizing the lengths of wire connecting passive analog speakers. Dante-equipped self-amplified speakers may also take advantage of merged centralized stream routes. Imaginative creativity will quickly turn into material and labor savings.
The AC-MXNET-1G-DANTE-DV2 retains the cool-running, energy-efficient, chip-top fan-free design characteristics of AVPro Edge’s MXNET-1G-EVO II series by incorporating Dante I/O software into the operating system chipset, which eliminates the thermal increase from the active device daughter board in previous implementations of Dante across the MXnet ecosystem. The AC-MXNET-1G-DANTE-DV2 and its companion encoder, the AC-MXNET-1G-DANTE-EV2, each securely fit into the same accessory rack holder as standard MXnet EVO II encoders and decoders.
