Neutrik NA2-IO-DLINE Bi-Directional Dante Audio Interface

Neutrik NA2-IO-DLINE Bi-Directional Dante Audio Interface

Connect your legacy audio gear to the Dante world. The NA2-IO-DLINE is an end-of-network device. It is a breakout box which allows two channels of audio to be integrated into a Dante network. Simultaneously, NA2-IO-DLINE converts a Dante stream into analog audio signals. Hence, it is possible to use this tiny box to feed analog audio signals into the Dante network while at the same time receiving a mix from another Dante source.

Neutrik NA2-IO-DLINE is designed for harsh stage conditions. It therefore features lockable chassis connectors for both the audio and network connections. For fixed installations, the rubber protection can be removed. With optional mounting brackets or a rack panel, the box can be mounted below tables, in floor boxes, or in equipment racks.

Please note!
The Dante adapter can be connected to a Dante network via a standard 100 Mb/s twisted-pair Ethernet cable (CAT5e). This individual connection is responsible for the data transfer as well as for the power supply. Depending on the cable length and shield, we do not recommend installing cables parallel to power supply lines.
