At the InfoComm 2015 show in Orlando, Aviom (booth 721) is introducing the new D400 and D400-Dante A-Net distributors, designed to distribute power and digital audio data to Aviom personal mixing systems at a reduced cost.
The standard D400 has an A-Net input and is for users with an analog input module or a digital console card as the front end of their system, while the D400-Dante has Dante I/O instead of the A-Net input.
The D400-Dante allows up to 32 Dante channels to be routed to the personal mixing system, which makes connecting to a Dante-enable digital console or audio network as simple as plugging in a Cat-5 cable.
Up to eight personal mixers can be connected to each D400 or D400-Dante A-Net output, and an unlimited number of distributors can be used when creating larger systems with more than eight performers.
“The D400 and D400-Dante make designing a new Aviom personal mixing system even easier and more affordable,” explains Ray Legnini, Aviom product research and development manager. “For users with existing systems, the D400 and D400-Dante offer additional flexibility when it comes time to expand or upgrade a system.”
The D400 and D400-Dante are fully compatible with both the original Aviom Pro16 version of A-Net and the new Pro16e version of A-Net, the technology driving the A360 and A320 personal mixers that alsoh allow multiple 16-channel banks of monitoring content to be delivered over a single Cat-5 cable.
