Product Overview

The Audinate Dante AVIO 1-Channel Analog Output Adapter converts a single Dante audio network channel to a balanced analog line-level XLR output, allowing integrators to connect analog power amplifiers, powered speakers, or signal processors directly to an existing Dante infrastructure. Designed for commercial AV installations where not all endpoints support IP audio, this Dante analog output adapter eliminates the need to replace existing analog gear. It supports sample rates up to 96 kHz, configurable gain and attenuation, and is fully compatible with AES67 and Dante Domain Manager.

Product Description

The Dante AVIO 1-Channel Analog Output adapter provides a direct path from a Dante audio network to any balanced analog destination power amplifiers, loop amplifiers, analog signal processors, or any device with an XLR or line-level input. Single-channel deployment makes it cost-effective for spot integration points: overflow areas, assistive listening systems, or legacy endpoints that sit alongside newer networked gear.

The adapter delivers high-performance analog output with better than 100dB dynamic range and signal-to-noise ratio, less than 0.01% THD at +4dBu, and a flat frequency response from 20Hz to 20kHz (0.5dB). Maximum signal level is +18dBu, with gain and attenuation configurable via Dante Controller. It is powered exclusively via 802.3af PoE no separate power supply required. The polycarbonate enclosure is built for repeated handling and the unit auto-discovers on the network as soon as it is connected, with no configuration beyond Dante Controller routing.

Key Features

• Single-Channel Balanced XLR Output Delivers one channel of line-level analog audio at up to +18dBu to any balanced analog destination.
• Up to 96 kHz Sample Rate Supports 44.1, 48, 88.2, and 96 kHz sample rates for high-resolution audio distribution.
• Configurable Gain/Attenuation Output level adjustable via Dante Controller; default is +4dBu with additional settings at 0dBu, 0dBV, and -10dBV.
• High-Performance Analog Output Dynamic range >100dB, SNR >100dB, THD <0.01% at +4dBu, frequency response 20Hz20kHz (0.5dB).
• PoE Powered Operates on 802.3af Class 1 PoE; no batteries or separate power supply required.
• AES67 Support Compatible with AES67 RTP transport for integration into mixed-protocol IP audio environments.
• Dante Domain Manager Ready Supports DDM for enterprise security, access control, and centralized device management.
• Plug-and-Play Operation Auto-discovers on the Dante network upon connection; managed entirely through Dante Controller software.
