Ecler BOB-22 Professional Dante/AES67 2×2 Channel Digital Audio Interface

BOB-22 is a digital audio interface, 2xMIC/LINE audio inputs and 2 LINE level audio outputs, Dante/AES67 (Audio Over IP) Break Out Box. It enables the conversion of up to 2 Dante/AES67 channels into 2 analogue audio LINE level output signals and vice versa, converting 2 MIC/LINE analogue audio input signals into 2 Dante/AES67 channels for transmission over an Ethernet network. The device features PoE (Power over Ethernet) for DC power directly from PoE-enabled Ethernet switches. An optional 24VDC external PSU is available (sold separately). BOB-22 is a generic Dante/AES67 device that can be used in combination with EclerNet / EclerPLEX / VIDA / HALO Dante devices from Ecler, or with any other third-party Dante/AES67 devices, but it is not a native EclerNet / EclerPLEX guest unit.
