Dante & AES67 Audio over IP
Replace analog snake runs with scalable, flexible network audio. Our Dante and AES67 kits handle everything from simple point-to-point to complex multi-venue networks, including our custom microwave transport solution.
Why network audio?
A standard Cat6 cable replaces 48 channels of analog snake. Dante and AES67 provide sub-millisecond latency, automatic routing and redundancy on standard IP infrastructure. Scale from 2 channels to 512+ without re-cabling. Our professionally maintained inventory of Dante I/O, MADI bridges and AV-managed switching is production-tested on major broadcast and touring events.
Ideal scenarios
- Multi-console shows sharing inputs over a network
- FOH to monitor splits via Dante instead of analog
- Broadcast feed distribution to multiple record stations
- Interfacing Avid MADI to Dante ecosystems
- Remote stage boxes via CAT6 or fiber SFP
- Microwave transport between buildings or across venues
Microwave transport kit
Our proprietary Dante and AES67 over microwave system provides point-to-point audio transport over line-of-sight wireless links: cross-venue splits, inter-building audio, or any run where fiber is not practical. Timing sync is handled via GNSS (with optional RF over fiber GNSS distribution) or Iridium satellite for locations without a clear sky view.
- ProtocolDante / AES67
- TransportMicrowave (5 GHz)
- RangeUp to 500 m LOS
- Latency<5 ms end-to-end
- ChannelsUp to 64 bidirectional
- Timing SyncGNSS or Iridium satellite
