ATEN AD400E DSP Mixer 4-CH Analog Input and Dante Output

The AD400E converts 4 channels of balanced/unbalanced microphone/line level audio signals into Dante packets to work with Dante-compatible devices.
It is also AES67 compliant, enhancing interoperability between various audio network protocols and devices. The device supports 24-bit audio and offers sample rate options of 44.1k, 48k, 88.2k, and 96 kHz to meet various commercial application requirements.
The professional preamplifier circuit of the AD400E provides a wide dynamic range, high signal headroom, and excellent signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Phantom power (+48V) can be activated for each individual input and supports condenser microphones with minimal signal distortion.
