AVN-DIO03 Dante to Headphone Outputs (1/4” & 3.5mm Jacks) With Volume Control & Limiter

DIO03

The AVN-DIO03 is Dante AoIP network-to-headphones convertor in the Sonifex DIO range of Dante input/output devices. It features a single stereo headphone output available on two connections for 1/4" and 3.5mm jacks and a volume control for headphones level. A limiter with threshold setting and LED indication can be switched in to prevent over-shooting and protect hearing. 


The front panel potentiometer adjusts headphone volume from mute (fully anticlockwise) to +6dB of gain when fully clockwise. This is useful if the Dante stream level is low and requires boosting.


A simple headphone limiter is included to prevent hearing damage by limiting the audio level sent to the headphones. The limit level can be set using a trimmer adjustment tool, or small flat blade screwdriver, between approximately -12dBu (fully anticlockwise) and 0dBu (fully clockwise). 


When limiting, the blue limit LED illuminates. This should prompt you to turn the headphone volume down until the blue LED extinguishes, as audio quality will be reduced whilst the limiter is active.

An on/off toggle switch turns the high pass filter on or off and when enabled, it acts on frequencies below 125Hz at a rolloff of 6dB/octave. 


Phantom power is enabled/disabled via a toggle switch on the front panel and when enabled, a 48V DC supply is provided to power an appropriate microphone. A red LED illuminates to show when phantom is enabled.


A front panel audio level LED helps to set the gain and shows the audio level being sent to the Dante network.


Note: If using a phantom powered microphone, it may be necessary to earth the unit using the rear panel earth tag to eliminate mains hum, depending on the nature of your PoE supply.

AVN-DIO10 Dante® to 3G/HD/SD-SDI Embedder/De-Embedder

The easiest way to connect legacy SDI equipment to the Dante® network, the AVN-DIO10 can be used for simultaneous embedding and de-embedding. This simple plug and play audio/video interface provides a convenient and elegant method of connecting legacy 3G/HD/SD-SDI equipment to the Dante® AoIP audio network.


The AVN-DIO10 takes an SDI feed, de-embeds the 16 audio channels and places them on channels 1-16 of the Dante network, mapped using Dante Controller. It simultaneously takes the 16 input channels mapped to the device on Dante Controller and re-embeds them onto the SDI output.


Switches on the unit allow embedding of Dante channels onto the SDI output per channel pair and there are two modes of operation: Insert Mode enabled allows embedding to overwrite existing SDI audio selectively per channel pair. Insert Mode disabled clears any incoming audio channels on the SDI output and then allows selective embedding onto the SDI output per channel pair.


A Test Tone Mode allows 1kHz, 2kHz, 3kHz and 4kHz signals to be output on channels 1 to 4 respectively, for any group where embedding is enabled. This is so that downstream SDI audio outputs can be tested without the need of Dante sources.


It’s powered using Power over Ethernet (PoE), using Neutrik EtherCON connectors, with primary and secondary ports for power and data redundancy. The AVN-DIO10 uses the latest Audinate Dante ® chipsets so is AES67 and Dante Domain Manager® compliant.


There are front panel LEDs to indicate network clock status, SDI lock status, AoIP Primary and AoIP Secondary link status, PoE Primary power and PoE Secondary power active.


A web interface is available for firmware updates, status information and network settings.


The AVN-DIO10 is supplied with a belt-clip, shoulder strap hooks (but not the strap) and an underdesk mounting plate. Up to 3 of the AVN-DIO10 units can be rackmount in the 1U AVN-DIORK.
