Audibax Pro R44io Dante - Compact 12V analog/Dante 4x4 interface for installation and rental

The Audibax Pro R44io Dante is a bidirectional converter that converts between balanced analog audio and Dante network audio . In a very compact format, it incorporates 4 analog inputs and 4 outputs (balanced/unbalanced) and a 4x4 Dante link to integrate analog sources and destinations into audio over IP infrastructures. It operates with 12 V DC power and can be used with an 802.3af PoE switch by adding a PoE splitter , which facilitates its deployment in lightweight racks, technical enclosures or behind existing equipment.

Its electronics offer a 20 Hz–20 kHz (±1 dB) response , THD < 0.02 % and professional working levels, with +8 dBu maximum input (at 0 dB gain) and +20 dBu maximum balanced output. Thus, the R44io Dante is a versatile piece for fixed installation , corporate AV , education , worship and rental , when it is required to convert or extend analog signals through the network.

Main features

• 4×4 Conversion : 4 analog inputs and 4 outputs (balanced/unbalanced) to/from Dante network.
• Audio performance : 20 Hz–20 kHz (±1 dB), THD < 0.02 % .
• Pro Levels : Max input +8 dBu (0 dB gain); Max output +20 dBu balanced; 200 Ω output impedance.
• Flexible power supply : 12 V DC or via PoE 802.3af using PoE splitter .
• Ultra-compact format : 123 × 75 × 35 mm , black, easy to hide in bases, behind equipment or in technical boxes.

Product benefits

• Integrate analog into the network : Connect analog preamps, players, power amps, or matrices to Dante infrastructures without complexity.
• Fast and orderly deployments : small size and PoE option (with splitter) to minimize external sources and cabling.
• Clean, consistent audio : Flat bandwidth and low distortion to maintain stream quality.
• 24/7 Versatility : Designed for fixed installation and rental in corporate, educational and entertainment environments.

Use cases

• Conference rooms : analog input/output from tables, players or simultaneous translation systems to Dante.
• Theaters and churches : adapting existing analog racks to the venue's network.
• Events and rentals : fast bridge between analog devices and the event's Dante backbone .
