DANTE™ Encoder

The AudioControl ACP-DANTE-E-POE is designed for lossless audio encoding, ensuring every nuance of the analog input is preserved. Its robust capabilities enable seamless integration into modern Dante networks.

---

The ACP-DANTE-E-POE operates by converting analog audio signals into digital streams using high-performance codecs that ensure lossless transmission over a network. It utilizes advanced digital signal processing techniques to maintain audio fidelity while accommodating variable sampling rates and bit depths, providing flexibility and adaptability in a wide range of applications. By implementing standards such as AES67, the encoder ensures compatibility across various audio devices, facilitating efficient multi-channel audio distribution without degradation of sound quality. The power options, including Power over Ethernet (PoE), enhance the unit's usability in different installations, allowing for straightforward connectivity and reducing cable clutter, while the auto-discovery feature simplifies network setup and integration.

Key Features

• 100% Lossless Encoding: Maintains the integrity of the audio signal during the digital conversion process, ensuring no loss of detail.
• Configurable Sampling Rates: Supports sampling rates from 44.1 kHz to 96 kHz, accommodating various audio applications and maintaining high fidelity.
