Audio Network Interface
General Description
The Shure ANI22 Audio Network Interface provides 2 channels of Dante-to-analog and 2
channels of analog-to-Dante conversion. A single interface provides a simple way to
connect analog equipment to the audio network, such as wireless microphones, audio
processors, video codecs, and loudspeaker systems. Available in XLR and block connector
versions, each box uses a single network cable to carry audio and power through Power
over Ethernet (PoE). A browser-based web application controls audio and network settings
from any computer connected to the same network.
