GIO USB
USER GUIDE
OVERVIEW
Gio USB is a surface-mount USB-to-Dante endpoint, enabling 2x2 channels of USB audio to be
transported over a standard Ethernet network. With a slim profile and PoE-powered, Gio USB is easily
and discreetly mounted under tables, within lecterns or behind a display.
Gio USB is often used for connecting room PCs, UC appliances or BYOM devices such as laptops to
room audio systems over a single category cable where having a digital signal processor for direct
connection in the same location is not feasible. Optimized for UC-conferencing, Gio USB features
volume and mute-sync with Microsoft Teams over HID, as well as volume sync for PC and Mac
computers.
