1 DESCRIPTION

The Iyo Dante® is a cost-effective family of microphone/line
Dante audio-over-IP (AoIP) interfaces in a 1U rack mount
format.
Several models provide various configurations of balanced
analog audio inputs and outputs. Each input accommodates
microphone through line level signals with a range of -60 to
+24dBu. +48V phantom power is individually switchable on
each input. Output levels are configurable up to +24dBu.
RGB LEDs on the Iyo's front panel show per channel audio
levels and streaming status.
The Iyo family feature an embedded web server, allowing
configuration and monitoring of input and output levels.
Routing is achieved using the Dante Controller.
Power is provided from a built-in universal AC power supply.
Redundant power is available using an external 12VDC
supply via a locking 2.1mm jack.
All units can also be operated in AES67 interoperability mode.
