Dante® 2-Channel XLR Input Adapter
Convert Professional XLR Audio to Dante® Digital Audio
The KanexPro AUD-DTE-XLRIN converts two-channel balanced or unbalanced XLR analog audio into Dante® digital audio for professional AV and networked sound environments. Built on the Dante Ultimo 2×2 platform, it accepts microphones, mixers, and pro-audio line sources directly via integrated 30cm XLR pigtail leads, eliminating the need for a separate stagebox or rack-mount interface.
Five selectable input sensitivity levels (+24dBu to −10dBv) deliver precise gain staging at the source. Powered by PoE (802.3af Class 0) or USB-C, it installs anywhere on the network with minimal cabling. Configurable latency (1, 2, or 5ms) and AES67 compatibility ensure integration into any professional Dante® ecosystem.
