KanexPro Dante 2-Channel Analog Line Input Adapter

About: KanexPro Dante 2-Channel Analog Line Input Adapter

Bridges legacy analog audio sources into any Dante network with a compact, plug-and-play 2-channel line input adapter. The KanexPro AUD-DTE-LINEIN accepts balanced or unbalanced analog audio via a 6-pin phoenix connector and converts it to Dante digital audio at up to 96kHz/24-bit, delivering >100dB dynamic range and <0.01% THD+N for transparent signal quality.

Five-level per-channel sensitivity adjustment (+24dBu to −10dBv) accommodates everything from professional mixing consoles to consumer media players without external attenuators. Powered by PoE (IEEE 802.3af) or USB-C, the adapter installs anywhere on the network with a single CAT cable — no dedicated power run required. AES67 interoperability ensures compatibility across mixed-vendor Dante and AES67 systems.
