The DANTE-12GAM is a high performance Audio over IP (AoIP) Converter, embedding and disembedding SDI audio to a Dante network and back to SDI from Dante audio. Equipped with 12G-SDI input and output and dual etherCON GigE ports, the DANTE-12GAM is capable of simultaneously embedding and disembedding up to 16 channels of audio in and out for a total of 32 audio channels in a compact device.The DANTE-12GAM is your portal to a vast array of IP audio solutions. Dante networks not only support the Dante audio streams but also support AES67 and SMPTE ST 2110-30 AoIP, providing massive flexibility for all your IP audio needs. you can rely on AJA  s legendary build quality and support to give you peace of mind whether you're an individual creator or broadcasting the largest live events. Dante: The Audio Networking Standard for the Pro AV Industry and BeyondDante audio is the primary choice for ProAV system integrators and a growing number of broadcasters. It is widely adopted by over 600 manufacturers offering 4000+ Dante device types. Dante IP audio networking provides digital audio distribution over local and wide area networking with very low latency (Dante allows uncompressed, multi-channel, low-latency, high-resolution digital audio to be distributed across a switched Ethernet network using standard TCP/IP protocols while meeting stringent quality and timing requirements of professional audio. For your peace of mind, Dante audio supports a redundant network topology with dual networks via a primary and secondary 1 GigE port on most Dante devices.ConnectivityThe DANTE-12GAM converter offers the power and flexibility of professional connectivity to plug and play into your existing SDI and Dante audio infrastructures.Dante and AES67In addition to Dante IP audio, the DANTE-12GAM also supports AES67, which is an open standard for IP audio developed by the Audio Engineering Society (AES). Dante and AES67 work together by leveraging AES67's interoperability to allow Dante devices to communicate with other AES67-compliant systems, enhancing the flexibility and integration capabilities of audio networks, greatly expanding the Dante audio ecosystem. This means you can integrate Dante systems with other IP audio systems that use AES67, such as RAVENNA, Livewire, and Q-LAN. To enable AES67 on Dante devices, you need to activate AES67 in Dante Controller software, which allows the Dante network to transmit and receive AES67 streams.Dante and SMPTE ST 2110-30SMPTE ST 2110-30 is the SMPTE standard for transporting uncompressed audio over IP networks. The DANTE-12GAM also supports SMPTE ST 2110-30 IP audio, which is a component of the broader SMPTE ST 2110 IP AV suite. The SMPTE ST 2110 standard includes video, audio, ancillary data, and more, transporting the highest quality video and audio IP data streams over robust IP networks, typically in broadcast environments.The DANTE-12GAM can interoperate with other ST 2110-30 compliant devices via the Dante Controller software. The Dante audio network and the DANTE-12GAM both support Precision Time Protocol version 2 (PTPv2), ensuring synchronization across Dante and SMPTE ST 2110 networks. With its support of SMPTE ST 2110-30, the DANTE-12GAM is a powerful bridge between Dante and SMPTE networks in professional audio and broadcast applications.Advanced EnclosureThe DANTE-12GAM utilizes a rugged new aluminum enclosure, offering a front panel display, physical push-button controls, USB-C connectivity for initial Static IP configuration, and active cooling designed with front-to-back airflow. The onboard display reports status and configuration and is paired with buttons for enter, back, up, and down for easy access to settings for standalone operation.AJA Web UIThe DANTE-12GAM can also be monitored and controlled by a user friendly web UI served by its integrated web server. The web UI shows the system status and connections to the Dante audio network. It can be used to configure network settings and update firmware. Applicable controls and status information are mirrored on the LCD front display on the device.DANTE-12GAM WorkflowsSimultaneous Embed/Disembed to/from 12G-SDI / Dante AudioHere, the DANTE-12GAM is simultaneously disembedding 16-channels of audio from 12G-SDI from the video mixer into a Dante IP audio network while embedding 16-channels of Dante IP Audio into a 12G-SDI stream to be recorded onto our industry leading Ki Pro Ultra 12G digital recorder/player. The DANTE-12GAM is a powerful and space efficient solution for your IP audio conversion needs.DANTE-12GAM SMPTE ST 2110-30 Audio WorkflowIn this workflow, the DANTE-12GAM activates a SMPTE ST 2110 IP audio workflow. The stadium camera with an attached shotgun mic is picking up the crowd noise, and the audio is disembedded from the SDI stream and converted to Dante audio to go into the audio mixer, held in sync by the grand master PTP clock connected to both the Dante and SMPTE networks. Dante Domain Manager software is required to configure the Dante audio stream for it to be also recognized as a 2110-30 AoIP and send that into the SMPTE network for mixing and eventual distribution.Dante EcosystemDante ControllerUse Audinate's Dante Controller software to set up the audio routing between Dante devices and, when necessary, to update your software. Use this application to set up the audio routing between Dante devices, control the audio connections in the Dante setup, and move audio in real-time over an Ethernet network.Dante Domain ManagerUse Audinate's Dante Domain Manager to manage the Dante network. It supports setting up authentication, security, and other similar attributes for management of various network architectures and is required for SMPTE ST 2110-30 workflows.Dante ViaUse Audinate's Dante Via to configure audio devices to appear on the Dante network; for example, you can make the stereo audio portion of AJA's U-TAP appear as two audio source channels on the Dante network.Dante Virtual SoundcardAudinate Dante Virtual Soundcard software emulates a physical PC or Mac soundcard, but instead of connecting to actual physical audio devices like a microphone, it connects to the Dante network. It can receive audio signals from the Dante network, including the DANTE-12GAM, and present them to your DAW app just like a physical soundcard would.
