AXI 02 AT • Setup Guide

This guide provides basic instructions for an experienced technician to install the AXI 02 AT Dante Audio Interface. The Extron
AXI02AT is a compact audio interface that receives two channels from a Dante® audio network, providing connectivity to devices
without a Dante interface. It features two line level analog outputs on captive screw connectors with a mirrored two-channel
S/PDIF output on a coaxial RCA connector. Device conguration is performed using Extron DSP Congurator Software. Full
Dante conguration is available using Dante Controller. For additional information, specications, and the user guide, see the
AXI02AT product page at www.extron.com.

Disconnect Power and Mount the AXI 02 AT

Disconnect power from the AXI 02 AT and turn off all devices that will be connected to it. The AXI 02 AT is housed in an
eighth-rack width, 4.42-inch (133 mm) deep, 1U-high enclosure that can be mounted on a rack shelf, secured with the included
ZipClip100™ mounting clip, or secured to rack rails with tie wraps. Select a suitable mounting location, then choose an
appropriate mounting option.
