APPLICATION: The DD-BN22 is a complete wall-mounted Dante audio network interface. It features two XLR mic or line inputs and two XLR

mic or line outputs on the front panels. Special software is not required to configure the DD-BN22. Each XLR input provides three switches
that may be set from the front of the unit when the cover plate is not installed. One switch enables or disables P48 phantom; the second
switch selects the mic or line gain range; the third switch sets the gain. Each XLR output provides a switch to set the output to balanced
professional line level or mic level. The DD-BN22 fits a standard US dual-gang electrical box or an RDL WB-2 back box for installations in
thinner European or equivalent walls. The DD-BN22 is PoE powered, and is available in multiple finishes with optional customized graphics.

The two XLR inputs are each converted to a separate Dante network transmit channel. Three gain settings are switch-selectable for both the
mic and line input ranges to match condenser or dynamic mic levels and standard line levels.

Two Dante audio channels are converted to balanced line level on front-panel XLR jacks. Each output provides +4 dBu balanced for a network
digital audio level of -20 dBFS. Each output is equipped with a selector to set the output to line level or attenuate the output by 50 dB to mic
level. These switches are located on the top of the chassis and are set by the installer prior to mounting the unit.

Valid PoE power and synchronization to the Dante network are indicated by green LEDs visible from the front of the unit.

The DD-BN22 is a professional grade product with discrete mic preamplifiers for studio quality fidelity and low noise performance, coupled
through metal XLR jacks housed in a stainless steel chassis with powder-coated or stainless steel Decora front plates.

The DD-BN22’s superior performance specifications make it ideally suited to the most demanding installations, and an exceptional value
in commercial networked audio systems. This full-featured product is engineered and manufactured in the U.S.A for continuous duty in
demanding installations. Designed to outperform. Built to last.
