OG-DANTE-12GAM

OG-DANTE-12GAM is an openGear, Dante audio embedder/disembedder, with dual 12G-SDI input and output ports providing up to 32-channels of audio embedding and 32-channels of disembedding simultaneously. OG-DANTE-12GAM provides the bridge between SDI and Dante infrastructures.

Dante audio networking provides digital audio distribution over local and wide-area networks with low latency, using standard network hardware or by connecting into a standard network infrastructure. This offers many advantages over analog, AES, and MADI infrastructures, including audio system scalability, easier installation, and simplified wiring.

A fully populated OG-X-FR openGear frame with ten OG-DANTE-12GAM cards, provides an incredible 640-channels of audio bridging in a rack-mountable form factor for a wide range of needs.

Features

• Support for 12G/6G/3G-SDI audio embedding to- and from- the Dante audio ecosystem
• Dual, and independent 12G-SDI Input and Output ports, each supporting 16-audio channels, totaling 64-channels per card in a compact design
• 1x Primary and 1x Secondary Gigabit Ethernet ports for Dante network redundancy
• 64-channels of simultaneous SDI/Dante audio bridging per card
• DashBoard support for remote signal status and configuration
• Compatible with a range of Dante Software from Audinate including Dante Controller for routing and configuration choices

• Supported within OG-X-FR and OG3 openGear frames
• Hot-swap capable
• Industry-leading five year warranty

Bridge Between SDI/Dante Sources and Destinations

OG-DANTE-12GAM bridges between SDI sources and destinations with embedded audio to/from the Dante audio ecosystem.  It’s your SDI/Dante Gateway.

• OG-DANTE-12GAM bridges between SDI sources and destinations with embedded audio to/from the Dante audio ecosystem.  It’s your SDI/Dante Gateway.

• OG-DANTE-12GAM provides two 12G-SDI ports for input and two ports for outputs, providing single cable support of 4K/UltraHD/2K/HD/SD video material and up to 16-channels of embedded audio support per SDI connection. This enables 64-channels of SDI/Dante bridging simultaneously.

• Audio can be bridged, mapped and embedded from Dante sources into each SDI stream or disembedded from SDI and served to Dante destinations using Dante Controller software.

• Redundancy across the Primary and Secondary 1 GigE Ethernet connections in OG-DANTE-12GAM for Dante audio, provides security and peace of mind.

• The openGear format offers high density with up to 10 cards within each openGear frame.

  • This all adds up to 640-channels of audio bridging between SDI and Dante audio in a single rack frame, ideal for flykits, OB vans and facilities.

• The openGear OG-X-FR frame itself supports redundant power supplies, critical for live environments and constant up time.
