Clear-Com E-Dante64-HX Dante interface card

Clear-Com E-Dante64-HX Clear-Com has announced a Dante interface card – the E-Dante64-HX – for its Eclipse-HX range of matrices.

The Dante/AES67 card is compatible with Eclipse HX-Omega, Median, and Delta matrix systems, and provides transport of up to 64 channels of high-quality audio to multiple AoIP devices using standard Ethernet network infrastructure. It supports all professional sample rates, including a 96kHz, 32-channel option.

High-quality audio interfacing allows Eclipse-HX units to route audio to and from multiple sources over standard network infrastructure. It is typically employed to route IFB feeds to/from a mixing console to provide instruction to on-air talent. When needed, the card can be readily used in the broadcast chain offering a high-quality, low-latency transport.

‘As IP protocols and workflows continue to gain momentum, interoperability is key to ensuring all elements can talk to each other,’ says Product Manager, Stephen Sandford. ‘The Eclipse-HX Dante card is a significant development that enables dependable connection and high audio quality for any broadcast environment or production event.’
