Audinate has released the Dante AVIO Bluetooth adapter, extending the Dante AVIO family and allowing mobile devices and computers to wirelessly connect to any Dante audio network for audio playout and recording.
Dante AVIO adapters allow the use of non-networked audio equipment on a Dante audio network. Cost effective, compact and rugged, Dante AVIO is available in single-channel and two-channel analogue input or output configurations as well as AES3/EBU, USB and now Bluetooth versions.
The Dante AVIO Bluetooth adapter brings Bluetooth 5.0 performance, delivering high-quality audio from smartphones, tablets and computers to any audio devices on a Dante network. Pairing devices is simple and straightforward, allowing automatic connection to paired devices when in range. Dante AVIO Bluetooth is suited to playback via larger sound systems, and connecting networked speakers and microphones to mobile conferencing software running on tablets and smartphones.
‘The new Dante AVIO Bluetooth adapter provides a cost-effective way for audio professionals to get the benefits of networking while using the familiar devices they already own,’ says Senior Product Manager, Mark Gerrard. ‘Bluetooth connectivity brings Dante audio networking to the world of wireless devices.’
In addition to Bluetooth, a USB-C compatible version of the Dante AVIO USB adapter is slated for release soon.
