STUDIO TECHNOLOGIES Model 5204 - Dual Line Input to Dante® Interface

The Model 5204 Interface is a general-purpose audio device that supports applications utilizing the Dante audio-over-Ethernet media networking technology. Two 2-channel (“stereo”) analogue line-level audio signals can be connected to the Model 5204 and then converted to two channels on an associated Dante connection. Analogue audio signals connect to line input A by way of a 3-conductor (“stereo”) 3.5 mm jack. This allows the direct interfacing of signals from a variety of sources such as personal audio and multimedia players, smartphones, and personal computers. These signals typically have an average (nominal) signal level in the range of -20 to -10 dBu. Line input B supports connection of balanced analogue audio signals using two XLR connectors. Average signal levels for these types of signals are typically in the range of 0 to +4 dBu. Each input has an associated dual-channel rotary level control to optimize its audio performance. Following the level “pots” the signals from inputs A and B are summed (c...
