Product information

Intelligent audio distribution for fixed installations: The DRM-44 Dante® Bridge

With the DRM-44 you get a powerful and extremely reliable bi-directional analog/Dante® bridge. This interface provides the perfect bridge between traditional analog audio equipment and modern, IP-based network audio systems. The module is specifically designed for fixed installations in conference centers, theaters, catering and multifunctional buildings where flexibility, stability and flawless signal transmission are required. Thanks to full Dante® and AES67 support, this device fits effortlessly into any modern audio network.

Built-in DSP and flexible 8x8 audio matrix

What makes the DRM-44 unique is the powerful built-in DSP audio processing available on every single channel. You have immediate access to essential audio tools such as parametric EQs, dynamic compressors and precise delays to perfectly tailor the acoustics to the room. In addition, the device has an internal 8x8 audio matrix. This allows you to freely route, mix and distribute analog and network audio inputs to your desired physical outputs or network channels.

Intuitive management via the integrated web server

No complicated software installations required: the DRM-44 is equipped with its own internal web server. You can configure and operate the matrix, DSP settings and volumes in an instant via a clear, graphical user interface in your web browser. This can be done from any network device, whether you are sitting behind a fixed PC or walking through the location with a tablet or smartphone.

Studio quality and smart system control

The DRM-44 delivers the highest level of performance. A signal-to-noise ratio of more than 120 dB and a total harmonic distortion (THD) of less than 0.003% ensure that the audio signal is transmitted completely transparently and without coloration. In addition, the bridge is equipped with GPI/GPO connections. These logical inputs and outputs make it possible to control external equipment or receive triggers from, for example, physical buttons, sensors, time switches or central alarm systems.

Compact and flexible to install

The hardware is housed in a robust, black metal housing with a compact 241 mm size (½ 19"). Thanks to the included rack brackets, you can easily mount the unit in a standard 19-inch patch cabinet or flight case, where it takes up only 1 HU of space. The DRM-44 is also flexible in terms of power supply: connect it to a PoE switch for data and power over a single network cable, or use the supplied DC 24 V power adapter.
