ESI / Planet22c

Ultra-compact Dante interface ESI/planet 22c for professional sound quality.

■ Dante audio interface

The planet 22c is a very compact interface that provides 2 channels of analog input and 2 channels of analog output with pristine reference audio quality in a Dante IP audio network.

Equipped with an ultra-high quality 24 bit / 96 kHz AD / DA converter in a lightweight and sturdy body. It accepts -10 dBV and +4 dBu balanced line audio signals, making it an ideal high quality interface within a Dante network.

Reference quality Dante audio interface
The planet 22c is the ideal interface for connecting any analog device into the Dante world, including traditional mixers, studio monitors and PA speakers, synthesizers and other electronic instruments. It is also ideal for audio measurements due to its linear frequency response and excellent audio quality.

The biggest feature is that it can be powered directly from an Ethernet cable as a PoE (Power over Ethernet) device as well as the included power adapter. This is great for remote use.

You can also use the separately sold DVS (Dante Virtual Soundcard) software for PC/Mac to function as an audio interface for your computer.
