Ecler DN44BOB
DANTE™/AES67 Digital Audio Interface
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The Ecler DN44BOB is a 4-input and 4-output Dante™/AES67 (Audio Over IP) Break Out Box. It facilitates the conversion of 4 analog audio signals into 4 Dante™/AES67 channels, transmitting them over an Ethernet LAN. Conversely, it can receive 4 Dante™ channels from the Ethernet network and convert them into analog audio signals. The unit includes 4 GPI control ports (0-10VDC) and 4 GPO control ports (NO/NC relays).
The DN44BOB can be utilized with EclerNet Dante™/AES67-ready products or function as a standalone Dante™/AES67 interface, compatible with any audio device featuring analog audio inputs and/or outputs.

MECHANICAL DIAGRAM
The DN44BOB features a 1U rack-mountable design. The front panel includes inputs and outputs with status LEDs for Dante, Power, and Data. The rear panel provides Euroblock connectors for analog inputs and outputs, as well as GPI/GPO connections.
The device can be mounted in a standard 19-inch rack. The included PUM3 kit allows for mounting two half-width RU devices in a single RU space, or one half-width RU device in a single RU space.
Diagrams show the front panel layout with labeled Inputs and Outputs, and the rear panel with connections. A separate diagram illustrates the PUM3 mounting system, detailing the use of M5 screws, metal washers, and plastic spacers for securing the unit to a rack via a metal union plate.
