The Studio Technologies Model 5682-02 64-Channel 1RU ST 2110 to Dante Bridge presents a high-performance solution for linking SMPTE ST 2110 audio channels to Dante audio-over-Ethernet channels.

The Model 5682 facilitates bridging ST 2110 and Dante audio signals, which are usually associated with separate local area networks.

It adheres to the SMPTE ST 2110-30 standard for PCM audio signals and the ST 2110-10 standard for signal timing.

On the Dante side, it is compatible with Dante Domain Manager (DDM) software and aligns with the AES67 interoperability standard.

The Model 5682-02 supports up to 64 audio channels and maintains audio signal integrity through internal sample rate conversion (SRC).

Tailored for ST 2110-compliant audio channels and their timing parameters, the device also supports Dante audio-over-Ethernet applications widely used across industries.

The Model 5682 is equipped with three Gigabit Ethernet connections for each ST 2110 and Dante interface.

Front-panel indicators, an LCD display, and pushsummary switches facilitate easy monitoring and configuration adjustments.

Configuration support for the ST 2110 interface includes NMOS, ANEMAN, and JSON formats.

The unit can be powered by 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz or 12 volts DC, with the option for redundant power operation.

Tailored for professional use, the Model 5682 is rack-mountable, designed for continuous 24-hour operation, and complies with industry standards for reliability and performance.
