VIS-DTU Bidirectional USB-to-Dante Converter
Model VIS-DTU
Overview
VIS-DTU is a bidirectional USB-to-Dante converter that connects a computer or USB device directly to a Dante/AES67 audio network without requiring additional interfaces.
It provides 2x2 audio channels, allowing the PC to send audio to the network and receive return audio from Dante for conferencing, recording, or playback applications.
Its PoE power and compact form factor make it easy to integrate cleanly into meeting tables, light racks, or room connection boxes.
