The VigilLink VLDT-LN88DB is a professional 8x8 Dante audio bridge with Phoenix terminal connectors that connects line-level audio equipment and microphones directly to a Dante IP network - eliminating the need for long analog cable runs while delivering broadcast-quality audio across any standard Ethernet infrastructure, optimized for large-scale fixed installations and multi-zone commercial AV systems. Analog audio input supports a 48V phantom power supply and 6-level sensitivity adjustment, while analog output supports 5-level output adjustment.
This audio bridge includes built-in audio signal processing for gain, equalizer, and delay control. It is simple to configure and operate via the internal Web GUI or the standard Dante Controller software. It supports Dante primary and backup networks for enhanced redundancy. This product can be powered by dual PoE+ ports or a local 12V DC power supply.
This cost-effective rack-mount unit offers an easy solution for professional AV systems in conference rooms, performance venues, houses of worship, and educational facilities. It bridges legacy equipment such as microphones and mixing consoles with modern Dante-enabled devices like network amplifiers, powered speakers, and other professional audio equipment, while greatly simplifying system wiring.
Dante (Digital Audio Networking Through Ethernet) is a media networking technology developed by Audinate that transports high-quality, low-latency audio over standard IP networks using off-the-shelf Ethernet switches and Cat5e/6 cabling. Unlike traditional point-to-point analog or digital audio connections, Dante allows hundreds of audio channels to be routed across a single network, with any device on the network able to send or receive audio from any other device - configured entirely in software. The VLDT-LN88DB implements Dante via the Dante Embedded Platform (DEP), ensuring full compatibility with the thousands of Dante-enabled products from over 600 manufacturers worldwide.
