Description

The SF-XMN4 is an interface that converts four XLR microphone inputs to Dante network audio channels. Special software is not required to configure the SF-XMN4. Each XLR input is equipped with a switch to set the gain for dynamic or condenser microphones. A dual-LED VU meter displays the level for each input to facilitate selection of the ideal gain range. P48 phantom voltage is supplied to each microphone input. The SF-XMN4 is a professional grade product with discrete mic preamplifiers for studio quality fidelity and low noise performance.

The SF-XMN4 is PoE powered. Valid PoE power and synchronization to the Dante network is indicated by a green LED visible from the front of the unit.

The SF-XMN4 is constructed in a durable, professional all-metal enclosure suitable for free-standing, surface-mounted or rack-mounted operation. This full-featured SYSFLEX® product is engineered and manufactured in the U.S.A for continuous duty in demanding installations. The versatility of SYSFLEX® products adds enormous flexibility in the design and installation of professional A/V systems.

Key features:

• Dante Network Interface for Four Audio Mic Inputs

• Each XLR Input Provides Switch-Selectable Mic Gain: 40 dB, 48 dB or 62 dB

• 48 V Mic Phantom (P48) on each input

• Four XLR Front-Panel Inputs

• Converts Four Standard XLR Mic Audio Sources to Dante Network Channels

• Special Software Not Required for Module Setup

• High Resolution 24 Bit Analog to Digital Conversion

• LED Indicator for Valid Power and Network Sync

• Operation from PoE Power (Class 0, IEEE 802.3af)

• Equipped for SysFlex® Rack Mounting or Surface Mounting
