The AJA DANTE-12GAM is a compact and powerful audio embedding/disembedding solution that seamlessly bridges 12G-SDI video with Dante audio networks. Ideal for professional AV environments, broadcast studios, OB trucks, and live event productions, the DANTE-12GAM enables the transmission of high-quality digital audio over IP using familiar SDI infrastructure. It simplifies system integration by providing a reliable interface between SDI video workflows and AoIP audio platforms.
Supporting up to 16 embedded audio channels per SDI signal in each direction, the unit offers simultaneous embed and disembed capabilities—totaling 32 audio channels. For larger systems, optional models like the DANTE-12GAM-TR-LC and DANTE-12GAM-TR-BNC expand support to 64 channels via SFP cages for fiber or coaxial I/O. This scalability ensures flexibility across a wide variety of production workflows.
The DANTE-12GAM supports resolutions up to DCI 4K/UltraHD and offers dual 12G-SDI inputs and outputs for robust connectivity. Built-in signal generators allow for test signals to be injected directly into the SDI stream or Dante network without external equipment, streamlining testing and system configuration. The device also includes 2-channel analog audio monitoring outputs.
Control is intuitive via AJA's web-based interface and compatible Dante Controller software. With dual etherCON GigE ports, the device ensures network redundancy and reliability. The DANTE-12GAM is compatible with Dante, AES67, and SMPTE ST 2110-30 audio standards, making it a versatile choice for modern IP-based systems.
Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) support reduces cable clutter and simplifies installations, especially in space-constrained setups. Its rugged design and compact footprint make it easy to integrate into portable flypacks or fixed installations. Whether upgrading existing infrastructure or deploying a new AV over IP system, the DANTE-12GAM provides unmatched reliability and performance.
