It gives integrators a clean way to drop networked audio into a room for local amplifiers, recorders or mixer inputs. PoE power and software configuration through RDL CONSOLE keep the installation simple, and a Q-SYS plug-in is available for Q-SYS projects.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow does it work?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/rdlnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/db-rn02.jpg\" alt=\"RDL DB-RN02 black Dante wall plate interface\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe DB-RN02 converts two Dante or AES67 audio channels to balanced outputs. Both outputs appear on front-panel XLR jacks and on a rear-panel detachable wiring block, so you can patch at the plate or wire into the wall. Each output delivers +4 dBu balanced for a network level of -18 dBFS. The front-panel XLR outputs are software-selectable for mic or line level, which lets the plate feed either a line input or the mic input of a mixer or recorder. Every output has a software-controlled attenuator adjustable in 1 dB steps to 63 dB of attenuation, then OFF. The module uses high-resolution 24-bit digital-to-analog conversion and supports 44.1, 48, 88.2 and 96 kHz sample rates. Green front-panel LEDs confirm valid PoE power and Dante network sync. The steel chassis mounts behind a black Decora front plate, and the unit is compatible with RDL network remote controls. RDL engineers and builds the DB-RN02 in the U.S.A. for continuous duty in commercial networked audio systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat are the key features?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDante or AES67 0x2 interface\u003c\/strong\u003e — Converts two network audio channels to balanced analog outputs in a single-gang wall plate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual output connections\u003c\/strong\u003e — Each output is available on a front-panel XLR jack and on a rear-panel detachable wiring block.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMic or line level XLR outputs\u003c\/strong\u003e — Front-panel XLR outputs are software-selectable for mic or line level to suit the connected equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1 dB step attenuators\u003c\/strong\u003e — Each output has a software-controlled attenuator from 0 to -63 dB, then OFF.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoE powered\u003c\/strong\u003e — The plate runs from an IEEE 802.3af PoE switch port with no local power supply required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQ-SYS plug-in\u003c\/strong\u003e — RDL offers a Q-SYS plug-in so the module can be configured inside a Q-SYS design.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere is it typically used?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConference rooms and boardrooms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraining rooms and classrooms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-purpose rooms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHouses of worship\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGovernment and commercial meeting spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto;-webkit-overflow-scrolling:touch\"\u003e\u003ctable border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"6\" style=\"border-collapse:collapse;width:100%;min-width:300px;table-layout:fixed;border-color:#ddd\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\n\u003ccol style=\"width:44%\"\u003e\n\u003ccol style=\"width:56%\"\u003e\n\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNetwork Connector\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRJ45 with Link and Speed indicators\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDigital Audio Ethernet Protocol\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDante\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTransmission Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100 Mbps\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSample Rates Supported\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e44.1 kHz, 48 kHz (default), 88.2 kHz, 96 kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBit Depth Supported\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 bits\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAudio Operating Level\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e-18 dBFS = +4 dBu\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReference Level\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0 dBFS = +22 dBu\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" bgcolor=\"#f5f5f5\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNetwork to Mic\/Line Outputs Section\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutputs (2)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBalanced, XLR and detachable wiring block (2)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput Level (operating)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e+4 dBu (nominal) balanced\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput Level (maximum)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e+22 dBu balanced\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput Attenuator\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSoftware-controlled, 0 to -63 dB and OFF (analog output per received network channel)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput Impedance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e150 Ω balanced\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency Response\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMic: 20 Hz to 20 kHz (± 0.5 dB);
