{"product_id":"rdl-tp-bn14","title":"RDL TP-BN14 – Dante Tabletop Mic and Monitor Station","description":"\u003ch2\u003eWhat is the RDL TP-BN14?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe RDL TP-BN14 is a bi-directional Dante tabletop station that combines a shock-mounted XLR microphone input, a 2 W monitor speaker and a headphone output with four-source selection. It sends one microphone to the Dante network and lets each participant monitor a dedicated mix or choose from three or four network sources, such as language interpretation channels. RDL designed it for meeting halls, conference rooms and courtrooms, and it runs on PoE or a 24 Vdc supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow does it work?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/rdlnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/tp-bn14_front-scaled.png\" alt=\"RDL TP-BN14 Dante tabletop mic and monitor station\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe XLR microphone input is shock mounted, with automatic gain of 40 dB for condenser mics and 60 dB for dynamic mics, and P48 phantom power. A mute button toggles the microphone on and off or provides momentary muting, and an LED indicates when the mic is muted. The front-panel 2 W RMS amplified speaker monitors a dedicated Dante channel or follows the headphone selection, and a compressor\/limiter prevents clipping. The headphone mini-jack delivers more than 90 mW into high- or low-impedance headphones, with single-button selection of three or four mono Dante sources and an LED for each. The upper button is set by the installer to select OFF or the speaker source. The front-panel level control is a long-life potentiometer controlling a VCA, so audio never passes through the control and adjustment stays noise-free. Installer adjustments and switch settings are on the bottom of the chassis, out of reach of participants. The TP-BN14 runs on PoE (Class 0, IEEE 802.3af) or 24 Vdc at 300 mA, with normal or hot-standby PoE operation; RDL recommends the PS-24AS (USA) or \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/creationnetworks.net\/products\/rdl-ps-24ax\"\u003eRDL PS-24AX\u003c\/a\u003e (international) supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat are the key features?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMic to Dante\u003c\/strong\u003e — Converts a shock-mounted XLR microphone input to a Dante network channel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAutomatic mic gain\u003c\/strong\u003e — Sets 40 dB for condenser and 60 dB for dynamic microphones, with P48 phantom.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMute button\u003c\/strong\u003e — Toggles the mic on and off or provides momentary muting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 W monitor speaker\u003c\/strong\u003e — Built-in speaker with compressor\/limiter monitors a dedicated mix.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFour-source headphone selection\u003c\/strong\u003e — Single-button selection of Dante sources with LED indication.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVCA level control\u003c\/strong\u003e — Long-life front-panel control with no audio through the pot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstaller settings underneath\u003c\/strong\u003e — Adjustments sit on the chassis bottom to prevent tampering.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoE or 24 Vdc\u003c\/strong\u003e — Runs on PoE with optional 24 Vdc hot standby.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere is it typically used?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGovernment space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConference room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoardroom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-purpose room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraining room\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;border-color:#ddd;width:100%;min-width:300px;table-layout:fixed\"\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\u003eModel\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTP-BN14\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNetwork Connector\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRJ45 Ethercon style\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)\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 Levels\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e-20 dBFS = +4 dBu\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"background:#f5f5f5\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput: Balanced, XLR\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGain\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAutomatic;
