The AJA DANTE-12GAM with BNC SFP is a high-performance converter for sending and receiving audio between 12G-SDI video gear and Dante® audio networks. It supports up to 64 channels of audio using Dante, AES67, and SMPTE ST 2110-30. This compact device offers both embedding and disembedding in real time. With dual etherCON ports, a built-in signal generator, and web-based controls, the DANTE-12GAM is ideal for broadcasters, AV professionals, and anyone upgrading to IP audio.

Designed for Audio over IP (AoIP) environments, the AJA DANTE-12GAM-TR-BNC lets you embed and disembed SDI audio from Dante networks with extremely low latency. Whether you're upgrading broadcast, live event, or studio infrastructure, this compact unit offers the speed, flexibility, and compatibility needed for seamless integration.

This AJA DANTE converter supports AES67 and SMPTE ST 2110-30, making it ideal for interoperability with various IP audio systems. It uses dual etherCON GigE ports for network redundancy and offers PoE+ support, helping reduce cabling and simplify installs.

In addition to standard SDI audio pass-through, the DANTE-12GAM-TR-BNC includes two internal SDI signal generators. These generators enable transmission of Dante audio over SDI even when no video source is connected. You can confidently use this device as both a bridge and a standalone audio node.

On the front panel, you'll find an LCD display and four physical buttons for quick configuration. Remote management is just as easy, thanks to the AJA web UI, accessible through any browser. For initial setup, there's a USB-C port that works with the free AJA eMini-Setup software to assign static IP settings.

This model builds on the base DANTE-12GAM but adds dual-channel functionality with BNC connectivity. It's a plug-and-play solution for users who need high-quality Dante audio I/O with SDI infrastructure. You can also swap the included SFP with a fiber version if your workflow evolves.

Like all AJA products, the DANTE-12GAM-TR-BNC is built with reliability in mind. It includes a universal 12V power supply, offers 5-year warranty coverage, and meets the needs of demanding environments. Its aluminum housing, front-to-back cooling, and compact size make it easy to mount or transport.

From ProAV installers to OB truck engineers, the AJA DANTE-12GAM-TR-BNC delivers the best of both worlds: full Dante audio integration and professional SDI support in a rugged, user-friendly package.
