OVERVIEW
The NBB Series products are professional audio receiver and/or transmitter to send and/or receive audio datastream to/from the Dante network. The NBB Series products come with the following variation,
| Model | Description | Analog Interface | Sample Rate | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NBB-0202 Audio Transceiver |
audio receiver of 2CH and audio transmitter of 2CH | 2x In + 2x Out | 48KHz or 96KHz | |
| NBB-04R Audio Receiver |
audio receiver of 4CH | 4x In | 48KHz or 96KHz | |
| NBB-04T Audio Transmitter |
audio transmitter of 4CH | 4x Out | 48KHz or 96KHz | |
| NBB-0404 Audio Transceiver |
audio receiver of 4CH and audio transmitter of 4CH | 4x In + 4x Out | 48KHz only | |
The NBB-04T audio transmitter transmits a couples of channels of analog audio converted from Dantenetworked stream which is distributed by other Dante-enabled devices. The output capability of the audiotransmitter meets the industrial standard up to 24dBu.
The NBB-04T is equipped with two RJ-45 Ethernet ports so that it is feasible to cascade several NBB-04T,i.e. in daisy-chaining, in the same network link to extend the geographic coverage of your audio deployment. Also, The NBB-04T can be powered by either PoE from Ethernet switches or 48V from external poweradapters.
DESCRIPTION
The NBB-04T adopts Audinate Dante networking technology for audiotransceiving, and is very network friendly with unlimited flexibility in topology ofdeployment. The NBB-04T supports up to Layer 3 of IEEE 802.3 networkstandard, enabling you to organize your audio network with the on-the-shelf Ethernet switches or toimmediately transport streaming audio by taking advantage of your existing installed network facility withno hassle. Even better, every NBB-04T comes with two Ethernet ports which allow you to physicallycascade several NBB-04T in the same network link. Accompanied by Ethernet switches, this capability helpsNBB-04T gaining flexibility and expanding territory in device deployment in audio networking.
Audio routing among each NBB-04T and all the other Dante-enabled devices is configured via computerwith dedicated Dante Controller software which is available free from Audinate website. With Dante VirtualSoundcard software, you are even able to have your DAW software direct play stereo streaming audio toNBB-04T.
The audio output interfaces of NBB-04T fully meet the requirements of the professional audio industry.Audio is decoded with the latest and uncompressed 32-bit or 24-bit PCM decoder with sample rate in44.1KHz, 48KHz, or 96KHz. The NBB-04T outputs are peculiarly buffered with amplifiers of high-rail-voltage which can drive the lines up to 24dBu. Besides the high-level of drive capability, the output of NBB-04T can also be attenuated to meet the narrower reception range of inputs of some semi-professionaldevices.
The NBB-04T is assembled in a sturdy metal chassis with elegant style of front panel. A set of rackmount kitis included in the package so that you can mount the NBB-04T in standard 19" rack.
