Product Description
The Studio Technologies Model 5682-01 is a high-performance 32-channel 1RU ST 2110 to Dante bridge. It offers a seamless solution for connecting SMPTE ST 2110 audio channels with Dante audio-over-Ethernet channels. This bridge supports both independent LANs for ST 2110 and Dante, as well as a single network for both. It complies with SMPTE ST 2110-30 for PCM audio signals and ST 2110-10 for signal timing, and is compatible with Dante Domain Manager (DDM) software and AES67 interoperability. With up to 32 audio channels in each direction, it features internal sample rate conversion to maintain audio signal integrity. The Model 5682 focuses on ST 2110-compliant audio channels and their timing, while Dante audio-over-Ethernet provides ease of use and strong interoperability. It supports video and control signals and is designed for broadcast applications. Each interface has three Gigabit Ethernet connections for configuration and network use. Front-panel indicators and an LCD display make it easy to access operating parameters. Configuration support is available for the ST 2110 interface. The unit can be powered by 100 - 240 V AC or 12 V DC with redundant power capability. It fits in a standard 19-inch rack and is built for continuous operation. Key features include support for SMPTE ST 2110-10, ST 2110-30, and ST 2022-7, compatibility with Dante technology, AES67, and DDM, up to 32 audio channels in both directions, integrated sample rate conversion, multiple Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, various power options, multiple status LEDs and a graphics display, a lightweight enclosure for single rack-space mounting, and high-performance interconnection between ST 2110 and Dante audio channels. Technical specifications cover network audio technology for both ST 2110 and Dante, audio performance, network interfaces, power sources, and environmental and physical details.
Using the Studio Technologies Model 5682-01 is easy. First, decide whether you'll use independent LANs for ST 2110 and Dante or a single network. Connect the appropriate Ethernet cables to the designated ports on the device. For power, you can choose between 100 - 240 V AC or 12 V DC. Make sure to check the front-panel indicators and LCD display to monitor the operating parameters. When configuring the ST 2110 interface, use the provided support options. Remember to keep the operating temperature between 32 to 122 degrees F and the humidity at 5 to 95% non-condensing. For storage, the temperature can range from -40 to 158 degrees F. To maintain the device, keep it clean and free from dust. Periodically check the Ethernet connections and the power sources. If you need to update the firmware, use the USB Type A receptacles. And always follow the safety guidelines when handling the device.
