June 1 2021, 00:35
Extending the capabilities of it’s compact, ultra-robust Dante audio network interfacing modules, Neutrik has introduced the NPS-30W Gigabit Power over Ethernet power supply, addressing the ever increasing requirement for PoE injectors with the first ever such device optimized to operate in the harshest stage and field applications.

The NPS-30W PoE injector behaves as a passive power supply, delivering constant uninterrupted power, with no requirement for power negotiation with connected devices. The NPS-30W PoE partners the new NA2-IO-DPRO and NA2-IO-DLINE I/O interface devices that enable connectivity of legacy analog and digital audio equipment within Dante audio networks, in the most demanding application environments.

With a 30W PoE budget, up to four of these I/O Dante interface devices can be daisy-chained off of a single NPS-30W; this makes the NPS-30W ideal for applications such as ambient miking.

In common with the NA2-IO-DPRO and NA2-IO-DLINE, the NPS-30W features a compact ultra-rugged form-factor and removable rubber safety casing, and is equipped with lockable power connector and Ethernet ports, for utmost reliability in field production applications. Optional mounting brackets or a rack panel, allow all three devices to mounted on the underside of tables, in floor boxes, outboard racks or on a truss.

The NPS-30W is an optimal companion for any PoE application, as well as Neutrik's own networking products. The rear panel power input and network data input port, and the front panel PoE / data output network port feature Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 TOP and etherCON chassis connectors to ensure fully robust, professional standard connectivity.

Neutrik also announced new options to remote control the preamps of their new DANTE network device NA2-IO-DPRO, offering full integration with Crestron control products. Designers can now fully integrate the DPRO into a Crestron system and perform various controls such as gain, phantom power, lo-cut, mute and mic/line switch.

The NA2-IO-DPRO is Neutrik’s POE powered Dante I/O solution to add more flexibility in a network setup for Line, MIC and even AES signals. Besides their own control software, the NA2-IO-DPRO can be remote controlled from Yamaha CL/QL consoles and from Q-Sys and now Crestron control devices. The module is available for free in the Crestron application market.
