Shure - ANI4IN Block

The Shure ANI4IN Block is an audio network interface designed to simplify the integration of analog audio equipment into Dante digital networks. With four analog inputs, this device converts analog audio signals to Dante digital streams, providing a convenient solution for adding microphones, mixing consoles, or other analog audio sources to an existing Dante network. Its compact block design allows for discreet installation, whether on a tabletop, in a rack, or even behind a wall.

One of the ANI4IN Block’s key strengths is its ability to operate on Power over Ethernet (PoE), which greatly simplifies installation by eliminating the need for additional power cables. This feature not only reduces installation costs, but also minimizes clutter.

The ANI4IN-Block also features an intuitive web interface, which allows users to configure and control audio and network settings remotely. Through this interface, it is possible to adjust gain levels, manage audio channels and access diagnostic tools to simplify the management of the overall audio system.

Finally, the ANI4IN-BLOCK's compatibility with Dante Controller and Dante Domain Manager software adds an extra dimension of control and security. This not only allows for easy configuration of signal routing in the network, but also secures the entire audio system against unauthorized access.
