I/O Interfaces
AEQ – NetBOX 4 MH
The NETBOX 4MH interface has been designed to cover the need for high quality microphone inputs and headphone outputs availability outputs, for example in radio and TV studios, stage or multimedia installations. The multichannel IP connectivity (Audinate DANTE™ protocol) makes the Inputs of the unit available at any point of the network.

The multichannel IP connectivity (Audinate DANTE™ protocol) makes the Inputs of the unit available at any point of the network.
NETBOX 4MH interface also includes 4 General Purpose inputs and outputs (GPIO) as interfaces for signaling transport between the different devices in the IP network. As a complementary feature, the unit is soporting the same inputs and outputs as analogue balanced line Inputs and Outputs.
Further, the new interface has additional GPIOs that can be used in for example a studio installation and as an interface to signaling terminals such as the AEQ SRC 03. This greatly facilitates the implementation of services such as remote CUE and Cough-cut, User keys, ON AIR and READY lights, etc.
