The Palmer RIVER lahn is a compact, professional-grade 2x2 Dante® interface designed for seamless integration of analogue audio equipment into digital Dante® networks. With two inputs and two outputs, it provides bidirectional conversion—feeding analogue mic or line signals into a Dante® network and converting Dante® signals into balanced analogue audio for amplifiers, mixers, or loudspeakers.
Each channel offers four-stage gain control and switchable 48V phantom power, allowing precision setup for a wide range of devices. The unit features secure, lockable XLR connections and a robust Neutrik® etherCON® socket for reliable network connectivity. Configuration is simple via front-panel controls, and a user lock helps prevent unauthorized changes in public or professional installations.
Status LEDs provide visual signal confirmation per channel, ensuring quick monitoring. Compatible with Dante® Domain Manager and AES67, the RIVER lahn supports both local 24V DC power and PoE (Power over Ethernet), offering maximum installation flexibility. Built with a rugged aluminium chassis and steel faceplate, it's engineered in Germany for durability in touring or fixed installations.
