Simultaneously embed and de-embed audio between SDI, DANTE, AES and MADI with flexible routing and mixing.

Cobalt Digital introduces the ARIA OG-AUD4-DANTE — a DANTE® card in openGear® form factor. The COBALT ARIA OG-AUD4-DANTE is a quad path unit with 12G SDI and DANTE/AES/MADI which can simultaneously embed and de-embed audio between SDI, DANTE, AES and MADI with flexible routing and mixing.
This card also includes a built-in frame sync.
This openGear card features two gigabit Ethernet ports, and a 64×64 DANTE channel matrix mixer.
The Cobalt ARIA OG-AUD2-DANTE — High-density, compact openGear card-based solution, allows multiple devices to be installed in a single frame for up to 40 paths per 20-slot frame, as well as offering the standard features of redundant hot-swappable power supplies and hot-swappable cards.
