// cueing and the intercom engine

The Model 5422A Dante Intercom Audio Engine creates party-line intercom circuits in one rack unit, with 32 or 64 channels depending on the version. Its modes include party-line, summing bus, IFB and audio switching, and it supports AES67.

// interfaces
Connect party-line and matrix systems to Dante.
Many facilities already have a party-line or matrix intercom, and Studio Technologies interfaces connect those systems to Dante without replacing them.
The Model 545DR brings two-channel analog party-line circuits into Dante; Studio Technologies lists RTS TW circuits as directly compatible and Clear-Com party-line as compatible. The Model 46A joins 2-wire party-line to the 4-wire ports of a matrix intercom.
For SMPTE ST 2110 plants, the Model 5682 bridges ST 2110 audio to Dante, with 32 or 64 channels in each direction.
// buying through varto
Why buy Studio Technologies through Varto?
These units are small, but each one sits where a show can fail: the commentator’s microphone, the talent’s earpiece, the join between intercom and the audio network.
