Audio-over-IP
The SAROS DM-NAX-IC4A-W receives up to four channels of DM NAX audio-over-IP or AES67 encoded audio over a standard IP network. DM NAX devices can also receive the audio stream from DM NVX A/V-over-IP devices and are interoperable with Dante audio devices via the AES67 compatibility mode enabled through Dante Controller® software. The speaker features a built-in 25.5 W PoE+ audio amplifier that drives the local BMR transducer and provides power to three additional SAROS IC4P-W passive speakers.
Digital Signal Processing
Digital Signal Processing (DSP) capabilities such as bass and treble boost and cut, speaker protection and limiting, a full 10-band EQ per output, and output delay can be configured through the web configuration interface. In addition to the audio channel that feeds the local BMR transducer, each RJ-45 output has a discrete audio channel for a total of four channels of available audio processing.
Simple and Clean Installation
The Saros DM-NAX-IC4A is designed for quick and easy installation and years of reliable performance. Its unobtrusive and contemporary grille achieves an appearance well-suited for use in restaurants, retail spaces, houses of worship, universities, and office buildings. Installing the grille requires no hardware or tools, utilizing powerful magnets to hold it in place.
Plenum Rated
The speaker is housed in an integral metal back can, which meets the requirements of UL® 2043 for installation in a plenum space. The wiring connections are accessible behind rear cover panels. Three connections for additional passive speakers are available to expand the total audio coverage area.
