Delec goes Dante with NAM

Going by the name NAM – an acronym for Network Amplifier Module – Delec has introduced a compact Dante decoder with integrated power amplification for easy monitoring of audio signals from Dante networks.

The small device is typically installed near the monitoring position, and the user controls the volume via a serial interface and can select the desired signal from any PC that has access to the appropriate Ethernet network.

In its standard version, NAM has a Dante interface which can decode four signals. The four analogue line outputs are equipped with power amplifiers capable of delivering 6W average power, meaning that audio decoded from the Dante stream can be routed directly to the speakers.

In theatre applications, NAM opens up a practical way of distributing monitoring signals all around a building. For instance, the interface can be used for routing pre-recorded announcements from a server via Ethernet directly to the passive speakers of a paging system.

Meanwhile in broadcast environments, NAM offers the possibility of monitoring various production audio signals, which can be fed into the journalist’s Dante network through a Nexus Dante, card in the main control room. 

For outdoor installations, Delec offers an additional option in a splash-proof surface mounted housing. This NAM version also has a microphone input to allow for analysis of the ambient noise around the loudspeaker and automatic volume control and echo cancellation functions.
