It boasts a frequency response of 20Hz – 20kHz @ ±3dB, a signal-to-noise ratio of 87dB (20Hz – 10kHz), and a THD+N (1KHz@1W) of 0.04%.

Control options include RS-232, LAN, and a Web GUI, with a 5-12V trigger input for seamless system integration and an auto-standby function for energy efficiency. The amplifier supports various audio formats, including analog and digital audio, with inputs and outputs designed for maximum performance.

What is Dante AV-H?

Dante stands for digital audio network through ethernet. Dante AV-H by Audinate is one of the leading network based production standards in the AV over IP space. Dante AV-H technology will enable users to stream their camera footage over a local area network with a single ethernet cable. Dante AV-H uses H.26x compression to compress the bandwidth of a camera’s video feed to allow it to stream over a local area network with near zero latency. The H.26x compression standard also provides a high image quality up to YUV 4:4:4 and low latency with 100% audio/visual synchronization. For protection of the user’s content, Dante AV-H is HDCP compliant.

With Dante AV-H, users will also be able to transmit and receive audio and video over their network. Furthermore, with the Dante controller, control for both audio and video will be unified. Users will then be able to control all sources from one screen.

Why use Dante AV-H

The integration of Dante AV-H technology in the BG-AMP150WD offers a range of remarkable advantages. Developed by Audinate, Dante AV-H facilitates seamless video streaming over a single Ethernet cable, ensuring high-quality, low-latency transmission with H.26x compression for exceptional image quality and synchronized audiovisual experience. Its capability to transmit and receive both audio and video over the network simplifies workflows, further enhanced by the unified control provided by the Dante controller. With HDCP compliance for content protection, the BG-AMP150WD maximizes the potential of Dante AV-H, delivering unparalleled user convenience, top-notch image quality, and streamlined control in a cutting-edge AV solution.
