Turtle AV Dante Enabled Mic Preamp
The Turtle AV Dante Enabled Mic Preamp (TAV-JEF) is a professional Dante-enabled microphone preamp designed to connect microphones directly to Dante® and AES67 audio networks with low-noise conversion, remote gain control, and flexible source-side processing. Built for broadcast, live production, boardrooms, lecterns, council chambers, stadiums, and installed AV environments, JEF is well suited to field, sideline, and gooseneck microphone applications. With a balanced XLR female mic input, regulated +48V phantom power, selectable input sensitivity, WebUI and API control, dual locking RJ45 etherCON network ports for Primary and Secondary Dante connections, and PoE support, the TAV-JEF delivers reliable and intelligently managed networked microphone integration in a compact form factor.
Key Features
- Dante-Enabled Mic Preamp: Connects microphones directly to Dante and AES67 audio networks for professional AV, broadcast, and installed audio applications.
- Balanced XLR Mic Input: Features a balanced XLR female microphone input with a maximum input level of 24dBu for dependable professional connectivity.
- Selectable Input Sensitivity: Gain options of 0dBu, -10dBu, -20dBu, -30dBu, -40dBu, and -50dBu allow flexible matching to different microphone sources.
- +48V Phantom Power: Regulated phantom power supports condenser microphones and other compatible sources.
- Wide Sample Rate Support: Supports 44.1kHz to 96kHz operation at 16-bit and 24-bit for flexible deployment across networked audio systems.
