2 Applications
This horn speaker is suited for versatile PA applications, es-
pecially for fixed installation (e . g . for background sound
and announcements) . The speaker is designed as a 2-way
system with a separate amplifier each for the high frequency range
and the low frequency range . Due to its weatherproof ABS hous-
ing (IP 66), the speaker is also suitable for outdoor applications . The
speaker features an Ethernet interface for connection to a Dante audio
network . From this network, audio signals can be received via one or
two channels . At the same time, it is possible to control the internal
signal processor via this interface . The following functions can be
configured in the signal processor via a computer:
For each of the two input channels separately:
– GAIN
– MUTE
– parametric equalizer (PEQ) with 10 filters and 8 filter characteristics
– peak limiter
For both input channels together:
– DELAY, adjustable as a time (ms /s) or a distance (mm / m / mil / inch /feet)
– high pass filter (LOW CUT) with 10 filter characteristics of different
slopes
– LINK facilities of the settings for the two input channels
Various configurations can be saved to IT-400DT and retrieved as de-
sired . Remote control via tablet computer or smartphone is possible .
The speaker is supplied with power via the network connection (Power
over Ethernet) .

2.1 Dante
Dante, an audio network developed by the company Audinate, allows
transmission of up to 512 audio channels at the same time . Dante
(Digital Audio Network Through Ethernet) uses a common Ethernet
standard and is based on the Internet protocol . The transmission
of audio signals is uncompressed and synchronized, with minimum
latency . The advantage over analog audio signal transmission is a
cost-effective connection of components via standard network cables
and low susceptibility to interference, even in case of long transmission
paths . In addition, signal routing between components that have once
been connected can be changed by software at any time . In the Dante
network, units configured as transmitters are used as signal sources . By
means of the program "Dante Virtual Soundcard" from the company
Audinate, computers can also be used as signal sources, e . g . to feed
audio files replayed on the computer to the Dante network .
The speaker IT-400DT is equipped with two Dante receiving chan-
nels . The signals of these channels can be mixed in the internal signal
processor as desired . The receiving channels are assigned to any two
transmitting channels in the Dante network via the Dante configura-
tion program "Dante Controller" (
