Dante for Multichannel Audio
A single Brooklyn module provides a complete, ready-to-use Dante interface, simultaneous channels of bi-directional digital audio streaming.
The onboard MicroBlaze CPU includes its own Linux environment, enabling the development of custom embedded applications for device and network control and monitoring. A wide range of interfaces is supported, and Audinate’s comprehensive software toolkit streamlines integration, dramatically lowering time to market.
The compact Brooklyn delivers unprecedented power and performance, with +/- 1 microsecond synchronization and ultra-low latency. Brooklyn modules support all the features that have made Dante the number one choice for AV equipment manufacturers media professionals, including easy setup and installation, intuitive operation, flexible configuration, performance monitoring, and exceptional performance.
Power and Simplicity
With a powerful FPGA engine, plus onboard micro-processor, Brooklyn gives a comprehensive application environment to streamline software integration.
Brooklyn offers its own high-resolution, low jitter clocking, or connects to external clock, and supports industry standard sample rates of 44.1, 48, 88.2, 96, 176.4, and 192kHz.
Audinate’s acclaimed networking expertise is built into every Brooklyn module, with a comprehensive toolkit that gives you a vast and varied array of tools, options, and possibilities. Its simple software development environment gives you maximum flexibility for custom functionality and control.
