Description

Simplify multichannel audio routing with the Violet Audio io44 EtherCON-to-analog I/O adapter, a compact, passive solution for transmitting four balanced audio channels over a single shielded Cat5e or Cat6 cable. Designed for live sound, broadcast, studio recording and permanent AV installations, the io44 features four locking XLR male connectors, four locking XLR female connectors and a locking EtherCON-style RJ45 port for flexible bidirectional signal routing. Connect microphones, mixers or compatible audio equipment and send signals between the stage and front-of-house console, through wall cavities or across installation spaces using a single cable instead of multiple individual XLR runs. The rugged all-metal chassis provides protection for professional environments, while compatibility with another io44 or DX08B and DX16B splitter devices supports flexible system configurations. With its entirely passive Pure Path design requiring no external power, the io44 provides a straightforward, portable solution for organizing and extending balanced analog audio connections.
