NEXO DPU Digital Audio Patch Unit 1U για NXAMP & NXAMPMK2

The NEXO DPU (Digital Patch Unit) is a 1U rack-mountable audio output expander designed exclusively for NEXO NXAMP and NXAMPMK2 powered TD controllers. It provides eight additional balanced analog audio outputs via XLR connectors, converting the digital audio stream from the controller into high-quality analog signals. The unit is powered directly through the EtherCon connection, eliminating the need for an external power supply. Its fanless, robust steel chassis ensures silent operation and durability for professional touring, fixed installations, and live sound applications.

Advantages

Expand your NXAMP system with eight extra analog outputs without compromising audio quality. The DPU supports up to 24-bit/96 kHz audio, maintaining the pristine sound of your NEXO setup. Its passive cooling and compact 1U form factor make it ideal for space-constrained racks. Status LEDs provide instant visual feedback on link and activity.
