The StarNet DM256 is a compact, professional unit that converts up to 256 channels of Dante and 256 channels of MADI bidirectionally. The integration of Dante IP core technology enables a massive I/O count over a single Ethernet connection, setting a new benchmark in audio technology. Boasting one of the largest digital I/O capacities, the StarNet DM256 offers 256 channels of MADI input and output via four MADI ports. These ports feature duplex MADI SC optical connections and dual BNC coaxial connections, complying with professional MADI standards. The StarNet DM256's external PSU design ensures efficient heat dissipation, effectively dissipating heat and protecting internal components. This design consideration underscores Neve's commitment to providing robust and reliable audio solutions.
