Shure Incorporated
8/87
The Shure ANI4OUT Audio Network Interface con
verts 4 channels of Dante digital audio into discrete
analog signals. Available in both XLR and block con
nector versions, each box uses a single network cable
to receive audio and power using Power over Ethernet
(PoE). The web application gives technicians and ad
ministrators control over channel levels and settings
from any computer connected to the same network.
Amplifiers and Loudspeakers
Audio from the far end is routed to local loudspeakers.
Dante-enabled speakers or amplifiers connect directly
to the network switch, while analog systems require
an audio network interface to receive networked au
dio.
Computers and Control Systems
Browser-
Based
Web Ap
plication
A computer connected to the network
provides control of Shure networked
components through the web applica
tion for each device.
Dante
Software
A computer running Dante Virtual
Soundcard, Dante Controller, and
web conferencing software is used to
send and receive audio between the
near end and far end.
Control
Systems
(AMX,
Crestron,
etc.)
If using a third-party control system,
Microflex Advance microphones send
and receive commands over Ether
net. If an analog logic signal must be
sent over the network, the Shure
ANI4IN Audio Network Interface re
ceives analog logic signals and con
verts them into Ethernet control
strings.

These use cases will help you understand how Shure devices fit in conference rooms, huddle rooms, and multi
purpose spaces.
