The xNode2 lightweight, half-rack, high-performance AoIP interface from Telos Alliance is loaded with advanced features and capabilities. They’re fanless, which means they’re noiseless too. Versatile mounting options let you deploy two xNode2s in just 1RU of rack space, or on ceilings, walls, and under counters with an available wall-mount kit. xNode2s have studio-grade audio performance specs and offer redundant power options using AC mains and PoE+. Dual 1000MB network interfaces support SMPTE 2022-7 seamless protection switching of RTP datagrams. xNode2s are Livewire+ AES67 compliant, including Livewire advertisement and Session Announcement Protocol (SAP).

The Microphone xNode2 has four professional-grade microphone preamps with selectable
Phantom power and Line input options. Software-adjustable gain adjusts the Microphone
preamp. There are also four balanced analog line outputs to conveniently deliver headphone
and studio monitor feeds back to your talent. Inputs and outputs are presented both on
easy-to-install RJ-45s and high-density DB-25s, both of which connect to easily available
3rd-party breakout cables, to suit your connection preference.

  • Main Features:
  • Fanless design with cast-aluminum heat sinks is completely silent in-studio. Front-panel heat sinks are cooled by ambient air, not “rack air,” eliminating overheating worries.
  • xNode2s are ‘universal translators’ that support that support a huge installed base of Livewire+ hardware as well as audio streams from other AES67-compliant devices.
  • High-resolution front-panel multi-function LCD color display meters inputs and outputs or GPIO status and gives software and other status information.
  • Power-efficient: xNode2s use just 16 Watts each.
  • Exclusive redundant power plan uses AC and Power over Ethernet plus (IEEE802.3at) supplied by compliant Ethernet switches. Two front-panel LED glow when AC mains power is used and when PoE+ is used.
  • SMPTE 2022-7, Seamless Protection Switching of RTP Datagrams: Dual NICs allow you to stream to separate network branches for RTP audio redundancy. Automatic failover to the available RTP stream.
  • Built-in Syslog server with configurable event filter and external logging.
  • Synchronize your AES master clock to a designated xNode2 AES/EBU input to keep all of your AES streams synchronized to the house clock.
  • xNode2s use premium components, including rugged cast aluminum faceplates and heat sinks, high-resolution LCD displays, bulletproof power supplies designed for high availability telecom applications, and studio-quality SRCs with recording-studio specs.
  • I/O connections via industry-standard RJ-45 audio connectors or high-density DB-25 connections, both available prefabricated and ready to attach in seconds.
  • Versatile mounting options: Use freestanding, rack singly or side-by-side in 1 RU, or wall-mount using an optional surface-mount kit.
  • Analog xNode2 inputs can be configured to supply four stereo audio channels or eight true mono channels. Outputs support the same variety of selections, easily selectable in software via the built-in web interface.
  • On the Analog, AES/EBU, Mixed Signal, and Microphone xNode2s, a fully configurable mixing matrix allows for the mixing of both physical and network inputs, stream conversion, and a multitude of other unique solutions.
