AJA Dante AV 4K-T and Dante AV 4K-R utilize the new Dante AV Ultra solution that enables networked video to be used alongside the industry leading Dante audio-over-IP platform on standard 1 GigE IP networks.
Both devices support Dante AV Ultra signals up to 4K/UltraHD, with 12G-SDI and HDMI 2.0 inputs or outputs. Dante AV provides ease-of-use, seamless multi-vendor interoperability, and an integrated control experience that customers have come to expect from AJA Video and Dante by Audinate.

- Compatible with Audinate Dante Controller software on macOS and Windows
Dante AV 4K-T
Encode 12G / HDMI video with embedded audio into Dante AV Ultra JPEG 2000.
- Dante AV Ultra Transmitter (JPEG 2000)
- 4K/UltraHD/2K/HD/VESA
- 12G-SDI and HDMI 2.0 In
- 1 GigE POE+ IP

Dante Controller
Use Dante Controller software on macOS or Windows to set up your video and audio signal routing. Use this application to set up the video and audio routing between Dante devices, including Dante AV 4K-T and 4K-R, control the video and audio connections in the Dante setup, and move audio and video in real time over an Ethernet network.
Dante Via
Use Dante Via to configure audio devices to appear on the Dante network; for example, making the audio portion of AJA's Dante AV 4K-T and 4K-R appear as separate audio source channels on the Dante network.
Dante Virtual Soundcard
Dante Virtual Soundcard emulates a physical PC or Mac soundcard, but instead of connecting to actual physical audio devices like a mic, it connects to the Dante network. It can receive audio signals from the Dante network, including from Dante AV 4K-T and 4K-R, and present them to your DAW app just like a normal physical soundcard would.
