AJA OG-DANTE-12GAM, openGear 12G-SDI / DANTE 64-Channel Embedder / Disembedder

The Ultimate Bridge Between SDI and Dante Ecosystems

The AJA OG-DANTE-12GAM is a high-performance openGear card designed to bridge the gap between SDI video environments and Dante audio networks. This powerful embedder and disembedder features dual 12G-SDI input and output ports, allowing for the simultaneous processing of up to 32 channels of audio embedding and 32 channels of disembedding. It serves as the perfect gateway for broadcasters and ProAV integrators looking to streamline complex audio workflows.

High-Performance 12G-SDI Connectivity

Equipped with two independent 12G-SDI inputs and two outputs, the OG-DANTE-12GAM supports a wide range of video formats including 4K, UltraHD, 2K, HD, and SD. Each SDI connection supports up to 16 channels of embedded audio, enabling a total of 64 channels of bridging per card. This ensures that high-resolution video remains perfectly synced with professional-grade digital audio across your entire facility.

Robust Dante Audio Networking

Dante has become the industry standard for digital audio distribution, offering low-latency transport over standard IP networks. The OG-DANTE-12GAM includes Primary and Secondary Gigabit Ethernet ports, providing essential redundancy for mission-critical live environments. Whether you are routing audio to mixers, amplifiers, or DAWs, this card ensures a stable and scalable infrastructure.

Unmatched Density and Scalability

Designed for the openGear OG-X-FR frame, this card allows for incredible density in a rack-mountable form factor. A single fully populated frame can house up to ten OG-DANTE-12GAM cards, delivering a massive 640 channels of audio bridging. This makes it a perfect solution for OB vans, flykits, and large-scale production facilities where space is at a premium.

Seamless Software Integration

Configuration and routing are simplified through industry-standard software. Use Dante Controller to manage audio signal paths across your network in real-time. For hardware status and signal configuration, the card fully supports DashBoard, providing a unified interface for Windows, macOS, and Linux users.
