Product Description

2N^® Net Audio Decoder Lite is a LAN audio converter designed for public sound distribution through the 2N IP Audio System. It is connected to the 2N IP Audio System via the local area network (LAN). It communicates with the 2N^® IP Audio Manager, receives the audio stream, decodes it and converts it into an analogue signal. 

2N^® Net Audio Decoder Lite can be controlled by two front panel buttons or an infrared remote controller. 2N^® Net Audio Decoder Lite is equipped with a digital input and output, which extend the converter options and may be helpful in special applications. 2N^® Net Audio Decoder Lite helps you extend the internal FLASH memory using microSD memory cards. Use the integrated Telnet server to make basic settings for connection of 2N^® Net Audio Decoder Lite into the LAN (refer to the Basic Parameter Settings). Apply the 2N IP Audio System  software for configuration and use of all functions (refer to the 2N^® Net Audio Decoder Quick Start and 2N IP Audio Administration manuals for more details).
