Audix DN4 Dante and AES67 Interface with Four RJ45 Mic Inputs
The DN4 is an interface that brings four Audix installation mics onto a Dante or AES67 network: each mic connects over a single shielded network cable that carries audio, phantom power, the button and the LEDs.
What sets it apart
- Four RJ45 ports for Audix mics
- 24-bit, 48 kHz audio, Dante or AES67
- Powered by 802.3af PoE
- Button and LED logic on each port
One cable per mic
A conventional analog mic needs audio cable, sometimes a control wire and a preamp per mic. The Audix Dante system puts it all on a shielded CAT cable with RJ45 plugs at both ends. Fewer runs through the ceiling, fewer wiring mistakes, and a quicker install. The DN4 takes Audix single-element mics fitted with an RJ45 jack, such as the M70WD and M55WD ceiling mics.
Adjusted remotely
Each channel has its own gain, in eight steps from 0 to +36 dB, a high-pass filter at 15 or 238 Hz and a low-pass filter that is off or set to 5, 7 or 10 kHz. Everything is set in software, with no ladder required, and flash memory keeps the settings through a power cut.
Buttons and LEDs on the network
Each port provides a logic input for the mic's button and two 5 V outputs for its LEDs, driven by the room's processor over the network. The DN4 is Dante Domain Manager ready, takes a static or dynamic IP address, and is evaluated to UL2043 for installation above a drop ceiling.

Frequently asked questions
- Does it need a separate power supply?
- Not with an 802.3af-compliant PoE switch; an external 48 V DC supply is also an option.
- Which mics plug into the DN4?
- Audix single-element mics fitted with an RJ45 jack, such as the M70WD and M55WD.
- Do the mics' buttons and LEDs work?
- Yes: each port has a logic input and two 5 V outputs, controlled by the processor on the network.
