GENELEC 9402A System Management Device per Network Audio-over-IP Dante

The Genelec 9402A System Management Device connects Smart Active Monitoring (SAM) systems to modern broadcast and production networks. It is designed for immersive and scalable configurations. The 9402A distributes multichannel audio over standard IP infrastructure, with a focus on Dante workflows and system reliability.

The Genelec 9402A System Management Device is a multichannel Audio-over-IP (AoIP) interface.

It integrates Smart Active Monitoring (SAM) systems into broadcast and production environments.

It supports uncompressed, low-latency, high-resolution multichannel audio over standard IP networks, specifically Dante.

Immersive audio streaming from a DAW-such as a Dolby Atmos Renderer-to SAM monitors and subwoofers via Dante AoIP.

16-channel AoIP monitoring with bass management for 73xx subwoofers.

Room calibration and monitoring system management via GLM.

Solution designed for Dante users; the 9401A is available for Ravenna.

Enables SAM monitoring systems for use in AoIP networks (Dante, AES67, ST2110).

Bit-perfect transmission, with no conversions or alterations to the audio signal.

Compatible with Dante Controller, Dante Director, and Dante Domain Manager for stream discovery, routing, management, and encryption.

Multiple units can be added to increase the number of channels. A single 9402A supports immersive formats up to 9.1.6 (16 channels).

Compatible with Genelec 7300 Series subwoofers.

Auxiliary AES stereo output for headphones or secondary monitoring.

Integration with GLM 5.2 for system calibration and control.

Integrates into existing Dante infrastructures and workflows.

The redundant network input (ST2022-7) enhances operational reliability.

Supports Dante Media Encryption, Dante Controller, Dante Director (cloud management), and Dante Domain Manager (local management server).

Part of the UNIO monitoring platform and related services.

Compatible with Genelec SAM monitors and 73xx subwoofers.

Scalable architecture: each 9402A adds 16 channels and a subwoofer connection.

It facilitates increased SPL at low frequencies through the use of multiple subwoofers.

It can be configured based on the format, layout, and listening room using GLM 5.2 or later.
