Renkus-Heinz, the world leader in steerable sound, announces a new version of
their award-winning Iconyx Gen5 Series integrating Dante™, the industry-leading
media networking technology from Audinate.
All Gen5 Series models including Iconyx and IC Live (ICL-F-RN) will be available
with Dante control. The Brooklyn-based Dante implementation features dual RJ45
connections for fully redundant operation, and a single cable carries both Dante and
RHAON II control data for streamlined connectivity.
Iconyx Gen5 represents the fifth generation of Renkus-Heinz’s acclaimed Iconyx
Series, incorporating UniBeam Technology for dramatically more uniform coverage,
increased output, and faster setup, with new configurations for easier and more
cost effective installation. Dante-enabled models will be designated with a suffix of
RD (e.g., IC16-RD).
Dante is a complete audio networking solution for high-performance audio
distribution over standard IP networks, supporting hundreds of simultaneous
channels of uncompressed audio with ultra-low latency and sub-microsecond
synchronization accuracy. Dante provides manufacturers and users alike with a full
suite of tools and capabilities for full plug-and-play operation, including automatic
device discovery, software-based signal routing, and complete integration with PCs.
“Renkus-Heinz has long integrated networking into our digital products, and we are
pleased to offer Dante connectivity to our customers,” remarked Rik Kirby, VP of
Sales and Marketing at Renkus-Heinz. “Dante provides an easy-to-use, widely
shared standard for audio over IP with the level of quality and performance our
users expect.”
Dante-enabled models of Renkus-Heinz Gen5 products will begin shipping in
February of 2016. Contact your Renkus-Heinz representative for more details.
