New Genelec 9402A System Management Device for networked audio workflows
Genelec has further expanded its UNIO monitoring ecosystem with the introduction of the new 9402A System Management Device for Audio-over-IP Networking. The 9402A provides Dante and AES67 compatibility for Genelec’s range of Smart Active Monitors and Subwoofers, complementing the existing 9401A model – which already supports Ravenna, ST2110 and AES67 protocols. Compatible with all formats from stereo to 9.1.6, the 9402A deepens Genelec’s commitment to networked audio, and empowers audio professionals to create even more flexible, scalable, and future-proof monitoring solutions. The 9402A supports high-resolution audio with sampling rates up to 192 kHz and bit depths up to 32-bit, fully in the digital domain, ensuring that no quality is lost in the conversion process. The 9402A deploys Gigabit Ethernet low-latency operation and support for broadcast-grade redundant network connectivity, as well as support for modern streaming control integration. Through its single-cable network compatibility, the 9402A also helps simplify facility management and reduces cabling requirements and costs – thereby delivering further sustainability benefits.
