Description
The Soundweb London BLU-806DA is a powerful, open-architecture networked signal processor designed for scalable, high-performance audio systems. Featuring Dante / AES67 audio networking and the proprietary 256-channel BLU link digital audio bus, the BLU-806DA delivers low-latency, fault-tolerant performance for mission-critical environments.
Fully configurable via HiQnet™ London Architect, the BLU-806DA provides a flexible drag-and-drop design environment with an extensive library of signal processing and logic objects. Its modular, card-based I/O architecture allows tailored system design with support for analog, digital, AEC, and telephone hybrid cards.
Primary and secondary Dante ports ensure redundancy, while a separate Ethernet port manages control. Support for Dante Domain Manager integration enhances system security and scalability. Clear front-panel LEDs and an informative LCD display provide real-time system status without requiring a PC.
With 12 control inputs, 6 logic outputs, RS-232 connectivity, and EN 54-16 compliance for life safety applications, the BLU-806DA is ideal for large venues, conferencing environments, transportation hubs, hospitality, and enterprise audio systems requiring precision, flexibility, and reliability.
