Crestron DM-NAX-2XLRI-1G DM NAX Wall Plate with Two XLR Inputs

Crestron part number DM-NAX-2XLRI-1G

The Crestron DM-NAX-2XLRI-1G is a 1-gang audio-over-IP wall plate that adds two XLR inputs to a DM NAX audio network, for microphones or balanced line-level sources. It is powered over Ethernet and sends audio across the network to other DM NAX and DM NVX devices, with AES67 interoperability for Dante systems.

Crestron DM-NAX-2XLRI-1G DM NAX Audio-over-IP Wall Plate with XLR, Black, 1-Gang

About the Crestron DM-NAX-2XLRI-1G

The two XLR inputs accept line or microphone level signals, with up to 60 dB of gain at mic level and ±10 dB source compensation per input. Built-in processing includes EQ (with EQ, high pass, low pass, treble shelf, bass shelf and notch filter types) and left/right balance, and source signal detection shows when audio is present. Crestron quotes a signal to noise ratio of 105 dB from the analogue inputs.

Audio from the inputs is carried over the network as DM NAX or AES67 streams, so it can be routed to DM NAX and DM NVX devices on a managed network. On the rear there is also a balanced stereo line-level output on a 5-pin terminal block, which can feed a Crestron media wall plate such as the MP-WP-2XLRO-1G or MP-WP-2RCAO-1G. Configuration is through a web interface, and SIMPL Windows programming integrates it with a Crestron system.

The plate is powered by PoE (IEEE 802.3af Class 0) and uses 2.9 W. It fits a 1-gang electrical box or plaster ring (not included), with an 89 mm (3.5 in) box depth recommended, or it can be mounted on a rack rail with the included hardware. The metal chassis has a black and silver finish and measures 105 mm high, 44 mm wide and 55 mm deep.

Questions about the Crestron DM-NAX-2XLRI-1G

What is the Crestron DM-NAX-2XLRI-1G?

It is a 1-gang DM NAX audio-over-IP wall plate with two XLR inputs for microphone or line-level signals. It is powered over Ethernet and puts the audio onto the network as DM NAX or AES67 streams, which can be routed to other DM NAX and DM NVX devices.

Can the DM-NAX-2XLRI-1G take microphones?

Yes. Both XLR inputs accept balanced or unbalanced line or microphone level signals. At mic level the maximum gain is 60 dB and the maximum signal level is 2 Vrms. Each input also has ±10 dB source compensation, and source signal detect shows when audio is present.

How is the DM-NAX-2XLRI-1G powered?

It is powered by Power over Ethernet, compliant with IEEE 802.3af Class 0, and works with an IEEE 802.3af compliant Ethernet switch or third-party PoE source. Power consumption is 2.9 W. The same Ethernet connection on the rear carries the DM NAX audio-over-IP networking.

Does it work with Dante?

It is interoperable with Dante audio networking devices through AES67 compatibility. It sends and receives DM NAX and AES67 audio-over-IP streams, and connects directly to a managed network to route audio to or from other DM NAX and DM NVX devices.

How is the wall plate mounted?

It mounts in a 1-gang electrical box or plaster ring, which is not included, and Crestron recommends an electrical box depth of 89 mm (3.5 in). It can also be fitted to a rack rail using the included hardware. The unit measures 105 mm high, 44 mm wide and 55 mm deep.

How much is the Crestron DM-NAX-2XLRI-1G?

Crestron asks its dealers to give the price of the DM-NAX-2XLRI-1G directly rather than publish it online. Add it to your quote list and we will send you a written quote, with delivery, and installation and programming if you need them.

Can 1Install supply, install and programme the DM-NAX-2XLRI-1G?

Yes. 1Install is an authorised Crestron Elite Partner with offices in Skerries, Co. Dublin and Cork. We can supply the DM-NAX-2XLRI-1G on its own, or install, set up and programme it as part of your system. Installation visits are €440 for 4 hours or €880 for a full day, plus VAT and travel.

Does the DM-NAX-2XLRI-1G come with a warranty?

Yes. Everything we supply is new, genuine Crestron with Crestron's standard warranty. If the DM-NAX-2XLRI-1G develops a fault, contact us and we will handle the claim with Crestron. If we installed it, our workmanship is guaranteed for the lifetime of the system.

Is the DM-NAX-2XLRI-1G in stock?

We order Crestron for each quote, so availability depends on Crestron's stock at the time. We check it before we quote and put the expected delivery date on your quote, so you know where you stand before you pay.

Can I buy the DM-NAX-2XLRI-1G without installation?

Yes. We supply Crestron to end users, with or without installation. Like most Crestron devices of this type, it needs setting up or programming before it works in a system, and we can quote for that too.
