Know before you buy
The VLDT-BT2DT acts as a bridge, converting incoming Bluetooth audio signals into a standard 2-channel Dante digital stream. Once connected to your network via Ethernet, it appears as a Dante device, allowing you to route the audio to any other Dante-enabled hardware using Dante Controller software.
Yes, the adapter supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), meaning you can power it directly through your network cable if your switch is PoE-enabled. Alternatively, you can use the USB-C port if a local power source is more convenient for your installation.
The adapter supports a wide range of modern codecs, including SBC, AAC, APTX, APTX-LL, and APTX-HD. This ensures compatibility with most mobile devices while maintaining high audio fidelity.
Configurable delay settings of 1ms, 2ms, or 5ms allow you to fine-tune the synchronization of your audio stream. This is particularly useful for aligning the Bluetooth input with other audio sources in your network to prevent lip-sync issues or phase discrepancies.
While the adapter supports Bluetooth input resolutions up to 192KHz at 24-bit, the Dante output is standardized at 48KHz at 24-bit. This ensures reliable, professional-grade performance across your Dante network infrastructure.
