ampnode4

nnounce ampnode4 PoE amplifier with four channels, built-in DSP, and secure cloud integration.

Flexible and secure amplifier

AVAILABLE TO ORDER

The ampnode4 is a 4-channel network audio amplifier that prioritizes security, safety, and reliability, delivering 600W total power with flexible power sharing across channels in a space-efficient half-rack form factor. This AES67 network audio amplifier excels in commercial installations requiring powerful DSP signal processing, Q-SYS integration, and advanced security features.

Built on the nnounce™ secure and scalable audio platform, the ampnode4 supports all contemporary IP audio protocols including AES67, RTP, and VoIP with AES256-GCM encryption, and supports modern network standards, including IPv6. Its hardware neural engine enables advanced applications such as gunshot detection and speech-to-text processing.

Designed for AV integrators, the ampnode4 offers Q-SYS and Bosch PRAESENSA compatibility with cloud connectivity through Simpleway CX, making it ideal for commercial audio systems in corporate, education, and retail environments.

  • Delivers 600W total power in a compact 1U half–width rack package

Bridging the Gap Between Sound and Vision

While nnounce devices are fully integratable with other PA ecosystems, such as Q-SYS, their true power emerges when perfectly paired with Simpleway’s digital signage and public address cloud software, creating a uniquely cohesive and effective communication experience.

Retail, hospitality, educational, healthcare sectors, warehouses, company campuses, and more can adopt the nnounce platform with Enterprise CX system, meeting diverse communication needs and empowering synchronized messaging across environments.

nnounce products paired with Airport CX elevate the passenger experience for airports of all sizes. Operators can instantly trigger announcements for specific flights or trips, with displays automatically updating to show accurate, real-time information, keeping travelers informed and enhancing their journey.

For ground public transport, including trains, ferries, and buses, the Transit CX platform unified with nnounce devices allows for robust and timely management of location-specific announcements and visual information updates throughout entire transportation networks.
