About the AltitudeCI
Trinnov AltitudeCI – Scalable Immersive Audio for Custom Integration
The Trinnov AltitudeCI brings Trinnov’s exclusive active acoustics technologies to the world of custom integration, with native DanteⓇ and AES67 support, a scalable channel count, and a future-proof network architecture designed for the most demanding residential and professional environments.
Built for Scalable, Networked Integration
Dual AoIP Support – AltitudeCI supports both AES67 and DanteⓇ natively, combining the precision of DCI and pro audio standards with Dante’s plug-and-play simplicity. Directly connect to digital amplifiers like the Amplitude16 for a seamless all-digital workflow.
Three Ethernet Ports, Fibre-Ready – Featuring one RJ45 port and two SFP cages (fibre or copper), AltitudeCI adapts to any network. Configurable for redundant AoIP streams, segregated networks, or integrated switch mode.
Scalable Channel Count – Available from 8 to 32 outputs (in 2-channel increments). A 64-channel build-to-order version will launch in 2026 for large-scale, DCI-grade private cinemas and pro audio applications.
Flexible Outputs for Any System
8 Balanced Analogue Outputs – Ideal for Hi-Fi or compact theatre systems.
Up to 32 AES/EBU Digital Channels – Input and output, no extra cards required.
Native AoIP Routing – Fully compatible with DanteⓇ and AES67.
Hybrid Systems Made Easy – Build combinations of analogue, digital, and networked outputs without external converters.
The integrated flexible routing matrix eliminates the need for optional I/O cards or external hardware — simplifying installation and maximising reliability.
