The Audio-Technica ATND8677A Dante Network Gooseneck Mic Desk Stand features a Dante network output and supports Dante Domain Manager and Dante AES67 mode for use with any phantom-powered condenser gooseneck microphone with a 3-pin XLRM-type output connector.

The Audio-Technica ATND8677A Dante Network Gooseneck Mic Desk Stand is a surface-mount microphone base designed to integrate Dante technology with phantom-powered condenser gooseneck microphones. This desk stand provides a direct network connection for high-quality sound reinforcement, conferencing, and distance learning applications. It accommodates any gooseneck microphone equipped with a 3-pin XLRM-type output connector.
The ATND8677A connects directly to a network via an Ethernet cable, eliminating the requirement for traditional audio cabling or soldering. This unit is powered by network PoE and offers plug-and-play compatibility with AES67 networks, including those utilizing Livewire, RAVENNA, and Q-LAN AoIP technologies. Enhanced Dante Domain Manager features provide role-based security, cross-subnet routing, and SNMP alerts. The system remains scalable across Dante’s 512 bidirectional audio channels.
A touch-sensitive capacitive-type user switch with an integrated red/green LED status indicator allows for advanced local and remote control. In Local mode, the switch manages microphone muting through three distinct settings: toggle on/off, press-to-talk, and press-to-mute. In Remote mode, the switch can trigger functions on compatible Dante-enabled devices, such as activating lighting presets or controlling a video camera’s pan and tilt.
The desk stand includes several tools to optimize sound pickup and signal quality:
This TAA-compliant desk stand features a heavy die-cast case designed for stability in demanding environments. Non-slip silicone foam bottom pads minimize the coupling of surface vibrations to the microphone, ensuring clear audio capture. Users can maintain local or remote control over microphone gain, the low-cut filter, the LED indicator, and phantom power settings.
