Connectivity Redefined

Networked AV empowers organisations to utilise existing network infrastructure for distributing audio and video signals throughout a facility. Offering scalability, adaptability, and streamlined control, networked AV supports centralised monitoring and system management—essential for delivering consistent, high-quality user experiences. The Xilica Gio Series enables complete end-to-end networked AV by seamlessly integrating consumer devices, computers, and analogue audio systems into a unified networked environment.

The Xilica Gio USB is a compact USB-to-Dante interface designed to connect personal computing devices and unified communications appliances to an installed AV network infrastructure. As part of the Xilica Gio Series, this device enables Bring Your Own Meeting (BYOM) functionality within professional and enterprise environments, facilitating the integration of laptops and conferencing equipment into IP-based audio systems. Gio USB is particularly suited to spaces requiring consistent, high-quality audio experiences across multiple rooms, such as corporate offices, educational institutions, and public sector facilities. By supporting driverless compatibility with leading soft-codec platforms and offering two-way Human Interface Device (HID) synchronisation with Microsoft Teams, Gio USB eliminates the need for additional in-room audio controls. Its discreet, surface-mountable design allows for easy placement near a conference table or room PC, while installation is simplified through Power over Ethernet and a single CatX connection. The Xilica Gio USB is instrumental in reducing AV processing costs in larger deployments by supporting centralised processing topologies. Its role in bridging IT and AV domains ensures that organisations can standardise their meeting environments while maintaining flexibility and operational efficiency. Designed for long-term scalability and networked AV compatibility, the Xilica Gio USB meets the growing demand for unified, cost-effective audio integration across professional facilities.

Gio USB

Combine the convenience of Bring Your Own Meeting (BYOM) with the performance of a fixed-room audio system using Gio USB—a surface-mounted USB-to-Dante interface. Engineered to bridge the divide between AV and IT, Gio USB connects laptops and unified communications (UC) devices directly to the networked AV infrastructure, making it ideal for scalable, cost-effective multi-room configurations in larger installations.

Designed for modern collaboration environments, Gio USB supports hybrid work models and is fully compatible with major soft-codec applications—without requiring additional drivers. It includes integrated HID control, offering two-way synchronisation of volume and mute functions with Microsoft Teams, removing the need for separate audio interfaces.

Installation is straightforward, requiring only a single CatX cable with PoE (IEEE 802.3af), and the compact form factor allows discreet placement near a room PC or conference table for maximum flexibilit

Unlock new integration possibilities by connecting legacy analogue audio devices to your networked AV system with Gio XLR. This dual-gang, in-wall Dante endpoint allows proprietary audio equipment to interface with IP-based infrastructure, enabling centralised control, routing, and monitoring across your facility.

Designed for ease of installation, Gio XLR uses a single CatX cable for both power and data, streamlining setup in professional environments. It features a 2×2 input/output configuration with mic/line level switching and selectable 48V Phantom power via software control, providing the flexibility to support a wide range of audio sources.

As a reliable bridge between traditional audio systems and modern IT networks, Gio XLR brings powerful interoperability and expanded functionality to enterprise AV deployments.

Gio Bluetooth

Enable BYOD integration within your networked AV environment using Gio Bluetooth, an in-wall Bluetooth® 5.0 Class 1 module designed for enterprise-grade audio connectivity. Built to support extended range and high-quality transmission, Gio Bluetooth links personal devices—such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops—to room AV systems, while offering IT administrators advanced control and management capabilities.

Requiring only a single CatX cable for both power and data, Gio Bluetooth fits into a standard single-gang back box and provides configurable options for device naming, PIN-based access, and pairing behaviour.

Engineered for use in professional conferencing spaces, it allows mobile devices to route two-way audio through the installed AV system, leveraging Xilica technologies such as HearClear™ acoustic echo cancellation, voice-lift, and noise suppression¹ for improved clarity.

With enterprise-friendly features like priority pairing, auto-disconnection to avoid unintended connections in busy environments, and remote state control via XTouch panels or third-party platforms² including Crestron® and AMX®, Gio Bluetooth offers a reliable and flexible solution for modern workplaces.
