Success Story: Reliable Outdoor Connectivity for Audio Monitoring Systems

25-123_NEUTRIK_Reliable Outdoor Connectivity _news_700x420.jpg

MeTrao by Event Acoustics integrates NEUTRIK etherCON TOP in its new ABM unit for real-time outdoor sound measurement.

Event Acoustics, a Netherlands-based specialist in acoustic monitoring solutions, develops high-precision systems for professional applications in the event industry, broadcast, and public infrastructure sectors. With the launch of the ABM, a robust outdoor monitoring unit within the MeTrao system, the company introduces a compact and rugged device designed for permanent outdoor deployment, combining measurement accuracy, network reliability, and environmental resilience.

The ABM captures the full audio spectrum from 20 Hz to 20 kHz and handles peak sound pressure levels up to 135 dB. With dual digital microphones, wireless and wired transmission, cloud integration, local readout, and Power over Ethernet (PoE), it offers a scalable and future-proof solution for real-time environmental sound monitoring.

Ensuring reliable Ethernet connectivity in harsh outdoor conditions was a critical aspect of the design. The team at Event Acoustics required a rugged, weatherproof, and long-lasting connection solution that could withstand environmental stress while maintaining professional signal integrity.

To meet these demands, Event Acoustics selected the NE8FDIS-TOP from the NEUTRIK etherCON TOP series. Unlike standard RJ45 connectors, the etherCON design provides mechanical reinforcement, environmental sealing, and TRUE OUTDOOR PROTECTION for demanding applications. With an IP65 rating in both mated and unmated condition (when the sealing cap is closed), the connector is UV-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and built for long-term durability in challenging environments. Its rugged housing and secure mating mechanism protect the connection from shock, dust, and moisture—delivering a clear reliability advantage over conventional Ethernet solutions.

“With NEUTRIK being the industry standard, the NEUTRIK TOP series perfectly complements our all-weather product demands. Whether it’s a temporary setup or a permanent installation, we can depend on our equipment to perform reliably, even under harsh outdoor conditions. The rugged design and proven durability of the TOP series give us the confidence to deliver consistent results, rain or shine.”
— Gijs Rasing, Consultant – Event Acoustics BV

By integrating NEUTRIK etherCON TOP connector, Event Acoustics implemented a robust, field-proven interface tailored for professional use. The result is a durable, standards-compliant, and environmentally resilient monitoring system that supports long-term deployments in real-world outdoor environments.
