Neutrik Co., Ltd., the Japanese subsidiary of Neutrik, the top connector brand headquartered in the Principality of Liechtenstein (Headquarters: Higashi-Nihonbashi, Chuo-ku, Tokyo), will exhibit at the "Pro Equipment Exhibition Hiroshima 2026" to be held at NTT Credo Hall from April 8 (Wednesday) to April 9 (Thursday), 2026. The exhibition will feature the introduction of Neutrik's new platform, "Unicorn Platform," which garnered attention at ISE, as well as various main products that have long been supported by industry professionals.

**Exhibition Overview** At the Neutrik booth, in addition to panel displays of various industry-standard products such as XLR, speakON, powerCON, etherCON, and opticalCON, we will showcase a wide range of new products, including the new platform "Unicorn Platform" announced in February this year.

**Highlights** From February 3 to February 6, 2026, ISE (Integrated Systems Europe), an exhibition for audiovisual and system integration, was held in Barcelona, Spain. Neutrik also exhibited, and what particularly drew attention was the introduction of the new product platform, "Unicorn Platform." Until now, Neutrik's TRUE1 has been highly regarded as a "safe power connector for outdoor use." However, on-site, the situation has long persisted where different connectors with different philosophies and standards were used for power and data. The Unicorn Platform re-evaluates this fragmented approach to connectivity and is a new platform conceived to extend the TRUE1 philosophy to the data connection domain. At the venue, we will prepare a mock-up of the new platform and introduce it to all visitors.

-Main specifications of Unicorn Platform-

mediaCON TRUE1 (USB Type-C) • Supports up to 100W power supply (20V/5A USB PD 3.0) • Up to 5 Gbit/s data rate (USB 3.2 Gen1x1) • IP65 / IP66 / IP67 (assembled state) • TRUE1 locking mechanism (internal locking mechanism) • Metal data container structure Scheduled release: Late April 2026 onwards

etherCON TRUE1 (CAT6A) • CAT6A compatible • PoE++ (IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 / Class 8, up to 100W) • IP65 / IP66 / IP67 (assembled state) • TRUE1 locking mechanism (internal locking mechanism) • Airtight design Scheduled release: Late May 2026 onwards

opticalCON TRUE1 (2-fiber) • 2-fiber configuration • Minimized depth design • IP65 / IP66 / IP67 (assembled state) • TRUE1 locking mechanism (internal locking mechanism) Scheduled release: Late May 2026 onwards

In addition, we will demonstrate the NA-2I2O-DLINE, a new DANTE interface launched in 2025. The NA-2I2O-DLINE, like its predecessor NA2-IO-DLINE, features two inputs and two outputs. The thick rubber protective cover is removable, and with optional accessories, it can be mounted on tabletops, trusses, or 19-inch racks. This new generation of DLINE products further improves audio performance, achieving levels of up to 24 dBu for both input and output, a dynamic range exceeding 100 dB, an S/N ratio exceeding 108 dB, and crosstalk performance of -100 dB at 20 kHz for output and -110 dB for input. It also complies with the AES67 standard. It is ideal as equipment for users who have already built a DANTE network and need to add Line-in/Line-out at specific locations.
