Notes about Dante

Dante is a transmission protocol developed by Audinate. Using networks based on gigabit Ethernet standards, it en-ables multichannel (512IN/512 OUT) transmission and high precision, for example. Check the Audinate website for details about Dante. https://www.audinate.com/.

Connecting to a Dante network

In order to set up and use this card, you must also set up the Ethernet network that it is connected to, a computer that runs Dante Controller and other devices that support Dante. Requirements for LAN cables used for connections with the connectors on this unit Use STP cables that are at least category Se. Both crossover and straight cables can be used.

ATTENTION
This unit is not compatible with 100Mbps Ethernet switching hubs. Always use switching hubs that support Layer 2 and Gigabit Ethernet.
NOTE

  • Set the computer to set the IP address automatically.
  • Restarting the computer might be necessary if a previous network setting is still active on the computer.
Switched (daisy chain) connection

Dante devices can be daisy-chained when there are few connected devices and when not using a switching hub. Connect them as shown below.
Switched \(daisy chain\) connection

Switched (daisy chain) connection example

NOTE

  • When using a switched (daisy chain) connection, either DATA or DATA+PoE connectors can be used.
  • If the number of connected devices increases, raising the latency setting will be necessary.

Using Dante Controller

    Set the bit depth.

  6. Latency setting
    Set the latency. Use the following guidelines to change the latency set-ting.

Selectable latency value| Connected network setup guide- line
---|---
1 msec| The transmission route from the
transmitting device to the receiving
device passes through 10 gigabit
switching hub.
2 msec| The transmission speed of the
transmitting device is 100 Mbps.
5 msec| Use this maximum selectable la-
tency value when creating a large-
scale network.

ATTENTION

  • Changing the name of a device will clear audio routing settings. For this reason, we recommend changing de-vice names to names that are easy to identify before set-ting audio routings.
  • Depending on network connection conditions, setting the latency to a value higher than the guideline might be necessary.

NOTE
When using a switched (daisy chain) connection, which does not use a switching hub, set the latency accord-ing to the number of Dante devices that signals pass-through as shown below.
