The DNT processors send and receive audio via the

Dante network, and to and from local devices con-

nected directly to them.

Gigabit Ethernet switch

Using Switched and Redundant Modes

NOTE: See page 8 for instructions on

selecting the mode using Dante Controller

software.

Set processors to the

Switched mode for setup.

In the

Switched mode, the Primary and Sec-

ondary ports can be connected in any combi-

nation since there is an ethernet switch in the

hardware.
In the

Redundant mode, the Primary ports on

all processors must be connected to the first net-

work and the

Secondary ports on all processors

must be connected to the second network.
After all connections and settings are completed

and the system is passing audio through the net-

work, connect the second network and set the

processors to the

Redundant mode.
