CONNECTING THE BEATRICE W1 TO A DANTE NETWORK
The Beatrice W1 is a network audio device utilizing the reliable and versatile Dante
audio over IP protocol. Dante is a proprietary system (although very widely used) the
originators of which are Audinate.
The information below is only meant as a very basic guide. Full details of the power
of Dante network audio and instructions for using it can be found at
Getting Dante Controller
If you are connecting the Beatrice W1 to a new Dante network the first thing you will
need to do is to get the free Dante controller software from Audinate.
This can be downloaded by visiting Audinate’s web site at
Connecting Beatrice To The Network
Beatrice
W1’s can be connected to the network that you are going to use for your
audio distribution simply by plugging in either, and, or any of the network
connections on the rear. Once connected to the network it will be possible to see the
inferno from within the Da
nte controller and route its’ audio circuits.
Audio Over IP Network
We strongly recommend that you consider your network topology carefully and
would not recommend sharing broadcast audio and general data on the same
network.
