INTEGRAL
Network
MA matrix-amplifiers have 2 RJ45 connectors in the rear panel for
IP network connections. The RJ45 is used to connect the unit to a
computer via router (Wi-Fi or not) or to an Ethernet switch in the
installation. RJ45 connectors can also be used to send and receive
DANTE digital audio. The two RJ45 connectors are connected to
an internal Ethernet switch which enables Daisy-chaining of up to
eight units. CAT5e cables or superior are highly recommended.
DANTE digital audio as well as control and management data from
ALMA will use the same Ethernet cable.
DANTE digital channels assignment between devices must be
done via DANTE Controller software (https://www. audinate.com/
products/software/dante-controller). See chapter on Dante chan-
nel configuration and assignment.
Since there can be multiple connection and configuration options,
only the most common will be described below.
Static IP and Switch Connection
The system basic connection consists of an Ethernet switch con-
nected to the computer via cable, as shown in the following illus-
tration. The system is configured and monitored with Alma soft-
ware. Ip address management will be static:
