in manually configured or Launch auto-configured systems with TesiraFORTÉ X (NOTE: the connecting port must
not
supply PoE to the TesiraFORTÉ X).
TesiraFORTÉ X auto-configuration
supports Biamp AVB peripherals including Parle microphones, Parle amplifiers, EX-
UBT, and HD-1 controllers. Please review the
Biamp Launch hardware discovery
article for details.
Dante
TesiraFORTÉ X supports up to 32x32 Dante audio channels on up to
The Dante IP is visible on the DAN tab in Device Maintenance. It can be changed while the device is unconfigured and
is read-only once a configuration is loaded. Similarly, the Dante device name can be changed only when the Forte X is
unconfigured.
Dante is available on ports 2-5. The TesiraFORTÉ X can be used as a Dante-capable switch if multiple Dante devices
are connected. The Ethernet ports can be thought of as windows into the device, through which the single TesiraFORTÉ
X Dante interface is visible - there is not a unique Dante interface on each network port. Only 1 link is required from
TesiraFORTÉ X to a Dante network (NOTE: the connecting port must
not
supply PoE to the TesiraFORTÉ X). Contact
Biamp support at
with your network topology requirements.
Up to (3) TC-5 can be used to add Dante-capable ports to a TesiraFORTÉ X (always connect P1 of the TC-5 to P2-5 of
TesiraFORTÉ X). A TC-5D is not needed. The Dante interface is hosted in the TesiraFORTÉ X.
Dante discovery
does not pass
across the TesiraFORTÉ X between port 1 and ports 2-5.
To manage connected Dante endpoints, a PC running Dante Controller can be attached either directly to the
TesiraFORTÉ X on ports 2-5, or to port 2-5 through a separate switch (NOTE: the connecting port must
not
supply PoE
to the TesiraFORTÉ X).
AES67 may be enabled on the TesiraFORTÉ X Dante interface in Dante Controller.
USB X
TesiraFORTÉ X has a type B USB port which may be configured as
a mono 1x1 speakerphone or stereo 2x2 channel audio input/
output. USB audio uses a 48kHz sample rate with 16-bit or 24-bit
resolution. The USB bit rate is auto-negotiated with the host
computer. (FW release 4.0 supported only 24-bit connections)
When manually configured in either the 1x1 or 2x2 speakerphone
options, the USB port supports HID mute sync for use with UC
platforms, and supports AEC offloading for UC platforms which
support the option.
When auto-configured with Biamp Launch, TesiraFORTÉ X will present a mono 1x1, 48kHz 16-bit or 24-bit
speakerphone as its USB connection. In the Launched 1x1 speakerphone configuration, the USB port supports HID
