9. Connecting devices
• For analogue audio applications, simply connect one or both audio output XLRs to the analogue input(s) of
the device.
• For VNET devices, connect the VNET Link socket on the Dante Bridge to the VNET In socket of the first
device you wish to control; then connect the VNET Link socket of this device to the VNET In socket of the
next device, continuing as required. The order in which the devices are connected is not important. The Link
socket of the last device in the ‘chain’ need not be connected.
• For VNET2 devices (which have long-distance AES3 integrated with VNET networking) there is no need
to make connections to the audio outs since audio will be delivered to the device in digital format.
(It will be necessary to select digital inputs on the device).
