APPENDIX B: Dante Network Setup
Introduction
Installing the iVAM2-2 into an existing and functioning Dante network is virtually
plug and play. The iAM rear panel AoIP jack supports 1Gb/s and 100Mb/s Ethernet
devices in Dante Audio over IP network configurations.
The AoIP option on the iVAM2-2 supports Hitless and has 2 RJ-45 interfaces, a
primary interface and a secondary interface.
Additionally, an SFP slot is provided to receive the AoIP signal using network fiber
SFPs. These are 1G SFP slots. The SFP slot always acts as a primary interface.
On iVAM2-2, the AoIP source can be selected through the Source Select option.
The iVAM2-2 is set up at the Wohler factory to be used as a slave rather than a
master within the Dante network. Other devices or software, such as a
Dante
Controller
, are expected to be responsible for most device configurations and all
audio routing.
