Dante is a network audio protocol developed by the
Audinate. Within a Giga-bit Ethernet (GbE), Dante
delivers multi-channel audio signals at various sampling
frequencies and bit rates, as well as device control signals.
Visit the Audinate website for more details on Dante.

Caution when using a
network switch
Please do not use the EEE function (*) of network switches
in a Dante network.
Although power management should be negotiated
automatically in switches that support EEE, some switches
do not perform the negotiation properly.
This may cause EEE to be enabled in Dante networks
when it is not appropriate, resulting in poor
synchronization performance and occasional dropouts.
Therefore we strongly recommend the following:
• When using a managed switch, turn off the EEE
function of all ports used by Dante. Do not use a
switch that is unable to turn off the EEE function.
• If using an unmanaged switch, do not use a switch that
supports the EEE function. Such switches are unable to
turn off the EEE function.
* EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) is a technology that reduces switch
power consumption during periods of low network traffic. It is also
known as Green Ethernet or IEEE802.3az.
There are two ways to connect the Rio to a Dante network.
Please refer to the Operation Manual and other related
documents for more information on how to set up and
and connect your Dante-enabled devices.
NOTE
A daisy chain connection is suitable for a simple system with a
small number of devices.
Use a star network if a large number of devices are connected.
Daisy Chain Network
A daisy chain is a wiring scheme in which multiple devices
are connected together in sequence. In this way,
networking is simple and requires no network switches.
If you connect a large number of devices, you must set a
higher latency value to avoid skipping audio that could be
caused by an increased delay in signal transfer among the
devices. Also, if a connection is broken in a daisy chain
network, the signal flow is interrupted at that point and no
signal will be transferred beyond that point.
