Network Audio and Shure Control Data
MXW devices transport two types of data over the network: Shure Control and Network Audio.
Shure Control
The Shure Control carries data for the control software operation, firmware updates and 3rd party control systems (AMX,
Crestron). This data is transported to all MXW components connected to the network.
Network Audio
This network carries both the Dante digital audio and the control data for Dante Controller. This data is transmitted be
tween the APT, the output device and the computer. The network audio requires a wired, gigabit Ethernet connection to
operate.
The two data types are configured differently for each MXW device. Go to
