Setting
Once your NBB-04R/NBB-04T is powered, you can configure your NBB-04R/NBB-04T by direct
connecting it to your computer or via the Ethernet switch. That is to say that the NBB-04R/NBB-
04T can direct talk to your computer or via switch. See picture below for an illustration.
All the routing assignment and device configuration are set via Dante Controller software which is
available free from the following Audinate webpage,

User's guide of Dante Controller can be found on the following webpage,

Besides the routing assignment, mostly, you should set the operating sample rate of your NBB-
04R/NBB-04T to meet the sample rate of your whole Dante network. Basically, all the devices
in the same Dante network should be synced to the same sample rate. You do not need to worry
about the bit-depth of coding of your audio stream in network. Although the NBB-04R/NBB-04T
encodes/decodes audio in 24-bit PCM stream, it automatically does bit-depth converting when it
streams audio to/from other Dante-enabled devices manipulating audio data in different bit-depth.
By default, the NBB-04R device transmits one or a couple of channels of audio in flow to a single
particular device in remote. The NBB-04R supports merely 2 audio flows simultaneously. When
you need the audio received from NBB-04R to be transmitted to more than 2 devices, you can
assign the channels needed to be transmitted to more than 2 remote devices in a multicast flow by
clicking the multicast button in the device view window in Dante Controller.
Usually, UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) Cat.5e cable should be good
enough for all the network installation. However, STP (Shielded Twisted
Pair) Cat.5e cable is strongly recommended if you plan to route the cable
through noisy environment. The foil or braided screens in STP cable can
provide great noise immunity from electromagnetic interference around.
Also, make sure the EIA/TIA-568B standard is fully followed for the RJ-45 plug wiring.
