11.1. Connection methods
There are two methods of connecting a PC-D/DI series unit to a Dante network, and you can use a combination
of these methods.
11.1.1. Redundant connection
A redundant connection allows you to construct a system that is more resistant to network malfunctions than a
daisy-chained network. A redundant connection consists of two circuits, a primary and a secondary.
Communication normally occurs on the primary circuit, but automatically switches to the secondary circuit if a
problem occurs, such as the primary circuit being disconnected.
NOTE
• No more than 80 Dante units should be connected to the same network.
If you need to connect more than 80 units, divide them into subnets.
NOTE
• If you want to operate Dante Controller and PV amp editor on the same computer, connect them
using separate network interface cards.
