Comprehensive Questions
(Frequently Tested) with
Verified Answers.
Dante audio streams over WiFi networks [are _______________________]. - Answer: not supported
The bit depth of an audio system dictates - Answer: The amplitude resolution of each sample
Does Dante support MIDI - Answer: No. Dante only transports audio data and does not interfere with
MIDI.
Is there any advantage to using automatic IP addressing on a Dante network - Answer: Yes. Automatic
addressing ensures that devices create a working LAN.
How are device names used in Dante - Answer: Subscriptions are made from name to name
Dante works best with [______________] switches - Answer: gigabit
On a Dante network, latency is - Answer: deterministic, set per device
As sample rate is increased on a device, what other property is usually changed - Answer: Channel count
is reduced
Where do Dante settings reside? - Answer: On individual Dante devices
In the Dante Controller Routing tab, a green check mark indicates - Answer: Subscription successful
,Which of the following are diagnostic features of Dante Controller? (check all that apply) - Answer: 1.
Latency monitoring
2. Clock monitoring
How does Dante interact with Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) switches? - Answer: EEE switches are not
recommended for use with Dante
When should fiber be used for an Ethernet connection? - Answer: When runs over 100 meters are
required.
The easiest way to get IP addresses for a functional stand-alone Dante network is for all devices and
computers to - Answer: Use the "obtain an IP Address Automatically" setting
If a network is only used for Dante and has only one network switch, then - Answer: The network does
not require a managed switch
Does Dante require special network cabling? - Answer: Regular CAT5E or CAT6 Ethernet cable is
recommended
How are devices added to a Dante network - Answer: Devices are automatically discovered and
displayed in Dante Controller
Dante uses [_________________________] switches. - Answer: standard
How are devices restored to a Dante network after power cycle - Answer: Devices and connections are
automatically restored
What does the Dante Clock Master do - Answer: Provides synchronization for all Dante devices on the
network
Does a Dante network require special configuration for clocking - Answer: No. A Clock Master is always
automatically elected by Dante
, A[______________] network topology is a best practice for Dante. - Answer: star
What is latency - Answer: Latency is the audio signal delay in any audio system.

Answer: 1. Open both transmitter and receiver to expose channels
2. Click green checkmark at intersection of channels you wish to unsubscribe
3. Wait for green checkmark to disappear
Audio sent over a Dante network is - Answer: uncompressed, bit-perfect
Dante is an example of [_____________________________]. - Answer: an audio over IP (AoIP) solution
What are the steps to create a subscription in Dante Controller? (drag to put steps in the correct order) -
Answer: 1. Open the transmitter and receiver to expose channels of each
2. Click at the intersection of the two channels you wish to connect
3. Wait for green check mark to appear
What is a LAN - Answer: A computer network that interconnects computers using a common range of IP
addresses
