DANTE LEVEL 2 TEST 2025 UPDATED
ACTUAL EXAM WITH CORRECT
SOLUTIONS.
True or false: On a Dante Network, there must be a different
clock leader for each sample rate on the network. - correct
answer- false. one clock master will provide synchronization to
all dante devices, regardless of their individual sample rates.
Roughly how many channels of 24 bit, 48 kHz audio can be
carried on a 1Gbps connection? - correct answer- 512x512
True or false: A dante audio subscription can be established
between two dante interfaces operating at different sample
rates. - correct answer- False. Each dante interface can only
operate at one sample rate at a time. If a sample rate converter
is employed, it will sit behind the dante network port.
What does the sample rate of an audio system dictate? -
correct answer- The audio resolution in time. According to the
nyquist theorem, the sample rate must be at least twice the
highest audio frequency to be captured.

If we increase the sample rate of. device from 48 kHz to 96
kHz, what is the impact to the network? - correct answer- A 96
kHz subscription will require roughly twice as much bandwidth
as a 48 kHz subscription.
True or false: An audio subscription can be established
between two dante interfaces operating at different bit depths. -
correct answer- True. Like most digital audio devices, dante
devices will usually be able to add missing bits or truncate
extraneous bits to match the expected internal operation.
What does the bit depth of an audio system dictate? - correct
answer- The resolution of the audio signals amplitude. A
greater bit depth increases dynamic range.
What audio sample rates are supported by Dante? - correct
answer- Dante supports most common sample rates from 44.1
kHz to 192 kHz
True or false: A 1 Gbps network switch can manage more dante
channels than a single 1 Gbps link can. - correct answer- True.
A non blocking network switch will be able to handle the total of
all port capacity at all times.
