Dante Level 1 Cert Test

The Sample rate of an audio system dictates

the highest audio frequency that the system can handle

What is LAN

a computer network that interconnects computers using a common range of IP Adresses

what sample rates are supported by dante

33.1kHz up to 192kHz

Steps to deleting a subscription

1. Open both transmitter and reciever to expose channels

2. click green checkmark at intersection of channels you wish to unsubscribe

3. wait for green checkmark to disappear

do dante devices require special IP configurations

No, all commonly supported IP address methods are supported

how are devices added to a dante network

devices are automatically discovered and displayed in the Controller

in the dante controller routing tab, a green checkmark indicates

subscription successful

as sample rate is increased on a device, what other property is usually changed

channel count is reduced

the easiest way to get ip addresses for a functional stand alone dante netowrk is for all devices to

use the "obtain an IP address automatically" setting

can dante use fiber instead of copper cables for ethernet?

yes

are dante audio streams supported over wifi networks

no

how are devices restored to a dane network after a power cycle

devices and connections are automatically restored

how does dante interact with energy efficient ethernet (EEE) switches

EEE switches are not recommended for use with dante

what is meant by a stand alone dante network

one that is not connected to the internet or to other networks

what does the dante clock master do

provides synchronization for all dante devices on the network

on a dante network latency is

deterministic, set per device

what is the correct order of the steps to create a subscription in dante controller

1. open the transmitter and receiver to expose channels of each

2. clock at the intersection of the two channels you wish to connect

3. wait for green checkmark to appear

the names of the devices and channels in dante are

user definable and remembered by devices

when should fiber be used for an ethernet connection

when runs over 100 m are required

does dante require special networking cabling?

regular CAT5E ethernet cable is recommended, dante is built to run on standard IP networks, using standard ip equipment and cables

dante works best with [blank] switches

Gigabit

what is latency

latency is the audio signal delay in any audio system

does a dante network require a special configuration for clocking

no, a clock master is always automatically elected by dante

aprox how much bandwidth is consumed by 64 channels of audio at 48kHz/ (excluding network overhead)

74 mbits/sec

what type of switches does dante use?

standard

if a network is only used for dante and has only one network switch then

the network does not require a managed switch

where do dante settings reside

on the individual dante devices

which of the following are diagnostic features of dante controller

Latency and clock monitoring

a connection between dante audio channels is called

a subscription

dante devices with different sample rates can be on the same network BUT

cannot subscribe channels between them

does dante support MIDI

no, dante only transports audio data

dante transmitters are sources, date receivers are

destinations

the default latency of 1 ms is

very low and suitable for the majority of applications.

a gigabit connection can handle how many channels of dante audio at 48k/24bit?

512x512

is there any advantage to using automatic IP addressing on a dante nework

yes, automatic addressing ensures that devices create a working LAN

the bit depth of an audio system dictates

the amplitude resolution of each sample

how are device names used in dante

subscriptions are made from name to name

if dante controller is quit while audio is flowing on a dante network, what happens

NOTHING. dante controller is not required to be present or a dante network to work

what is the best network topology to use for dante

star

audio sent over a dante network is (relating to compression)

uncompressed, bit-perfect

dante is an example of

an audio over IP solution (AoIP)
