Switched (daisy chain) connection
Dante devices can be daisy-chained when there are few
connected devices and when not using a switching hub. Connect
them as shown below.

NOTE
•
When using a switched (daisy chain) connection, connect
to either the PRIMARY or SECONDARY connector.
•
If the number of connected devices increases, raising the
latency setting will be necessary.
Redundant connection
For recording situations where retakes are not possible, including
live performances, a connection set up like the following uses two
completely independent primary and secondary networks.

Do not connect the primary and secondary networks to
the same switching hub.
