The Tesira DAN-1 is a modular Dante digital audio networking card for use with Tesira SERVER and SERVER-IO devices. Dante is a proprietary media networking solution developed by Audinate and is fully compliant with IEEE standards on 100Mbps and Gigabit networks. The DAN-1 allows a Tesira system to send and/or receive digital audio from other Dante endpoints over an Ethernet network utilizing standard network switches.
The DAN-1 allows up to 64x64 channels of interconnectivity with any other Dante device, including non-Biamp hardware. Audinate’s Dante Controller software is required to complete stream assignments for a Tesira configuration. Sample rates are 44.1/48kHz by default, other rates may be available as determined by Dante Controller and connected devices. A Dante endpoint can simultaneously send and receive streams from more than one device. A secondary Dante port is available for network redundancy.
Tesira DAN-1 hostnames will be unique, following the convention TesiraServernnnnnnnn-Slotnn where the Tesira's Serial Number and Card Slot Number are appended to the string "TesiraServer".
