Audinate Dante

Audinate Dante

All the groups on Luminex switches are configured to work with the Audinate Dante audio protocol out-of-the-box, no additional configuration is needed.
  1. GigaCore switches are managed switches with a friendly user interface. The Araneo software can be used to manage and monitor all GigaCore switches in a network at the same time.
  2. Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE, Greeen Ethernet,...) is not available on GigaCore since it interferes with a lot of AV protocols
  3. All GigaCore switches are at least 1Gbps capable. Select models have 10Gbps SFP+ ports which can be helpful for higher-bandwidth trunks.
  4. GigaCore switches have a non-blocking siwtching capacity. Each port can run at full speed in both directions (TX / RX).
  5. GigaCore DSCP / QoS settings are pre-configured to work with Dante. More information about the QoS settings is available here.
  6. IGMP snooping and IGMP querier are enabled in all groups (VLANs) by default. It is easy to select a hierarchy of IGMP querier switches. Araneo recognizes the Dante-related IGMP subscriptions and shows these in the IGMP table:
