Recessed Installation
If you want to recess the front panel surface of the device
from the front edge of the rack, you can adjust the position
of the rack mount brackets to recess the device by 50mm or
100mm, as shown in the illustration below.
NOTE
When you install the brackets, use the same screws that
you just removed.
About Dante
This product features Dante technology as a protocol to
transmit audio signals. Dante is a network protocol
developed by Audinate. It is designed to deliver
multi-channel audio signals at various sampling and bit
rates, as well as device control signals over a Giga-bit
Ethernet (GbE) network. Dante also offers the following
benefits:
• It transmits up to 512 in/512 out, for a total 1024
channels (in theory) of audio over a GbE network.
(The Rio3224-D features 32 in/24 out with a 24/32-bit
resolution. The Rio1608-D features 16 in/8 out with a
24/32-bit resolution.)
• Dante-enabled devices will automatically configure their
network interfaces and find each other on the network.
You can label Dante devices and their audio channels
with names that make sense to you.
• Dante uses high accuracy network synchronization
standards to achieve sample-accurate playback with
extremely low latency and jitter. Five types of latency are
available on the Rio: 0.25 msec, 0.5 msec, 1.0 msec,
2.0 msec, and 5.0 msec.
• Dante supports redundant connections via primary and
secondary networks to defend against unforeseen
difficulties.
• Connecting a computer to Dante network over Ethernet
enables you to directly input or output audio signals
without using any audio interface devices.
By taking advantages of these benefits, you can skip any
complicated procedures to automate connections and
setups of Dante-enabled devices, remotely control I/O
racks or amplifiers from a mixing console, or make
multi-track recordings to a DAW, such as Nuendo, installed
on a computer in the network.

NOTE
Please do not use the EEE function (*) of network switches in
a Dante network.
Although power management should be negotiated
automatically in switches that support EEE, some switches do
not perform the negotiation properly. This may cause EEE to
be enabled in Dante networks when it is not appropriate,
resulting in poor synchronization performance and occasional
dropouts.
Therefore we strongly recommend that:
• If you use managed switches, ensure that they allow EEE to
be disabled. Make sure that EEE is disabled on all ports used
for real-time Dante traffic.
• If you use unmanaged switches, make sure to not use
network switches that support the EEE function, since EEE
operation cannot be disabled in these switches.
* EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) is a technology that reduces switch
power consumption during periods of low network traffic. It is also
known as Green Ethernet and IEEE802.3az.
