The Dante-MY16-AUD card uses a single field programmable logic device to offer a full implementation of Dante. The Dante-MY16-AUD is compatible with MY16 slots on all Yamaha mixing consoles, power amplifiers, and DSPs. The card, developed by Audinate, is available worldwide from Yamaha and its distributors.
"We are honoured to be recognised for innovation by EDN. We specifically chose the Xilinx FPGA implementation because it also gave us flexibility in the future to upgrade and enhance our Dante networking solution," said Chris Ware, VP of Engineering at Audinate. "This implementation will allow us to field upgrade customers who wish to support upcoming standards such as AVB".
Dante networking solutions provides ultra-high performance media transport with sample-accurate synchronisation and sub-millisecond latency. Since devices and channels are automatically discovered and easy to program, Dante is the easiest digital networking solution to install and configure. Overall, Dante offers a complete networking solution and provides users a no-hassle, self-configuring digital audio networking experience using standard Internet Protocols over 100Mb and/or Gigabit Ethernet.
