SXP118

Dante

SXP118 can be fed via a Dante feed on an Ethernet network. Hundreds of Dante-enabled products are available, enabling you to mix
devices from multiple manufacturers.
Dante does away with heavy, expensive analogue or multicore cabling, replacing it with low-cost, easily-available CAT5e, CAT6, or fibre
optic cable for a simple, lightweight and economical solution. Dante integrates media and control for your entire system over a single,
standard IP network.
Dante systems can easily scale from a simple pairing of a console to a computer, to large capacity networks running thousands of audio
channels. Because Dante uses logical routes instead of physical point-to-point connections, the network can be expanded and reconfigured
at any time with just a few mouse clicks.
Since audio is transmitted digitally, you don't have to worry about the common analogue challenges of interference from other electrical
equipment, crosstalk between cables, or signal degradation over long cable runs.
Signal routing and system configuration with Dante Controller can be fast, simple. Setting up a Dante network is typically just a matter of
plugging devices into an Ethernet switch and connecting a computer to the network. All Dante devices are automatically discovered and
displayed in Dante Controller
With Dante Controller you can easily edit device names and channel labels, control sample rates, and set device latencies. Once the
network is configured, the computer running Dante Controller can be removed from the network, and reconnected only if changes are
required or system monitoring is desired. Signal routing and other system settings are stored safely in the Dante devices themselves, so
they are automatically restored if a device is power-cycled.
Real-time information about the health of your network is essential for a proper understanding of its performance. Audinate's diagnostic
tools provide visibility into the network health status through features such as device latency monitoring, active clock health monitoring,
packet error reporting and bandwidth usage statistics.

VU-NET

SXP118 may be controlled using Martin Audio's VU-NET software application. VU-NET is Martin Audio's proprietary application for control
of monitoring of network controlled powered products. Introduced as the control platform for MLA, MLA Compact and MLA Mini, a number
of products have been added to Martin Audio's portfolio that can be incorporated into a single project and configured using VU-NET.
SXP118 subwoofers in combination with the CDD-LIVE Series are fully integrated into the platform.
