Sending Audio From A Shure Device; Receiving Audio From A Device Using A Different Audio Network Protocol; Networking And Dante; Digital Audio Networking - Shure MXA910 Manual

• AES67 cannot operate when the transmit and receive devices both support Dante.
Shure Device Supports:
Dante and AES67
Dante and AES67
Separate Dante and AES67 flows can operate simultaneously. The total number of flows is determined by the maximum flow
limit of the device.

Sending Audio from a Shure Device

All AES67 configuration is managed in Dante Controller software. For more information, refer to the Dante Controller user
guide.
1. Open the Shure transmitting device in Dante Controller.
2. Enable AES67.
3. Reboot the Shure device.
4. Create AES67 flows according to the instructions in the

Receiving Audio from a Device Using a Different Audio Network Protocol

Third-party devices: When the hardware supports SAP, flows are identified in the routing software that the device uses. Oth­
erwise, to receive an AES67 flow, the AES67 session ID and IP address are required.
Shure devices: The transmitting device must support SAP. In Dante Controller, a transmit device (appears as an IP address)
can be routed like any other Dante device.

Networking and Dante

Digital Audio Networking

Dante digital audio is carried over standard Ethernet and operates using standard internet protocols. Dante provides low laten­
cy, tight clock synchronization, and high Quality­of­Service (QoS) to provide reliable audio transport to a variety of Dante de­
vices. Dante audio can coexist safely on the same network as IT and control data, or can be configured to use a dedicated net­
work.

Compatibility with Dante Domain Manager

This device is compatible with Dante Domain Manager software (DDM). DDM is network management software with user au­
thentication, role-based security, and auditing features for Dante networks and Dante-enabled products.
Considerations for Shure devices controlled by DDM:
• When you add Shure devices to a Dante domain, set the local controller access to Read Write. Otherwise, you won't be
able to access to Dante settings, perform a factory reset, or update device firmware.
• If the device and DDM can't communicate over the network for any reason, you won't be able to control Dante settings,
perform a factory reset, or update device firmware. When the connection is reestablished, the device follows the policy set
for it in the Dante domain.
• If Dante device lock is on, DDM is offline, or the configuration of the device is set to Prevent, some device settings are dis­
abled. These include: Dante encryption, MXW association, AD4 Dante browse and Dante cue, and SCM820 linking.
