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
100 mm
standards to achieve sample-accurate playback with
extremely low latency and jitter. Four types of latency are
available on the Rio: 0.25 msec, 0.5 msec, 1.0 msec, and
5.0 msec.
• Dante supports redundant connections via primary and
secondary circuits to defend against unforeseen
difficulties.
• Connecting a Dante-enabled device to a computer 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.
