Easy Dante Setup

Automatic optimization for Dante — Just Connect

Just connect to optimize for Dante; no advanced IT knowledge required.

Simply connect Yamaha audio devices to a factory default Yamaha network switch to automatically optimize the settings for Dante. Settings required for Dante will be applied automatically, including QoS, IGMP Snooping, and disabling Flow Control and Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE), making building a stable and reliable audio network easy.

Notes:

- The Yamaha switch must be in its factory default state.

- The switch and connected audio devices must be supported models and firmware versions.

  • Yamaha Switch connected to Yamaha audio devices with automatic Dante settings optimization of the switch.

Not optimized automatically (manual setup)

Automatic optimization is not available for unsupported setups; however, unsupported configurations can still be easily optimized for Dante manually by following the steps below.

Case 1: Switch Firmware is Outdated:

Update the Switch Firmware to the Latest Version

Download the latest firmware for the switch.

Launch the Yamaha LAN Monitor switch configuration and management tool, connect to the switch, and click the Firmware Update button to update.

After updating the firmware, try Automatic Dante Optimization (described above) again.

Note: Using the latest firmware is recommended, as it includes new features and bug fixes.

Case 2: The Switch Is Not in its Factory Default State:

Easy to optimize for Dante manually

Using the switch configuration and management tool Yamaha LAN Monitor, access the switch’s Web GUI and select “Dante” in the ProAV Profile settings.

This applies the Dante settings automatically, including QoS, IGMP Snooping, disabling Flow Control, and disabling Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE).

*When a switch has already been configured and is not in its factory default state, Yamaha audio devices will not be automatically optimized on connection.

  • Step 1. Launch Yamaha LAN Monitor > Click “Web GUI”

Choosing the right switch for your needs

1. Check the number of devices you will be connecting

Example: You want to connect eight devices.

2. Check whether any of these devices support  PoE

If you will not be using PoE devices, go to Step 3

If you will be using PoE devices, total the individual power requirements of each device.

Example: 15 W+15 W+15 W+15 W+15 W+0 W+0 W+0 W = Total 75 W

Example: For eight devices with a total power requirement of 75 W, the SWX2210P-10G (8 PoE ports, max 124 W) is the best fit.

Number of PoE ports Managed switch (Maximum PoE Power Budget)
24 SWX2310P-28GT (370 W)
8 SWR2311P-10G (240 W)
SWX2210P-10G (124 W)

3. If etherCON is not required, select from the list below.

Example: To connect eight devices, the SWR2310-10G would be the best choice.

Number of Downlink ports Managed switch
24 SWR2310-28GT
16 SWR2310-18GT
8 SWR2310-10G

4. If etherCON is required (*Select from these devices when frequent cable reconnection is expected, such as in temporary installations.)

The SWP2 Series is recommended for multi-switch configurations.

The SWP1 Series is recommended for single-switch configurations.

*SMF and MMF in the model number indicate the type of optical fiber supported. SMF supports up to 10 km, MMF up to 300 m.
