It is now possible to connect your 2wcom devices with Dante regardless whether you already use Dante or are just starting out.<\/p>\n

If you want to connect your 2wcom devices with native Dante devices, please consider using our expansion module Dante card.<\/p>\n

If you do not want to integrate the expansion module, you can also use Dante in the AES67 compatibility mode. The following guide offers a step-by-step instruction to configure your devices to work with other Dante devices in AES67 compatibility mode.<\/p>\n

Please note that you can currently only connect the 2wcom device IP-4c with Dante devices.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
