ULTIMO-2/4

ULTIMO-2/4 is an optional module used to extend the communication capabilities of audio devices by enabling bi-directional audio transport such as 2/4 channel inputs and 2/4 channel outputs. It is based on Dante format which is a combination of software, hardware, and network protocols that deliver uncompressed, multi-channel, low-latency digital audio over a standard Ethernet network. It incorporates features such as automatic device discovery, plug and-play networking, user-editable device names, channel labels and software bases audio routing. The ULTIMO-2/4 used a 1000Mbps RJ-45 port for network communication. The Green and Yellow Led on the RJ45 connectors inform about the working status including connection and data transfer.
