Guide to Integrating Dante Technology in Audio Visual Systems
In the realm of audio-visual (AV) technology, Dante has emerged as a leading solution for networked AV systems. Originally designed for high-quality audio distribution over Ethernet, Dante has now extended its technology to include synchronized audio and video transmission over IP, known as Dante AV.
This evolution allows Dante to support combined audio-video workflows, scalable multi-device deployments, and integration with emerging IP standards. Key points in Dante's evolution include the expansion to Dante AV, the integration with PTZ cameras, and catering to various deployment scenarios.
By broadening its protocol to transmit video streams, Dante now supports fully synchronized audio and video transport over IP networks, suitable for enterprise AV, live events, and broadcast workflows. Leading hardware manufacturers like Bolin have introduced PTZ cameras supporting Dante AV Ultra and AV-H protocols, simplifying production workflows and remote control setups.
Dante AV caters to environments requiring integrated AV systems, from modern broadcast studios and virtual sets to enterprise venues and houses of worship. A concrete example of its capabilities can be seen in the deployment at Grace Community Church. While the technical specifics of this installation are not extensively detailed, it is reasonable to infer that Grace Community Church’s AV system uses Dante AV to integrate audio mixers, cameras, and display systems, enhancing production quality and operational efficiency.
