Level 1 Quiz C: Dante Cert Practice Quiz- Ports & Connections

What does it mean when a Dante device is in switched mode?

• The device is powered off

• The two external ports and the internal Dante connection are all linked through an internal network switch

• The two external ports are independent of each other

• The device is in standby mode

What is another term for switched mode in Dante devices?

• Star topology mode

• Redundant mode

• Daisy chain mode

• Control port mode

In a daisy chain topology, how are the devices connected?

• One after the other

• All directly into a network switch

• In a star configuration

• Through a redundant network

What is the purpose of a redundant mode in Dante devices?

• To operate two networks so that the system can survive a cable or a switch failure

• To adjust settings on a beamforming mic

• To connect devices without requiring network switches

• To control a DSP remotely

What is the best practice for plugging in network endpoints in a star topology?

• Start those on the last port and work their way back

• Plug anything in anywhere on the switch

• Start those on the second port and move down from there

• Start those on Port 1 and move up from there

What is the purpose of a control port on some Dante devices?

• To adjust settings on a beamforming mic

• To operate two networks for redundancy

• To connect devices in a daisy chain

• To program or control a DSP remotely

How can the IP address for the manufacturer's control port be set?

• By following the instructions in the device's manual

• By default, it is automatically set

• By using a separate software tool

• By contacting customer support

What is the purpose of the redundant mode in Dante devices?

• To adjust settings on a beamforming mic

• To control a DSP remotely

• To connect devices without requiring network switches

• To operate two networks so that the system can survive a cable or a switch failure

What is the default mode for Dante devices with two ports?

• Switched or daisy chain mode

• Control port mode

• Redundant mode

• Star topology mode

What is the purpose of a star topology in Dante devices?

• To operate two networks for redundancy

• To connect everything to a network switch

• To adjust settings on a beamforming mic

• To chain devices one after the other
