 Connecting QL series consoles and I/O
devices
Use the Dante connectors on the QL series console and
I/O devices to connect them as follows.
 Setting rotary switches and DIP switches on
the I/O devices
Star network (redundant network)
In a star network, each device is connected to a central
switch. Using a GbE-compatible network switch enables
you to configure a wide-band, large-scale network. We
recommend a network switch that gives you the ability to
control and monitor the network (such as QoS, the
ability to assign priority to data flows - e.g., clock
synchronization or audio transmission on certain data
circuits).
With this topology, it is common to configure a redundant
network so that communication can continue without
affecting the audio even if an unexpected network
problem should occur.
About redundant networks
A redundant network consists of two circuits, a primary
circuit and a secondary circuit. Normally, the network
operates on the primary circuit. However, if the primary
connection is broken, the secondary circuit will
automatically take over communications. Therefore,
using a redundant network with a star topology is better
for increasing communication stability compared to a
daisy chain network.
