ACC, Level 2, 201C

In-Person Only

**Requirements: **Hands-on portion requires a PC or Apple computer with a USB C port or bring your own dongle with network capabilities. (No Chromes books or Tablets.)

After completing Dante Certification Level 1 (2nd Edition), students can comfortably design, set up and operate a Dante audio/video system on a single network switch. Demonstrations offer attendees a practical feel for Dante's breadth, reach and simplicity.

During Dante Certification Level 1 (2nd Edition), you will learn the basics of using Dante and have the opportunity for hands-on experiments. You’ll learn some simple, practical guidelines for connecting and working with Dante.

For the hands-on portion, if you have never worked with AVoIP before, this will give you a solid understanding of using Dante and setting up a network. The Dante Certification Program takes the practical skills you learn with the hands-on portion and begins to show you why these things work.

This “Live Prep Session” is an abridged version of the classes that are available “on-demand” at https://audinate.com/certify. The focused live session addresses topics most people understand least and will cover the essential skills to set those topics up.

For the best score on the Dante Certification Tests, it is still recommended that students also watch the on-demand classes, which do cover all tested topics. The benefit of the live class is the opportunity to ask questions of the instructors and work with a live system.

The certification tests are taken online. Time is not allocated for the certification tests in this session, though students are welcome to remain after the class to take the test or complete them at another time.

Upon completion, attendees will:

Be able to design, set up and operate a Dante audio/video system on a single network switch.
Gain an improved understanding of fundamentals in digital audio, digital video and networking.
Be able to explain the benefits of a complete networked solution as opposed to point-to-point connections, digital snakes or AVoIP protocols.
Know how to connect devices to a single network switch and get audio sent around a network using Dante Controller.
