A simple switch setting is all it takes to optimize SWP1 series network switches for Dante operation, and a dedicated Windows application provides “network visibility” for comprehensive monitoring and control.Yamaha first entered the network device business in 1995, and has grown to hold a significant share of Japan’s small to medium enterprise and SOHO network market. Yamaha gigabit L2 switches that could be linked to Yamaha routers\/firewalls were introduced in 2011, with features that significantly reduced the network setup, maintenance, and management workload.20 years later audio networking has become one of the fastest growing, most highly valued technologies in the live sound and pro audio fields. An expanding range of Dante capable Yamaha products, including the highly regarded CL series digital mixing consoles, continues to lead the way. SWP1 series network switches are a solution the pro audio market has been waiting for, offering an ideal balance of IT and pro audio know-how that only Yamaha can provide.The SWP1 series makes audio network setup, monitoring, and operation easier and more convenient than ever before.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"2168534\" class=\"headingB01\"\u003eDIP Switch Dante Optimization\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"imageDescriptionA04\"\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"pict\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/data.yamaha.jp\/sdb\/series\/image\/others\/raw\/s\/swp1_27188\/F2D5CF4A21C345D6AA96461CD1D95BEC_12083.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"desc\"\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eSimple Dante networks are not difficult to set up and operate, but as network complexity grows the switches used need to be optimized for Dante operation in order to achieve maximum stability. Setting up QoS, IGMP Snooping, and other parameters on an intelligent switch can be a complex task, requiring specialized knowledge that is more the domain of IT technicians than audio engineers. The SWP1 series allows a Dante optimized setup to be recalled by simply flipping one DIP switch.

But the more communication you combine on one network, the greater the chance for interference and problems. The use of virtual VLAN domains to isolate the various types of data is the ideal solution, but this type of setup also requires some IT expertise. The SWP1 series includes three VLAN presets that can be simply selected via a DIP switch.
