Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, compatibility is tied to specific console firmware releases; check the DiGiCo documentation for your console model to ensure compatibility.
No, the card's functionality is intrinsically linked to a DiGiCo platform; it's not a standalone Dante interface.
The redundant ports allow for true failover, automatically switching to the backup port if the primary connection is lost, minimizing downtime during critical moments.
