Biamp 901.0406 Tesira DAN-1

Product Overview

The Biamp Tesira DAN-1 is a modular Dante networking card that adds up to 64 x 64 channels of networked digital audio to a Tesira SERVER or SERVER-IO device. It is the interface integrators reach for when bridging a Tesira DSP system to a Dante audio network across conference rooms, auditoriums, and multi-building commercial deployments. As an AES67-enabled Dante endpoint, this Tesira Dante networking card exchanges audio with third-party Dante hardware over standard Ethernet. The DAN-1 can be installed at the factory or added in the field.

Product Description

The DAN-1 uses the Audinate Brooklyn II module to transport up to 64 x 64 channels of Dante digital audio into and out of a Tesira system, with up to 32 x 32 simultaneous audio flows. Explicit Dante input and output blocks in Tesira software give the system designer direct control over signal routing between the DSP and the wider Dante network. Because the card is AES67 interoperable, it fits AV system integration projects that mix Dante endpoints with other standards-compliant network audio devices. Dual RJ-45 connectors support primary and secondary network connections. The DAN-1 operates alongside AVB-1 and SCM-1 cards in the same chassis, making Tesira an effective protocol-bridging platform between Dante, AVB, and CobraNet. Integrators use this Tesira Dante interface to extend processed audio to networked amplifiers, endpoints, and recording systems throughout large commercial buildings. System configuration and control are handled over Ethernet, and the card carries Biamp's 5-year warranty. Pair it with the Tesira AVB-1 networking card, or browse the full Biamp collection for compatible Tesira processing hardware.

Key Features

• 64 x 64 Dante Channels — Each DAN-1 transports up to 64 input and 64 output channels of Dante digital audio into and out of a Tesira system.
• AES67 Interoperability — The card operates as an AES67-enabled Dante endpoint for interoperability with other standards-compliant network audio devices.
• Up to 32 x 32 Simultaneous Flows — The Brooklyn II module supports as many as 32 transmit and 32 receive audio flows at the same time.
• Dual RJ-45 Network Ports — Primary and secondary RJ-45 connections support redundant or segregated network paths.
• Software-Defined Routing — Explicit Dante input and output blocks in Tesira software let designers route signals directly within the DSP configuration.
• Multi-Protocol Coexistence — The DAN-1 can be installed alongside AVB-1 and SCM-1 CobraNet cards for simultaneous operation across Dante, AVB, and CobraNet.
• Factory or Field Installation — The card can be ordered pre-installed or added to an existing Tesira SERVER or SERVER-IO in the field.
• 5-Year Warranty — The DAN-1 is covered by Biamp Systems' 5-year warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Tesira devices accept the DAN-1?
The DAN-1 installs in Tesira SERVER and SERVER-IO devices, either at the factory or in the field.

How many audio channels does it support?
It supports up to 64 x 64 channels of Dante audio, with up to 32 x 32 simultaneous audio flows.

Is the DAN-1 AES67 compatible?
Yes. It operates as an AES67-enabled Dante endpoint for interoperability with other AES67 devices.

Can it run alongside AVB or CobraNet cards?
Yes. It can be combined with AVB-1 and SCM-1 CobraNet cards in the same chassis for multi-protocol operation.

How is routing configured?
Routing inside Tesira uses explicit Dante input and output blocks in Tesira software; Audinate Dante Controller manages routing external to the Tesira system.

What cabling does the card use?
Dual RJ-45 connectors support standard Ethernet for primary and secondary network connections.

What warranty applies?
Biamp covers the DAN-1 with a 5-year warranty.
