QSC SLDAN-128-P – Q-SYS Software-Based Dante 128x128 Channel License (Perpetual)

Product Overview

The QSC SLDAN-128-P is a Q-SYS software-based Dante license that adds 128x128 channels of Dante network audio to a Q-SYS system without additional I/O hardware. This perpetual Dante channel license serves large, high-channel-count installations where many Dante devices share the network, and it activates entirely in software. As part of the Q-SYS ecosystem, software-based Dante delivers AES67-compatible network audio integration that scales with the project.

Product Description

Developed through a co-development effort with Audinate, software-based Dante leverages the open architecture and Intel processing headroom of the Q-SYS OS to extend native audio integration to Dante alongside Q-LAN, AES67, and other edge networks. The SLDAN-128-P enables 128x128 Dante channels with a simple software activation — no network I/O cards required — on a compatible Q-SYS Core such as the Core 510i. For higher channel counts, step up to the SLDAN-256-P.
