Dante media networking technology developer Audinate to celebrate adoption milestones at ISE 2016

Audinate has announced that 275 manufacturers have now adopted Dante, the industry-leading audio over IP networking solution, and that more than 675 Dante-enabled products are now available worldwide. This represents a dramatic 145% increase in the number of commercially available products since ISE last year.

To celebrate this unprecedented growth, Audinate will bring its popular #DanteEverywhere social media contest to ISE, giving attendees the chance to win a variety of prizes by finding Dante partners exhibiting at the show. To participate, attendees just take photos of the “Dante Spoken Here” signs at any of the over 80 Dante partner booths and post them to Twitter, Facebook or Instagram using the hashtag #DanteEverywhere. Prizes include free Dante T-shirts, Dante Via™ software and Bose QuietComfort® 20 acoustic noise-cancelling headphones. Visitors can get more information and a map of the Dante licensees at the Audinate booth.

Audinate will also preview several upcoming features to its award-winning network management software Dante Controller. The soon-to-be released device lock feature brings additional security and peace of mind by employing a PIN-based system for locking and unlocking devices on a Dante network. Other features in the upcoming release of Dante Controller include Wi-Fi control and extended device filtering to better navigate larger Dante implementations.

Visitors to the booth (6H148) can also experience Dante Via, the recently unveiled software application that makes it possible to network any existing USB, FireWire or Thunderbolt device, and eliminates the need for dedicated hardware endpoints.
