Soundcraft Si Dual Port Cat5 Dante Option Card

Soundcraft Si Dual Port Cat5 Dante Option Card

The Soundcraft Si Dual Port Cat5 Dante option card fits into the ViSi Connect expansion slot found on Si series digital consoles, adding native Dante audio networking to the mixing platform. Dante is an industry-standard protocol for transporting multi-channel digital audio over standard Ethernet infrastructure, and this card allows an Si console to send and receive audio directly across a Dante network.

With dual Cat5 ports, the card supports redundant network connections, helping maintain a reliable audio link in demanding live sound and installed environments where network uptime is critical. Once installed, the console can communicate with any other Dante-enabled device on the same network, including stageboxes, amplifiers, and processing equipment from a wide range of manufacturers.

Installation follows the same straightforward process as other ViSi Connect option cards, sliding into the console’s expansion bay without requiring additional external hardware. This makes it a convenient way to extend an existing Si console installation with modern networked audio connectivity as system requirements grow.

For engineers building systems that span multiple rooms, stages, or equipment racks, the Dante option card offers a flexible and widely compatible route to distributing audio without the cabling limitations of point-to-point analogue or legacy digital connections.
