Thank you for purchasing the Radial DiNET DAN-TX2. The DAN-

TX2 is a high-resolution stereo direct box designed to connect

to a Dante™ enabled Ethernet network and seamlessly convert

analog audio to a digital format compatible with Dante. This

makes it ideal for connecting consumer line-level devices such

as laptops, tablets or CD players, or professional balanced line-

level equipment directly to a Dante network for easy routing and

distribution to other devices.

This manual covers the setup and operation of the DAN-TX2

in various applications. Please take a few minutes to read

through and familiarize yourself with the DAN-TX2 features

and functions. If you have any questions that are not covered

in this manual, please consult the FAQ section on our website.

This is where we post the latest updates. If you still do not

nd what you are looking for, feel free to send us an email at

[email protected] and we will do our best to reply in short

order.

OVERVIEW

The DiNET DAN-TX2 is an analog to digital converter that is designed

to take the signal from both consumer and professional line-level audio

sources and transmit them over an existing Dante or AES67-enabled

network.

The DAN-TX2 is equipped with a variety of connection options to make

it easy to connect with any type of audio equipment. The included stereo

3.5mm, RCA and XLR/TRS combo connectors are wired in parallel to

allow for immediate hookup of laptops, tablets, smartphones, consumer

audio devices, broadcast and professional audio equipment without the

need for adapter cables.

The inputs of the DAN-TX2 are processed using high quality 24 bit/96kHz

analog-to-digital converters, providing two channels of Dante digital

outputs over a single Ethernet connector, and allowing easy integration

of analog audio devices with an existing Dante network.

The DAN-TX2 is easy to use, with no setup required on the device itself.

It is completely congured by Dante Controller, which manages digital

audio routing across the Dante network. Dante Controller is a software

application by Audinate™ that allows the user to manage all Dante-

enabled devices across a network. Use Dante Controller to route audio

from the DAN-TX2 to ny number of destinations on the network. Simply

connect the DAN-TX2 to the network and it will automatically appear as

an available transmit device within Dante Controller.

The DAN-TX2 will initially have the name “DiNET-TX2-xxxxxx”, where

the last 6 digits will be the unique media access control address (MAC

address) of your DAN-TX2. As this can be changed to a user-generated

name using Dante Controller, we recommend writing down the MAC

address of your unit in the space provided below for future reference.

FEATURES

1 7 82 3 4 5 6

1. 3.5MM INPUT:Stereo TRS input for use with laptops, tablets and

smartphones. Wired in parallel with the XLR and RCA inputs.

2. PAD: Engages a -18dB input pad for high output line-level sources.

3. TRIM: Adjustable trim control to set input levels, with unity gain at

12 o’clock. Provides -10dB of cut or +10dB of gain at the min/max

settings.

4. LINK: When engaged, the TRIM and PAD controls for Channel-1

become the master controls for stereo operation.

5. SIG/CLIP LEDS: Will illuminate when input signal is present or

clipping is detected on each input channel.

6. SYNC LEDS: Red LED is illuminated when unit is powered. Green

LED will illuminate once connected to an Ethernet network. Flashing

green LED indicates that the DAN-TX2 is in master clock mode,

solid green LED indicates that it is in slave mode.

7. SYS LEDS: Red LED illuminates when power is rst applied, green

LED illuminates once Dante processor becomes active.

8. +15V LED: Will illuminate when the DAN-TX2 is connected to the

included DC power adaptor.

9. POE LED: Will illuminate when the DAN-TX2 is receiving Power

over Ethernet (PoE).

10. POWER: 15VDC connection for use with included Radial power

adapter when PoE is not available.

11. CABLE CLAMP: Used to secure the power supply cable to prevent

accidental disconnection.

12. ETHERNET PORT: Connects to the Dante network using a

standard CAT5e or CAT6 Ethernet cable. This port delivers the

digital audio signal to the network and powers the DAN-TX2 when

Power over Ethernet (PoE) is available.

13. ETHERCON COMPATIBLE CONNECTION: Locking connector

prevents accidental disconnection or damage to RJ45 connectors

when used with Neutrik etherCON cable connector carriers.

14. RCA AUX INPUTS: Provided for connection from CD/DVD players

and other consumer-level playback devices. Wired in parallel with

the XLR/TRS and 3.5mm inputs.

15. XLR/TRS COMBO INPUTS: Balanced inputs for connection to

professional audio playback sources.

16. NON SLIP PAD: Provides electrical & mechanical isolation and

keeps the unit from sliding around.

GETTING STARTED

Before making any connections, always ensure your ampliers or

speakers are either turned down or turned o󰀨 in order to protect sensitive

components from damage due to loud transients that can occur when

plugging in or turning on various components.

POWERING THE DAN-TX2

PoE

Power for the DAN-TX2 can be provided

via Power over Ethernet (PoE) from a PoE-

capable network switch or a separate PoE

injector. Once power is available, the side

panel PoE LED indicator will illuminate and

the DAN-TX2 will be ready to use.

Power Supply

The included 15VDC power supply is provided

for use when PoE is not available. Once you

have connected the DAN-TX2 to the Ethernet

switch, plug in the power supply. The +15VDC

LED will illuminate and the DAN-TX2 will be

ready to use.

ETHERNET CONNECTION

The DAN-TX2 connects to an Ethernet switch using a standard CAT5e

or CAT6 cable. Once the Ethernet switch is connected to a computer

running the Dante Controller software, the DAN-TX2 will appear as an

available transmit device.

As a backup option, the DAN-TX2 is designed to be able to have both

PoE and the 15VDC adaptor connected at the same time. If one fails, the

other will maintain power without interruption.

DAN-TX2 WITH UNBALANCED CONSUMER AUDIO

When using the DAN-TX2 with consumer audio devices, typically either

the RCA connectors or the mini 3.5mm connector will be used, however,

the XLR/TRS inputs can also be employed. The DAN-TX2 will accept

consumer line level signals such as those from a CD/DVD player, laptop,

tablet, or smartphone. The TRIM control can be used to ne tune the level,

and the PAD can be engaged should further attenuation be required.

When connecting to stereo input sources, engage the LINK switch to

allow the TRIM and PAD on Channel-1 to a󰀨ect both left and right signals

equally, providing you with the ability to adjust the levels of both channels

using just one control without altering the stereo balance.

Only one set of inputs should be used at a time, as they will all sum

together to the left and right Dante outputs over Ethernet. To connect

more than one device at a time to the Dante network, use multiple

DAN-TX2 units.

DAN-TX2 WITH PROFESSIONAL LINE-LEVEL EQUIPMENT

The balanced XLR/TRS combo inputs on the DAN-TX2 are designed to

be used with professional audio and broadcast equipment such as mixing

consoles and recording interfaces, with the ability to handle extremely hot

signal levels of up to +28dBu. TRIM controls for each channel have +/-

10dB of gain to accomodate for a wide range of input levels, along with

-18dB pad switches for extremely hot signals. When the TRIM control

is set to 12 o’clock and the PAD is engaged, +18dBu = 0dBFS. Without

the PAD engaged 0dBu = 0dBFS. As with the unbalanced inputs, when

connecting to stereo input sources engage the LINK switch to allow the

PAD and TRIM on Channel-1 to a󰀨ect both inputs equally.

MOUNTING THE DAN-TX2 IN A RACK

The DAN-TX2 can be mounted in standard 19” equipment racks using

the optional SA Series Rack Adaptor kit (Part # R800 9422). This 1 RU

adaptor allows you to mount one or two DAN-TX2 receivers in a single

rack space.

Audio connections for PA system and recording systems use

balanced XLR cables up to 100 meters (300’).
