“With Dante ubiquitous in fixed and mobile facilities of all sizes and types, a dedicated Leader Clock can enhance system performance,” says Gordon Kapes, president of Studio Technologies. “The new Model 5402 and updated Model 5401A are designed to provide optimum performance, flexibility and system integrity. Utilizing a dedicated Leader Clock can help make system deployment and maintenance a much easier task.”
Both the Model 5401A and Model 5402 can serve as the Dante Leader Clock for hundreds of Dante devices that can be simultaneously active on a LAN. Additional resources, including the units’ ability to generate sine-wave audio tones, adds to their range of benefits. Any required configuration can be performed using the webpage interface or by way of the graphics display and controls provided on the front panel. Ethernet connections are made using standard RJ45 jacks and redundant powering is supported by way of AC Mains and 12 volts DC inputs. The units mount in one-space of a standard 19-inch equipment rack.
