❑ About redundant networks
A redundant network is a network consisting of two circuits: a primary circuit and a secondary
circuit. Normally, communication occurs on the primary circuit, but if a problem such as a broken
cable occurs on the primary circuit, communication will automatically switch to the secondary
circuit. By using this type of connection with a star connection, you can construct an environment
that is more resistant to network problems than a daisy-chained network.
In order to communicate with MTX-MRX Editor or a Wireless DCP when operation has
switched to the secondary Dante connection, you must re-connect the computer or Wi-Fi
access point to the secondary Dante network switch.
