Using the Focusrite RedNet AM2 is quite straightforward. First, connect it to your Dante audio - over - IP network. You can use PoE (Power over Ethernet) by plugging an Ethernet cable into the PoE port. If you prefer, you can also use the DC 12V barrel input connector with the provided 12V 1.2A DC power supply. For audio output, connect your headphones to the 1/4' stereo jack on the front panel. You can adjust the headphone volume using the control pots. If you want to connect external audio equipment, use the XLR outputs on the rear panel. You can control the line - out level and mute it with the available switches. When it comes to placement, you can use the threaded mic stand boss to mount the device on a mic stand, which is great for on - desk setups or when performers need easy access. Some things to keep in mind: Make sure the network you're using is stable for the best audio performance. Don't expose the device to extreme temperatures; it's designed to work up to 50 degrees Celsius. For maintenance, keep the device clean. You can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe it. Avoid getting any liquid on it. If you have any issues, refer to the user manual that comes with the package.
