[Dante IN] terminalInputs Dante signals. Connects a LAN cable (RJ45 type). Use an Ethernet cable with CAT5e or higher.[ANALOG IN] terminalФ6.3 mm (1/4″) TS phone unbalanced analog input terminal. The input signal to the [ANALOG IN] terminal is given priority over the input signal connected to the [Dante IN] terminal. When input plugs are connected to both input terminals at the same time, the input signal to the [ANALOG IN] terminal is output from 6301DT.[INPUT SEL] switchSelects the audio channel output from 6301DT when Dante is being input. Selects 1ch only (1), 1ch+2ch (1+2), and 2ch only (2).
