Soundcraft 5031819.V – Dante Expansion Card for Si Expression 3

The Soundcraft 5031819.V card adds high-density Dante™ connectivity to Si Expression 3 consoles, enabling up to 64 channels of 48 kHz/24-bit digital audio to be transmitted and received in each direction via two redundant Cat5e Ethernet ports. Installed in the ViSi Connect™ D21m slot, it offers plug-and-play integration with any Dante network, simplifying cabling and ensuring signal continuity in critical environments with automatic switching to the secondary link. A DIP switch allows the load to be reduced to 56 channels for compatibility with traditional MADI networks, while link status LEDs facilitate quick diagnostics.

Main features

  • 64 bi-directional Dante™ channels at 48 kHz/24-bit, for mixing or recording with no perceptible latency.
  • Dual Port Cat5e Ethercon with primary and secondary link for automatic redundancy.
  • D21m format for direct insertion into ViSi Connect™ slots on Si consoles.
  • 64 ↔ 56 channel DIP switch for compatibility with legacy MADI systems.
  • Status LEDs indicate active link on each port for immediate diagnostics.
  • Plug-and-play integration into the console's patching section without additional configuration.

User benefits

  • Simplified installation: A single Cat5e cable replaces multiple digital audio lines.
  • High reliability: automatic switching to the secondary link in the event of primary link failure.
  • Scalability: Quickly and cleanly expand console I/O without adding fiber optic hardware.
  • Network flexibility: compatible with any Dante™ device and channel tuning for MADI networks.
  • Space saving: compact D21m format keeps the rack tidy.

Use cases

  • Integration of the Si Expression 3 into Dante™ networks in large AV installations.
  • Redundant audio links on live tours and concerts.
  • Multi-channel distribution to recorders and DAWs for multi-track recording.
  • Broadcast systems and OB vans with high availability requirements.
  • Connecting to third-party stageboxes and Dante™ devices at corporate events.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How many Dante channels does it support? Up to 64 in/64 out at 48 kHz/24-bit.
  • How do you configure redundancy? Connect the second Cat5e port; the card switches automatically.
  • Does it need manual configuration on the console? No; it's automatically detected and patched when you insert it.
  • Can I use 56 channels? Yes; the internal DIP switch switches to 56-channel mode for MADI networks.
