USB Interface
USB control over IP allows you to use a USB mouse and/or keyboard to control a remote computer via the
Dante network, this function needs to work together with Dante AV encoder.
How to setup
• On the Dante AV decoder, connect a keyboard to USB 1 and a mouse to USB 2.

OTG port on the Dante AV encoder.
• Open the Windows Device Manager and verify that you see the keyboard and mouse.
• Using Dante Controller, make the following subscriptions (two subscriptions are required, as the USB
