At Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) 2025, Josh Rush, Chief Marketing Officer at Audinate, joined Tim Albright for an exclusive interview, diving deep into the latest innovations and milestones surrounding Dante, the industry-leading AV-over-IP technology.
Audinate, the company behind Dante, shared some impressive numbers that underscore the rapid adoption and growing ecosystem of their platform. With over 500,000 Dante networks, 750,000 users, and over 6 million Dante-enabled devices shipped, the platform continues to dominate the AV industry.
Expanding Beyond Audio: Dante’s Evolution in Video and Control
Originally designed as a networking solution for audio, Dante has expanded into video and control, providing manufacturers and end-users with an interoperable, scalable, and flexible AV-over-IP solution. Audinate’s cloud-based remote monitoring platform was a major highlight, allowing AV professionals to manage Dante networks from anywhere in the world.
“This is a game-changer for integrators and manufacturers,” said Rush. “For those who don’t have the resources to develop a cloud-based solution, our platform fills that gap, providing new levels of control and visibility.”
Integrating with IT Workflows
Understanding that IT professionals and AV managers often seek a unified management experience, Audinate ensures that Dante’s solutions integrate seamlessly with existing enterprise platforms. Through robust APIs and SDKs, organizations can incorporate Dante data into ERP systems, IT dashboards, and other business intelligence tools.
“We don’t aim to be the ‘single pane of glass,’” Rush explained. “Instead, we empower customers with the flexibility to integrate Dante into whatever system they prefer.”
Looking Ahead: What’s Next for Dante in 2025?
When asked about the next year, Rush emphasized the continued growth of AV-over-IP, citing it as one of the industry’s biggest trends. Additionally, he highlighted the launch of Dante’s media encryption solution, which adds an extra layer of security for high-profile AV environments.
“With these advancements, we’re not just growing the Dante ecosystem—we’re enhancing it with new services that benefit manufacturers, integrators, and end-users alike,” Rush concluded.
