Hey appreciate the clarity here thanks! So basically gigabit ethernet is at the heart of the studio now, wow. So instead of analogue cables to headphone amps and extra pre-amps, all I do is stick on a Klang quelle hp amp or focusrite XP2 into an ethernet socket in the live room and hand it to the artist? It just routes back into my MTRX and console.... Geez this is expanding my mind, I feel like Rip Van Winkle haha
But what about Avid HD IO, Carbon, Omni - so these aren't Dante equipped, right?
cheers

You are just adding IO over ethernet.
Dante latency is minimal, as low as 250 microseconds per hop.
It won't make any difference whatsoever IMHO unless you are doing something really unusual.
I have dozens of channels expanded on the full fat MTRX over Dante.
The only issue to think about IMHO is compensating for latency using hardware inserts but that is fairly easy to do.
It could be easier though, Avid.
