Abstract: We propose a four-dimensional supersymmetric theory that deconstructs, in a particular limit, the six-dimensional $(2,0)$ theory of type $D_k$. This 4d theory is defined by a necklace quiver with alternating gauge nodes $mathrmO(2k)$ and $mathrmSp(k)$. We test this proposal by comparing the 6d half-BPS index to the Higgs branch Hilbert series of the 4d theory. In the process, we overcome several technical difficulties, such as Hilbert series calculations for non-complete intersections, and the choice of $mathrmO$ versus $mathrmSO$ gauge groups. Consistently, the result matches the Coulomb branch formula for the mirror theory upon reduction to 3d.
