Pro Audio Streamers
The Pro Audio Streamers are a range of three IP to audio and audio to IP streamers which have professional analogue and digital inputs and outputs. They allow audio to be streamed around a building, wan or lan using IP audio and CAT5 cabling infrastructure. Typical applications include:
- For distribution of audio (teaching aids) and music around a building, such as for passing audio to speakers in a conference/lecture or class room.
- As an internet-based IP music distribution system.
- As a tannoy, paging or IP based public address system in a school or college.
- For in-house audio applications and distribution.
- For streaming internet in schools and colleges.
- For radio, music and teaching channels in class rooms distributed via an IP network.
- For playing audio from a PC, a jukebox application, or from a USB stick.
There are three products in the range providing encoding/decoding and streaming:
The PS-SEND converts an audio input to an IP stream.
The PS-PLAY reads an IP stream and outputs to balanced and unbalanced audio line levels.
The PS-AMP reads an IP stream and outputs audio to stereo speakers.
PS-SEND Audio to IP Streaming Encoder
The PS-SEND is a freestanding audio to IP converter which is also available in a 1U rack-mount as the PS-SENDS. It receives audio from a number of user selectable external stereo sources such as an mp3 player, PC audio output or CD player, including balanced and unbalanced analogue audio, AES/EBU, S/PDIF & TOSlink digital audio. Once an audio source is selected, the unit encodes the audio in real time and sends it to the network as an encoded stream. The audio stream can be distributed over an IP-based network to one or more PS-PLAY or PS-AMP units or other proprietary servers such as those for Icecast or Shoutcast.
PS-PLAY IP to Audio Streaming Decoder
The PS-PLAY is a freestanding IP to audio converter which is also available in a 1U rack-mount as the PS-PLAYS. It takes an IP audio feed and converts it to one of a number of different stereo outputs for connecting to an amplifier or tannoy system: balanced and unbalanced analogue audio, AES/EBU, S/PDIF & TOSlink digital audio outputs.
PS-AMP IP to Speakers Streaming Decoder
The PS-AMP is a freestanding unit which converts an IP audio stream directly to speaker outputs. It is also available in a 1U rack-mount as the PS-AMPS. The PS-AMP has the same feature-set as the PS-PLAY except that there are no individual audio outputs other than the speaker terminals. The PS-AMP uses an integrated 2 x 15W D-class amplifier to deliver audio directly to a pair of connected speakers.
