PHOENIX STUDIO is an IP audiocodec, in a single 1 U rackmounted case, with stereo analogue and digital inputs and outputs and universal power supply (90-250V AC), which has two slots for inserting optional communication modules : POTS, ISDN, X21, V35 and GSM. Indeed the modular approach of the PHOENIX means that future modules can be easily developed depending upon market preferences
The PHOENIX, in addition to the main programme and return, can simultaneously provide a backup (or coordination) channel utilising the optional communication modules.
The PHOENIX has been designed to ensure interoperability with both present and future AEQ and third-party equipment. Therefore it is equipped with a great variety of encoding formats and can easily be upgraded to other formats as the market matures.
