Z/IPStream R/1 combines audio processing with MP3 and AAC encoding in one convenient single-rack unit, along with dual-stream encoding for simultaneous output of high and low bitrate streams, or of different encoding methods (such as MP3 and AAC). The audio processing section, featuring Omnia pre-processing tailored to selected output bitrates, is comprised of wideband AGC, a 3-band compressor-limiter, EQ, low-pass filter, and a precision look-ahead final limiter. The encoding section supports MPEG Layer III, AAC-LC, HE-AAC, and HE-AAC v2 formats, as well as Adobe RTMP and RTP streams (including RTP multicast).
Processed, encoded audio is then fed to your streaming replication service; Z/IPStream works with all popular streaming distribution platforms such as ICEcast, SHOUTcast v1 & v2, Wowza, Live365, LimeLight, and Akamai servers. Streams can also be tagged with “Now Playing” information received from automation systems. Z/IPStream R/1 is fully managed and configured remotely with an HTML5 web browser. Analog and Livewire I/O are standard. Auto-ranging power supply, 90 – 132 / 187 – 264 VAC, 50Hz/60Hz. 100 Watts. Rackmount, 1RU.+ Formerly Telos ProSTREAM.
Audio pre-processing, stream encoding and delivery to remote replication server, all in a professional 1RU appliance.
Pro-grade 24-bit A/D converter for studio-reference quality audio.
Choice of MP3 or AAC-LC, HE-AAC, HE-AAC v2 stream coding, with output bit rates from 16 kbps to 320 kbps (dependent upon active codec).
Omnia audio processing includes wideband AGC, 3-band compressor/limiter, EQ, low-pass filter and precision look-ahead final limiter.
Metadata support for all popular playout platforms allows streams to be dynamically tagged with “now-playing” information from automation systems.
Studio-grade analog and Livewire IP-Audio I/O, with separate LAN & WAN Ethernet ports.
Directly supports ICEcast, SHOUTcast, SHOUTcast v2, Adobe Flash Media Server as well as Adobe RTMP, RTP streams (including RTP multicast), as well as LimeLight, Akamai and other popular streaming servers.
Dual encoder support can be used to provide high and low bitrate streams, or MP3 and AAC at the same time.
Can accept metadata over TCP/IP, UDP, or RS-232 (using USB to RS232 adapter).
HTML5 web user interface for remote configuration and management from computers and mobile devices.
