The broadcast industry is going through huge infrastructure changes, with moves from proprietary infrastructures to IP networks.
But broadcasters don’t have to choose. Most are still using proprietary systems, but that doesn’t mean they can’t benefit from the efficiencies of IP at the same time. Calrec is helping broadcasters leverage existing equipment to benefit from these efficiencies.
There are good reasons to keep proprietary networks – they are intelligent, low latency, trusted, deterministic and discoverable. Meanwhile, IP networks use COTS equipment, are video-friendly and bring the broadcast community together in a shared vision of the future.
Calrec has a range of products that can link a Hydra2 network to an IP network so Calrec equipment can sit on an IP network, or on a proprietary Hydra2 network, or any combination of the two.
Features
Calrec’s H2-IP Gateway provides an interface between a Hydra2 network and an AoIP network. It awards an extra control level that allows audio labels to be passed in both directions between the two networks along with control data.
This gives Hydra2 users the ability to control gain of Calrec AoIP mic inputs, and AoIP users can control gain of Hydra2 mic inputs.
The H2-IP Gateway is SMPTE 2110/AES67-compatible and has built-in support for NMOS discovery and connection management (IS-04 v1.3 and IS-05: v1.1).
The 1U gateway can pass either 256 or 512 channels of audio in each direction and multiple gateways can be used to increase capacity or to connect with multiple networks. For full hardware redundancy, additional units can be deployed as backups.
