WorldCast Systems will tell IBC Show attendees about the expansion of its Ecreso AiO FM transmitter family. Models are now available at 100, 300 and 600 Watts as well as 1 kW.
It also has added an online audio backup supporting Icecast and Shoutcast to the existing backup via offline SD card.
“This means broadcasters can reuse an existing radio broadcast channel to enable the redundancy of its audio program,” it said. “They can play an audio file which is saved on the SD card, or they can recover an Icecast/Shoutcast stream and continue to broadcast the program live from a web radio source.”
The transmitters occupy two rack units and are highlighted for up to 76% efficiency. “When the patented SmartFM technology is activated, they can further reduce their energy consumption by up to 40%.”
The AoI series features an embedded APT IP Decoder. “It directly ingests audio over IP to the digital FM modulator, and is compatible with both SureStream and APTmpX.” The transmitters also include a full RDS encoder and UECP capabilities.
Features include a new RF planar design, swappable power supply and a fan that can be removed from the front. “For remote configuration, monitoring and network management, there is a user-friendly web and mobile GUI, SNMP support and cloud monitoring with Kybio, another WorldCast software product.”
Ecreso transmitters carry a 10-year warranty.
