E1 2MBit Payload Detection

A new option for our line of E1-Switches is the payload detection.

In cases when your network node creates an empty E1 signal on input loss, regular backup switches fail because they will detect a valid frame. The payload detector will check for activity within your frame and switch autonomously on non-activity.

The payload detection is an software option you can order with your HEADROOM Broadcast E1 backup switch. Contact us for more details!

MXTS New Modules!

Two new modules allow multiplexing of audio programs from the internet or DVB Transport Streams into the MXTS program multiplex. Selection is easy by PID or program name.

The IP module even offers transcoding into DVB standard coding MPEG1 LII or AAC (LC, HE V2) in case the internet radio program comes in MP3 or WAV format.
