Overview
StudioEdge is a high-density endpoint device combining an abundance of audio I/O with a dedicated five-port AoIP network switch with PoE in a single fanless 2RU rack-mounted package.
StudioEdge provides four selectable mic/line inputs, eight dedicated line inputs and outputs, and three digital inputs and outputs that are user-configurable as AES/EBU, S/PDIF, and USB Audio, which eliminates the need for an IP driver for stereo applications. It also includes two headphone outputs with independent DACs and built-in amplifiers, a built-in audio file player via USB data port, and four GPI/O ports.
A second redundant internal power supply is optionally available.

In Depth
StudioEdge is a high-density endpoint device. Designed as an all-in-one “super node” with a comprehensive and versatile array of inputs and outputs, it perfectly compliments the Telos Alliance xNode family of products. In addition to its generous I/O, StudioEdge includes a dedicated five-port AoIP network switch with PoE, all in a single, 2RU rack-mounted package.
StudioEdge is at home in control rooms of any size, as a compact endpoint in Quasar SR- and XR-equipped studios, or as an ingest station or routing and monitoring solution in TOCs and machine rooms. There are four selectable mic/line inputs, eight dedicated line inputs and outputs, three digital inputs and outputs that are user-configurable as AES/EBU, S/PDIF, and USB Audio, which eliminates the need for an IP driver for stereo applications. Its generous Livewire+ AES67 stream capacity offers thirty-two inputs and thirty-two outputs. An eight-output monitor matrix system provides for flexible monitoring. StudioCore also includes a built-in audio file player via its USB data port and four GPI/O ports.
Its front panel boasts a 5” color IPS LCD touchscreen display that is viewable from any angle. Its UI provides complete local control of routing, I/O, and audio levels. Two dedicated headphone outputs with independent DACs and built-in amplifiers easily and cleanly drive low- and high-impedance headphones. Its fanless design ensures studio-friendly silent operation.
StudioEdge’s easy-to-configure built-in 5-port Ethernet switch with PoE makes connecting to other compatible devices on the AoIP network simple and straightforward.
