Overview

SmartGen Mini Compact RDS/RBDS Encoder with LAN & USB Connectivity
 

Compact, Robust, Reliable and Smart - This is just a small part of all the advantages of our Second Generation RDS/RBDS Encoder SmartGen Mini. The interactive function RT+ for song tagging is fully supported without a compromise. Based on the latest RDS technology, the SmartGen Mini is fully digitally designed for 24/7/365 operation. The SmartGen Mini is the most cost-effective solution for sending of TMC and EWS Services. It supports both European CENELEC and United States NRSC standards and is fully compatible with the latest UECP EBU SPB490 Version 7.05

SmartGen Mini gives dynamic, on-the-fly programming access with its built-in USB, TCP/IP, UDP/IP interfaces. This connectivity permits full integration of RDS/RBDS transmissions with the station’s other networked functions, including message streamings for digital radio and Webcasting. The SmartGen Mini encoder provides a full loop-through interface for connection to your existing broadcast chain. The SmartGen Mini can 'parse' scrolling text, automatically breaking the phrases into word groups.

The SmartGen Mini has all the RDS features that you could possibly need and that at an incredible price.
