Overview
IQOYA X/LINK-ST
IQOYA X/LINK-ST is a 1U rack IP audio codec designed for live remote broadcasting and program distribution over IP. It is a perfect fit for delivering a stereo source (or two mono sources) over IP networks for STL, SSL links, DVB audio, WEB radio and also for full-duplex live remote broadcasts. It can be used in legacy analog or AES/EBU audio infrastructures, as well as in full-IP audio infrastructures (AES67, Ravenna, Livewire), making it a perfect investment for the migration to IP audio. Like all the IQOYA products, X/LINK-ST is based on Fluid IP, the Digigram technology for reliable and resilient audio transmission over all types of IP networks including inexpensive unmanaged IP networks. Based on a low consumption, fanless and powerful hardware platform, IQOYA X/LINK-ST is designed for 24/7/365 use.
Features
Total separation of IP traffics
Two redundant internal power supply units
2 channels of live remote broadcasting via SIP and symmetric RTP
Multiformat encoding and multiprotocol streaming for audio programs distribution
