Overview

Tieline’s revolutionary new ViA portable remote codec sets a new standard in wireless remote broadcasting and will fundamentally change the way you perform live remotes. Use ViA for a diverse range of live remotes, including
dual mono, or stereo program plus separate IFB communications (all full duplex). The ViA’s record and playback functionality lets you stream live, record, and play audio fi les from a single device. Then upload your show as a
podcast within minutes of going off the air! Simply take the codec to the remote site, power it up, and tap a single button to get connected – just like making a phone call. There’s no need for additional outboard gear like mixers, equalizers, compressors, recorders and playback machines – with ViA it is all-in-one and ready to go!

Our mission is to empower you with the technology to go live where no broadcaster has been before, and make it simpler. To achieve this, ViA delivers more IP choices and backup options than ever before. Connect using dual Ethernet ports, the optional dual active SIM LTE module, 2 USB modems, or use the on-board WiFi module to connect over Wi-Fi. Insert an optional or ISDN module and the codec is instantly transformed to connect over alternative network transports. This means you can confi gure primary and backup connections over different network transports as required, or use them as your IFB circuit

 

Features

Stream live audio and view and manage recordings, create playlists of local and imported files, then control playback routing to encoders and analog and digital outputs. Produce & record your own broadcast quality podcasts to removable media or upload your recordings via FTP.


ViA delivers all the flexible transport options you would expect from a professional codec. Select wired or wireless IP options, or choose to connect over ISDN.


ViA comes with a rechargeable Lithium-ion smart battery which delivers superior performance with up-to 6 ½ hours* of broadcast time. Extend battery performance with features such as configurable screen sleep time-out, screen brightness controls, plus automatic low battery power saving measures.


Built-in Wi-Fi and web browser connectivity expands your connection options from access points in hotels, fast food chains, or even a smartphone’s Wi-Fi hotspot. Use the touch screen to add Wi-Fi access points in seconds and stream program audio or your IFB circuit. Plus it’s fully compatible with SmartStream PLUS and Fuse-IP. That’s true flexibility.


ViA supports a variety of pre-tested cellular USB modems out of the box or a factory designed optional Dual Active SIM LTE Modem. Simply insert a modem into a USB port and you’re ready to go live in seconds! Bond data from multiple modems with Fuse-IP, or use four modems with SmartStream PLUS for redundant streaming. Check our website for updates on supported modems.


Use our proprietary Fuse-IP bonding technology to aggregate data from multiple IP transports such as LANs, cellular modems or Wi-Fi, and increase connection bandwidth. This improves connectivity, quality and redundancy.
