The new Redbox RB- VHEDD8, which is a Dolby E Encoder and Embedder, encodes eight channels of audio into two channels of an AES/EBU digital audio stream which is then embedded onto any of the available groups within each of the two video output paths. The encoded Dolby E bitstream is also available via a dedicated output on the rear panel. The new range of Pro Audio Streamers is on display. They


allow audio to be streamed around a building using IP audio and CAT5 cabling infrastructure. There are three professional audio IP streamers in the new range providing encoding and decoding in different formats. The PS-SEND converts an audio input to an IP stream, the PS-PLAY reads an IP stream and outputs to balanced and unbalanced audio line levels and the PS-AMP reads an IP stream and outputs audio to stereo speakers.


The CM-CU21 is a portable commentator unit designed for use in sports-grounds with two fully featured commentator positions and a third guest location that can alternatively be used as a line-level input; the CM-TBU line-powered telephone balance unit which is compatible with all analogue direct exchange lines and provides a line-powered, four-wire communications system to interface with the telephone network and the CM-TLL line powered telephone line listen unit.
