AVT Audio Video Technologies By Paul Watson


The new Magic THipPro Telephone Hybrid from AVT is available as ISDN, POTS, and VoIP. It can cater for up to 16 callers via its 10 audio lines, plus two handset/headset interfaces for Pretalk. Users can also extend the ISDN/POTS version of the product to a VoIP system via a software upgrade. Up to 20 simultaneous PC workplaces can be installed with the Magic THipPro LAN and the Magic THipPro Screener Software; the system can be shared between several studios and individual caller and audio lines can be assigned to each studio. In addition, AVT is presenting several new features for all its Magic Telephone Hybrids from the 2-line system MagicTH2plus to the biggest system,


Hanging on the telephone: The new Magic THipPro Telephone Hybrid from AVT


MagicTHipPro. With the Pretalk Streaming Upgrade, Pretalk workplaces can be established whose audio signals are transmitted via LAN: the user works with a USB Headset that is connected to the corresponding PC; and on the PC, the control software of the telephone hybrid in use is installed. According to AVT, this is


extremely advantageous if additional audio lines are required or if the Pretalk workplace is located far away from the telephone hybrid. Another advantage, the company says, is the flexible assignment of a Pretalk workplace, as users only need to connect their PC to the corresponding telephone hybrid via LAN. 8.E91

Has IBC come at a good time for the electronic media industry? Why? With so many fast-paced changes in technology, companies have to consider their investments wisely. That’s often a balancing act. At G&D, we know how to manage change to gain a good ROI whilst providing highly sophisticated KVM systems. IBC is the ideal platform for us to demonstrate our expertise and enhance our experience by listening to the needs of our clients.


What do you think are the key developments in, or threats to, your market sector at the current time? As the proverb says, ‘there is nothing permanent except change’. That applies especially to the broadcast industry and why we believe the key


developments in the market are modularity and flexibility. With our new ControlCenter-Digital, the market now has a KVM product that provides adaptability and flexibility in a wide range of environments.


Why should delegates visit your stand at IBC? The new ControlCenter Digital modular KVM matrix switch allows users to operate thousands of computers over


hundreds of simultaneous consoles consisting of just keyboard, monitor and mouse. Through fibre optics, users and computers can be placed up to 10,000m apart from each other, eliminating computers from the control room. With the system’s modularity, all parts of the matrix can be replaced and G&D’s established DVICenter systems and VGA and DisplayPort modules easily integrated. 4.B60
