Description
The Axia AES/EBU xNode is a second-generation AoIP interface that brings 4 AES/EBU inputs and 4 outputs (splittable to mono) onto your Axia network. It’s fully AES67-compliant and includes redundant power (AC + PoE) and dual network ports with automatic switching for always-on reliability.
Key Features
- 4 AES/EBU inputs and 4 outputs (splittable to mono)
- AES67 / Livewire+ compliant
- Redundant AC and PoE power
- Dual-redundant network interfaces with auto-switching
- Compact 9.5″ × 11″ chassis
Technical Details
And xNodes are so simple to set up, they nearly configure themselves.</p> <p>Feature-Rich</p> <p>xNodes are loaded with features designed to ensure the uptime of your network. Dual Ethernet ports can provide redundant connections to separate network segments. Built-in Syslog servers with a configurable event filter and SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) support let you stay fully informed, should an xNode’s power or connection status change.</p> <p> Matrix Mixer</p> <p>The xNode Matrix Mixer feature is one of the most flexible and capable virtual mixers available. It lets users mix physical inputs (like mics and playback devices) with digital network sources (like stream inputs) to a single output. With the xNode Matrix Mixer feature, broadcasters can bypass the studio console during automated dayparts and send on-air mixes straight to the transmitter thus simplifying audio workflows. This one-of-a-kind solution offers the power and flexibility of a big studio mixer switching system in a compact ½ RU device!</p> <p> Convenient</p> <p>xNodes are convenient, too. For example, an xNode in the rack room can collect audio from network feeds, codecs and other shared sources for system-wide use while providing handy outputs for audio processors and other terminal-room gear.</p> <p> Superior Audio Quality</p> <p>xNodes provide audio quality superior to any other AoIP interface. <p> Cost-Efficient</p> <p>xNodes are versatile and cost-efficient. Since they’re half the size of other AoIP interfaces, they cost less. And you can mix-and-match I/O as needed.</p> <p>Easy to Deploy</p> <p>When you connect an xNode to your network, it automatically prompts you to give it an ID via the front-panel controls. Then, it derives a unique static IP address, and even gives names to its sources and outputs (which you can edit later, from the comfort of your computer). All you have to do is connect devices to the inputs, and it advertises that its audio sources are available for use, allowing any users access to them.</p> <p>Power-Efficient & Fanless</p> Or, mount them to walls, ceilings, or under countertops, with an optional surface-mount kit.</p>
