AES67 support added to multiple
HARMAN product families to deliver networked AV infrastructure
ISE (Stand #1-F6), AMSTERDAM — HARMAN Professional Solutions, the global leader in audio, video,
lighting and control systems, including networked AV, today announced support
of AES67 across networked audio and video product families. AES67 is a standard
to enable high-performance audio-over-IP streaming interoperability between
various IP-based audio networks.
New Soundweb
London BLU-806DA, BLU-326DA and BLU-DA devices will support both Dante and
AES67 natively and will replace the BLU-806, BLU-326 and BLU-DAN devices
respectively.
The Crown DCi-DA Dante
amplifiers will also support AES67 through a forthcoming firmware update.
In addition to
the new Soundweb London DA processors and Crown DCi-DA amplifiers, new AMX
Networked AV N2000 and N1000 Series Video encoders and decoders will be
released with support for AES67 providing networked audio compatibility with
BSS and Crown products. The model numbers of these encoders and decoders will be
identified by the suffix A, denoting AES67.
“AMX Networked AV
encoders can now stream audio digitally to a Soundweb London system and from
Soundweb London to AMX Networked AV decoders,” said Tom Lureman, Large Venue
Electronics Solutions Manager, HARMAN Professional Solutions. “Since the
Soundweb London DA devices send and receive both AES67 and Dante
simultaneously, the advanced functionality offered by Dante can be retained
between compatible devices, such as HARMAN processors and amplifiers.”
Support of AES67
by HARMAN video, processor and amplifier products brings interoperability with
other AES67 compatible systems and more options to facility upgrades.
A forthcoming
release of HiQnet Audio Architect will include the new Soundweb London devices
and updated firmware for the Crown DCi-DA amplifiers. The same release will
also include a firmware update for the existing Soundweb London BLU-806, BLU-326
and BLU-DAN devices, bringing AES67 functionality to devices already deployed
in the field.
