Broadcast infrastructure is changing; while many broadcasters still use proprietary systems, the ability to link up with third party IP equipment using AES67/SMPTE 2010-30 is bringing broadcast communities together.
Calrec’s IP Gateway enables Hydra2 equipment to talk to third party IP equipment over these protocols, so Calrec customers can upgrade to IP using their existing equipment. Calrec’s ImPulse core can be added to existing Calrec control surfaces, and the flexible Type R core can be used many ways.
Using the Gateway, all Calrec equipment can sit on an IP network, a proprietary Hydra2 network, or a combination of the two.
