Features

The   encoder/decoder  

Solidyne   ADA102  

is  a  stand

alone 

streaming

 generator, designed to work as Studio

to Transmitter Link (STL). Encoder works with stereo
audio  signals  turning   it   into   an   MP3  or   PCM  audio
streaming, under different modes (see specifications).

The coded output is an RJ45 connector compatible
with   Ethernet   TCP/IP   networks.   ADA102   has
analogical audio inputs (balanced) and digital AES-3 or
S/PDIF. 

At   the   other   end,   an   ADA102   set   as   DECODER
convert   the   incoming   stream   (from   Internet   or
microwave link 802.11.x) into analogue audio signal or
a   digital  stereo   AES-3   (S/PDIF  compatible),   sent   to
transmitter.

Model ADA102mpx decoder incorporates a third type
of output: Baseband MPX for direct connection to a
broadcasting FM  transmitter.

The unit has  

four relay remotely managed

. At the

encoder,   four  inputs  manages  four  switches  on   the
decoder, and vice versa.

The  

USB port

  lets you connect a pendrive when the

ADA102 works as a decoder. If the incoming streaming
drops, the ADA102 Decoder will start to play audio files
from USB device until the connection restored.

The  

serial   port  

support  "gateway".   From   studios,

using a computer connected to the ADA102 encoder,
you can command a remote device directly connected
to the ADA102 decoder at the transmitter plant, as if
the device was connected directly to the computer on
Studio.

Main features

Can   be   set   as   Encoder   or   Decoder   by
settings, using the WEB Control Panel.

Generates  

MP3   streams

  at   adjustable   bit

rates (VBR) from analogue or digital (AES-3)
sources. Compressed audio is not supported
for full-duplex transmissions.

Generates

 G.711 

(aLaw/uLaw) streams at 8

or   48   KHz   sample   rate   from   an   analogue
source.

Generates 

PCM 

(16 bit) streams from 8 up to

48KHz   sample   rate   from   an   analogue
source.

Supports 

Full-duplex

 for PCM and G.711.

10/100   Mbit   Ethernet   connection   supports
automatic   network   configuration   (BOOTP,
DHCP,   AutoIP   and   IPzator)   as   well   as
manual static IP configuration.

Features  

SonicIP®

  announcing   the   IP

address on power up over the audio outputs.

Control and configuration using  a standard
web browser.

Remote monitoring using SNMP.

Remote controllable using HTTP, TCP and
UDP.

4 inputs to manage 4 switches at the remote
device.

Serial port gateway.

In   half-duplex   the   unit   automatically
recognizes   the   audio   format   of   incoming
streaming. 

Balanced analogue inputs / outputs.

Base band  MPX output for FM (optional).

USB Pen Drive for emergency audio. If the
streaming is lost due to network failure, the
decoder   plays   from   USB   device   until
streaming restores.
