1.5. Compatibility with other AEQ codecs.

PHOENIX ALIO offers the possibility to connect to other AEQ codecs.

It  is  compatible  with  Phoenix  MERCURY,  STUDIO,  VENUS,  VENUS  V2,  VENUS  V3,
STRATOS and MOBILE.

The  "SmartRTP"  mode  and  OPUS  encoding  algorithm  can  be  used  with  Phoenix  MERCURY,
STUDIO, VENUS, VENUS V2, VENUS V3 and STRATOS updated to firmware version 5.20 or
above.

1.6. Compatibility with third-party codecs.

PHOENIX  ALIO  is  a  portable  IP  audiocodec  compatible  with  EBU-TECH  3326  technical
specification  from  EBU  N/ACIP  workgroup.  This  technical  specification  was  developed  to
guarantee  compatibility  between  equipment  from  different  manufacturers  in  applications  for
professional-quality  audio  contribution  over  IP  networks.  Therefore  it  is  possible  to  connect
PHOENIX  ALIO  with  any  codec  from  other  manufacturer  over  IP  provided  that  this  unit  has
been developed according to N/ACIP (please check third-party codecs technical specifications).
