Greg Shay, Director of Technology for The Telos Alliance and Axia
Audio, will be a part of the proceedings at the upcoming AES 44th
Conference on Audio Networking (AES.org/conferences/44/),
to be held on the University of California’s San Diego campus November
18 through 20, 2011.
“Telos pioneered audio-over-Ethernet for broadcasting, and we’re the
inventors of Livewire™ IP-Audio networking, so it makes us very happy to
see how enthusiastically broadcasters are embracing AoIP,” says Shay.
“They’ve seen how fast, simple and cost-effective it is to deploy
whole-plant networking, and how efficient networked studios are to
operate and maintain. They’re eager to see what’s next! And we’re glad
to be part of the conversation.”
Shay will take part in Sunday’s panel discussion entitled “Use Cases
for High Performance Audio-over-IP in Broadcast Facilities,” in which
he’ll present information gleaned from Axia’s extensive experience with
real-world applications of AoIP.
“With over 2,500 studios now on the air using Axia Livewire
technology, there’s a rich database of information to be mined,” notes
Shay. “I’m looking forward to sharing some very interesting examples
with AES attendees.”
Shay is also a member of the AES Task Group on Audio-over-IP
Interoperability, a part of the X192 Project (x192.org)
initiated by the AES Standards Committee to develop a high-performance
streaming audio-over-IP interoperability standard. Axia Audio is both a
charter member, and a sponsor of the X192 project.
The Livewire Audio-over-IP standard, developed by Axia parent company
Telos Systems, allows broadcasters to quickly and easily build audio
networks using switched Ethernet to connect a few rooms, or an entire
facility. Livewire networks have a total system capacity of more than
10,000 audio streams, and can carry hundreds of digital stereo channels
(plus machine logic and PAD) over a single CAT-6 cable. Earlier this
year, Axia debuted the Livewire Limitless License, which permits
equipment providers to build Livewire interfaces into an unlimited
number of their devices without per-unit licensing fees. More than 30
broadcast hardware and software companies are now Axia Audio partners,
including Studer, AudioScience, RCS Sound Software and International
Datacasting.
