• Has inputs for all sound sources for IP audio encoding from tuners to record, tape, MD and CD players
  
• Monitors and controls the directly attached equipment
  
• Is easily controlled using your standard web browser (PC, palm, etc.) or IR remote control (Barix accessory)

Beschreibung

The Barix Instreamer 100 is a versatile, network-enabled analog and digital audio-to-Ethernet converter for commercial audio distribution.
Barix Instreamer 100 converts audio from any analog or digital device into high-quality MP3 streams.The audio is encoded in real-time, and the generated audio stream can be distributed, via an IP-based network or the Internet, to one or more receivers or Shoutcast/Icecast-servers.

Barix Instreamer 100 can be easily managed via a web browser interface using PCs, web pads, PDAs or other web-enabled devices. With serial and Ethernet control APIs, open IP-standards, and the MP3 format, the device can also be integrated with other components, controlled by automation systems, or used with Barix’s Exstreamer to create more flexible, more cost-effective distributed audio systems.

With an optional stick-on transmitter, additional IR-enabled devices can be remote controlled via the network connection, enabling users to control their audio sources without being in the same location as the device.

Installation

Connecting the Barix Instreamer 100 to audio equipment is made simple by offering stereo RCA analog inputs as well as optical S/PDIF and coax digital inputs. Installing the Barix Instreamer 100 is fast and simple due to its unique features - SonicIP and IPzator:The device announces its IP address over the audio output after power-up!

The Instreamer 100 supports various control and communication modes. Software developers can easily write audio applications using one of the well-documented Ethernet, serial, or web-based interfaces.
