Description
Network EDGE is designed specifically as an interface between high-quality, low-latency studio networks such as WheatNet-IP and low-bandwidth STL connectivity options such as IP wireless radio links.
IP wireless links in the unlicensed 5 or 24 GHz range are priced from a few hundred to several thousand pounds.
Typically located at the studio, the Network EDGE interfaces directly to an IP wireless radio or commercial leased line for point-to-point connectivity between locations. Network EDGE can be used with any of the major IP radio brands currently on the market. When used within the WheatNet-IP system, with a Network EDGE at one end and a BLADE at the other, this opens up a world of possibilities based on BLADE I/O functionality such as silence detection, clip player, logic for automation, etc…
The Network EDGE includes local I/O (two AES and two stereo analogue) and 12 programmable logic ports.
