The company supports the ongoing DAB+ deployments in the world with several products and was the responsible system integrator for the first nation-wide DAB rollout in Norway.

Well known products used in different European projects are:

- FlexNsert an SFN capable ETI/ EDI to IP-TS/ASI or EDI converter

- FlexXtract a DVB-S/S2, IP satellite receiver with ETI or EDI output

A new additional product is the DAB-4c high density converter which offers additional options such as PFT Dual streaming, ETI mirroring or an optional integrable DAB tuner. Besides the 1 HU hardware the device is also available for EDI streaming in a virtualized version. The DAB-4c allows to operate DAB in expanded networks including EDI and ETI multiplexers as sources. It’s possible to operate legacy ETI and EDI transmitters in parallel or operating DAB in already existing infrastructures originally not intended for DAB – e.g. DVB-S/S2 or ASI.

Moreover, the IP-4c codec and the Moin Multimedia over IP Network server software give flexibility in network design while DAB deployment in existing infrastructures.

The IP-4c codec and the Moin Multimedia over IP Network server enable the distribution of audio from the studio sites and transfer the audio to the DAB multiplexer headend. Studios are able to use the compact 1 HU IP-4c and the Moin Server can collect hundreds of audio channels to sort and hand them over to the DAB multiplexer.
