United States. Utah Scientific's new UTAH-400s, showcased during NAB 2011, process the audio signals built into digital routing switches through a new line of I/O based on FPGA (field programmable gate array) technology that performs signal processing.
This process on the router can deserialize and decode a signal in the data streams of the components without compromising the overall operating security of the router. As a result, audio channels are mixed automatically, without an external or manual intervention device.
Tom Harmon, president and CEO of Utah Scientific, said: "Achieving maximum embedded audio performance requires realistic needs assessment, technology assessment, sound planning and system design. The new signal processing capabilities that have been added to the UTAH-400, taking advantage of the new I/O line, will offer great efficiencies and benefits to businesses and media."
