NAB. Radio broadcasts have a renewed momentum in Latin America, but now the migration to new technologies, such as transmission over IP, has been taken advantage of, said Joan Parrilla, VP of Engineering at Barix.
"We've always offered solutions for people who make radio, but certainly radio has a new momentum, but it's a technology that doesn't go away. Although there are advances in the subject of video and new resolutions, but the radio is there and we must bet on technologies that make it more efficient, cheaper and offer a service with lower costs and higher quality, "said the executive during NAB Show 2017.
He added: "In Latin America we have many customers, who through our distributor in the United States, have access to our products, with technical service in Spanish, and there are many radio operators who use our developments to transmit from the studio to the antenna over IP links."
On the launches that the company presented during the exhibition -held in Las Vegas from April 24 to 27-, he said: "We have a couple of new products; one is Redundix, which adds redundant streams for streaming audio. We have an STL application, which until before this was trusted in a single link, because if there is a problem in the network it could affect the quality of the audio. This is how we solve micro-cuts in the network."
