Telos Infinity: Breaking the Matrix with AES67, Next Generation Intercom

Presenter:
Martin Dyster, The Telos Alliance

Telos Infinity IP Intercom is a complete reimagining of broadcast communications technology developed by the Telos Alliance engineering team that invented AoIP for broadcast in 2003. Infinity replaces outmoded matrix technology with an advanced, distributed fully AES67 compliant network solution that provides superior functionality in a simplified, more elegant form. Being matrix-free allows plug-and-play networked hardware and software devices to be added to the system as part of a planned or ad-hoc change, without ever worrying that you might exceed the number of available ports on a matrix.

Audio over IP: Practical Requirements for Real-World Usability

Presenter:
Brad Price, Audinate - Portland, OR, USA

As professional audio installations become synonymous with IP networks, the industry has been abuzz with discussions of protocols and other necessary transport foundations. In reality, people work with solutions that build on these underlying concepts and provide a plethora of additional functionality that makes audio-over-IP usable in the real world. This presentation explores how coherent solutions enhance the experience of audio networking, and how features beyond transport are crucial to the widespread adoption of the technology by the channel and end users.

The Two Control Layers of Large Media Systems

Presenter:
Jeff Berryman, OCA Alliance

The growth of IP networking technology is giving rise to larger IP projects, in which media networks may interconnect large facilities—campuses, studio complexes, and cities. For such projects, it is important to provide a full range of features, extending from overall asset and workflow management down to detailed control of device operating parameters. This talk offers a two-layer design concept to help cover this range and examines how current standards fit into the picture.
