Wohler Technologies joined the ranks of the RAVENNA Partnership community. NAB saw the unveiling of Wohler’s first RAVENNA/AES67-enabled products such as the iAM-AUDIO monitoring device which offers AES67 decoding.
Craig Newbury, Wohler VP Sales & Marketing, said: “As customers continue to migrate over to IP, the requirement to support technologies such as RAVENNA/AES67 in monitoring solutions, like our new iAM-AUDIO unit, is increasingly useful, particularly while our customers are bridging from more traditional signal formats. With the introduction of AES67, the ease of working with and distributing audio data highlights the importance of ensuring signal quality is still maintained. Using our tools, customers know that they are able to provide highest quality monitoring, metering and decoding of their signals, whatever those signals may be.â€
Andreas Hildebrand, Senior Product Manager of ALC NetworX, said: “AoIP is fast becoming an inevitability in the broadcast/production world, and the AES67 interoperability standard is gaining more and more traction as an efficient gateway to AoIP networks. RAVENNA is not only natively compatible with AES67, but in fact offers a whole lot more, and is particularly suited to demanding applications. It therefore makes complete sense that companies like Wohler who provide solutions to customers who can only work with the very highest quality audio signals would want to offer RAVENNA/AES67 connectivity as part of their comprehensive range of connectivity options. We are delighted to welcome Wohler on board.â€
