3.1. Опис производа

Тхе Соундweb London BLU-103 offers a fixed configuration of 8 analog inputs and 8 analog outputs, a Voice over IP (VoIP) interface, configurable signal processing, AEC processing, and a high bandwidth, fault tolerant digital audio bus. The VoIP port enables the BLU-103 to interface with two VoIP (SIP v2.0 or later) lines. The BLU-103 contains dedicated AEC processing for up to 8 independent AEC algorithms. The AEC algorithm can be applied to signals coming from the local analog inputs or from the digital audio bus. 8 individual AEC references (one per algorithm) allow the user to provide a solution for multiple conferencing spaces using a single device. The BLU-103 and the other members of the Soundweb London family provide the building blocks of the perfectly tailored system solution.
