International Datacasting STAR-TWO G1 Pro Audio Receiver
Radio network operators need to be sure that the infrastructure investments they make can be relied upon to support their business for many years to come. Our thirty year history in professional radio demonstrates both IDC’s ability to engineer long lasting, reliable audio receiver products, and our proud commitment to this market. Continuing in this long tradition, IDC has designed the STAR-TWO G1 Pro Audio to support our customers' satellite distribution needs well in to the future. The STAR-TWO G1 Pro Audio receiver range is designed specifically for the distribution of audio programming over satellite to radio broadcasting networks.
STAR-TWO G1 Pro Audio is an ultra high reliability, professional satellite receiver designed specifically for radio distribution applications. Based around the latest DVB satellite modulation and MPEG audio compression standards, the STAR-TWO G1 highly integrated, low power, fanless architecture is designed to maximize network uptime.
STAR supports ultra high efficiency, standards-based DVB-S2 as well as DVB-S satellite demodulation. Both MCPC and SCPC delivery modes are supported, down to rates as low as 128 kBaud.
Supporting multiple decoders in one chassis reduces cost for radio networks delivering more than one channel to each transmitter site
IDC has designed the STAR-TWO G1 to be the modern replacement to its market-leading ABR platform, which is still being used to deliver content to tens of thousands of transmitter sites around the world. STAR-TWO G1 updates the ABR’s twenty year old satellite modulation and audio compression technologies with modern, open standard alternatives, while retaining the ABR’s legendary levels of reliability. It also improves on the ABR’s density, offering up to three stereo channels per rack unit instead of one.
