Barix Exstreamer 500
The Barix Exstreamer 500 is a versatile network device that can function either as an audio encoder or decoder for a variety of high quality audio applications.
The Exstreamer 500 is part of a whole range of devices from Barix geared towards professional IP Audio solutions. Four supervised contact closure inputs, four relay outputs, two serial interfaces (RS-232 and RS-485), professional grade, balanced audio inputs and outputs and 24/48V capable power input give the device maximum flexibility for use in professional, high quality applications.
In decoding mode the Exstreamer 500 can play MP3, G.711 and PCM audio files from PC or web server (http) and streams from sources like Shoutcast, Icecast (Internet radio) or RTP servers such as the Instreamer 100 or the Exstreamer 500 in encoding mode. In case of a broken network stream the automatic failover function can switch to another network source or start the playback of audio files stored on external USB flash memory, if both streams are unavailable.
