Portable IP/3G/ISDN codec
     RoadWarrior XL is a portable audio codec supporting IP, 3G, ISDN and PSTN communication interfaces. RoadWarrior XL is a new full-duplex, dual (Program & talkback) audio codec, based on its predecesor RoadWarrior LC but with more inputs and outputs. Its design, more robust, compact and with a flat surface, prevents from damages on the knobs and make it easier to use.

RoadWarrior XL incorporates 4 mic/line level inputs and 1 line level input for monitoring purposes, named International Sound Input. It comes fitted with 4 headphone outputs, and with a USB interface to connect a 3G modem.


USB Modem (SIM Card not included)

It includes a built-in 4 channel mixer to route and mix both input and output sources. All audio and communication parameters, including input/output signals and levels are remotely configurable, and can be stored in different presets to ease the set up of the unit by non technical stuff.

  Specifications:
    AUDIO
  • Built-in channel mixer for both input and output sources
       --4 Mic/Line inputs with phantom power (48V)
       --4 headphone outputs (1/4" jack connectors)
       --2 line outputs (XLR connectors)
  • Compressor/limiter for Program Channel.
  • Configuration presets to define different conigurations for all or some speciic parameters.
  • Full control (local & remote) of audio levels & I/O signal routing, using cross-point audio matrix.
  • Tx/Rx audio level balance control.

    COMMUNICATIONS
  • IP, 3G/3.5G (optional), PSTN, and ISDN (optional) communications.
  • Ethernet 10/100BaseTX interface: Full industry-standard TCP/UDP/IP connectivity.
    No special networking required. The following protocols are provided:
    • DNS: Domain Name Server.
    • DHCP: IP address auto configuration.
    • RIP2: Internal/Alias IP addresses can be assigned.
    • SNTP: Clock synchronization.
    • SNMP: Remote monitoring over SNMP protocol.
    • HTTP: An embedded Web server allows the user to monitor/configure the unit from a Web Browser. An ActiveX dynamic Web Page offers full real time monitoring.
    • IGMP: This protocol deals with Multicast traffic.
    • ICMP: IP control protocol.
    • SMTP: Simple Mail Transfer Protocol.
    • IP Compatibility: SIP/SDP/RTP accoding to the standard for IP compatibility defined by the N/ACIP project within the EBU group.
  • Audio streaming over 3G/3.5G (UMTS) networks via USB modem (available as option).
  • RoadWarrior XL supports Unicast, Multicast and Multi-Unicast IP audio streaming connections.
  • Built-in 1-BRI ISDN terminal adapter. S/T and U interfaces. Protocols: EISDN, DMS100, NAT1 and AT5ESS.
  • Dual operation over IP and ISDN: Program and Talkback lines.
  • BackUp System: ISDN as a secondary link for IP.
  • CCS Real time Network Analyzer to monitor critical network parameters in real time during the connection.
  • CCS NAT Traversal Streaming Protocol permits router firewall pass-through with zero coniguration.
  • FEC (Forward Error Correction) is supported as per the RFC 2733 standard. Up to 24 different schemes are available, to fit to the desired delay and available bandwidth. · Error Concealment mechanims on Mpeg audio modes are supported to reduce the impact of packet losses. · User Access Control to define different access restrictions in a per user basis. · Configuration presets to define different conigurations for all or some specific parameters.
  • Streaming advance features:
    • Jitter correction buffer. This adjustable buffer avoids audio dropouts compensating for up to 10 seconds of jitter in the IP connection
    • The unit automatically adjusts in synchronisation with the transmitter site rate, to give a constant delay in IP communications
    • The frame size is user configurable, to give full flexibility when adjusting the delay and bandwidth use
    • The codec provides a test tool which allows the user to check the bandwidth, delay and jitter in the IP connection. This information can be used to adjust the streaming parameters and so, to obtain the best-quality in the real-time audio reception
    • Local or remotely (TCP/IP) upgrading of one or several units at once using the same utility, which is also compatible with the Suprima family of codecs. Factory sofware updates can be downloaded

     OPERATION
  • Can be controlled locally from its front panel, or remotely from its Web Page or from CCS Network Management software
  • Automatic detection of the encoding mode and independent encoder/decoder operation
  • Alarm management via SNMP/GPO/email
  • Call facilities: Auto-redial, phone book, call scheduler and log systems
  • Optional battery with charge and status indications. It can be charged on system
  • Serial port to transmit/receive ancillary data along with the audio
  • GPIO port: 2 inputs/outputs. User configurable with multiple functions such as remote contact closures
