** This encoder has reached end of life.  Please contact Digisat for a suitable replacement. **

The Tiernan Professional Series DAC7000 Broadcast Audio Encoder delivers MPEG Layer II encoding for support of legacy ABR networks. The DAC-7000 is a highly integrated digital audio broadcast encoder compatible with the ABR legacy product line of receivers.

Space Segment Bandwidth Savings

The DAC7000 allows operators to save space-segment transmitting narrow-band carriers for each audio stream. By connecting a modem and transmission equipment to a DAC-7000, unlimited audio receivers can be added to complete the network and receive the broadcast.

Industry Standard Encoding

The 7000 series digitally encodes audio and multiplexes data using industry standard ISO/MPEG Layer II. Seven different audio rates allow the network to select between audio quality and transmission costs. User data along with relay/cue signals can be multiplexed into the encoded audio stream allowing for completely automatic operation at remote sites using the ABR202A, 202 or 200.

SCPC Operation

Single Carrier Per Channel (SCPC) support for networks based on the legacy DAC700/400 codec and ABR202/200 receiver is provided with the DAC7000. The DAC7000 can be used to replace the encoding functionality of the DAC700 or as an additional encoder in a DAC700/400 installation. The DAC7000 is compatible with many popular modems including the DMD20 and CM701/601 as well as redundancy switches including the RCS11, CX101, CX801 and AX801.
