At IBC2018, Clear-Com will highlight E-IPA, a high-density audio-and-intercom-over-IP connection card for the Eclipse HX digital matrix intercom family.
The E-IPA card is natively AES67 compliant and SMPTE2110-30 ready. It provides 64 streams of low-latency and high audio bandwidth connections for linking existing and new IP-based Clear-Com products, including the new FSII IP transceiver (IPT). It is interoperable with other AES-67 compatible Clear-Com products. Clear-Com can deliver up to 256 IP ports in the Eclipse HX-Median and Omega systems. The card was launched at NAB2018 and makes its European debut at IBC2018.
The E-IPA card comes in 16, 32, 48, and 64-port options, and is compatible with Eclipse HX-Delta, Median and Omega systems. Eclipse HX-Delta can support up to three E-IPA cards, while the Median and Omega can carry up to four.
