Wheatstone introduces the cutting-edge WheatStream-3 WNIP Network Stream Blade, designed to meet the demanding needs of modern streaming applications. This innovative 1 RU blade unit easily integrates into any streaming setup, offering a reliable solution for handling multiple program streams with ease.
At the heart of the StreamBlade is its advanced five-band AGC, specifically tailored for streaming with RMS density-driven time constants. This technology ensures consistent tonal balance and level uniformity across various music sources. Unlike traditional methods that rely on aggressive compression, this AGC enhances codec performance while preserving high-quality audio.
StreamBlade offers broadcasters the flexibility to stream up to 3 program channels, with each channel capable of delivering 4 individual streams, allowing for a total of 12 destinations. This makes it an ideal solution for a broad range of broadcasting environments, from small local stations to large network operations.
A standout feature of the WheatStream-3 is its standalone functionality. Even without integration into a WheatNet-IP network, it performs at a high level and can be deployed independently, providing broadcasters with versatile options to expand or enhance their existing systems.
With its wide-ranging connectivity options, including support for HLS, Icecast, RTMP, and RTP protocols, StreamBlade is fully cloud-ready and compatible with standard CDN and streaming platforms. This makes it the perfect choice for broadcasters looking to reach a broad audience across a variety of devices.
