APT Horizon NextGen

Product Description

The WorldCast Horizon NextGen boasts the most complete set of IP features ever included in APT’s extensive range of professional IP codecs and is the first to feature their “SureStream” technology.

SureStream delivers the audio quality and reliability you expect from a T1/E1 link at a fraction of the associated cost, delivering high quality audio over IP transport networks using RTP/UDP and SIP/SDP.

Additionally Horizon NextGen also offers a wide range of algorithms as standard on a solid DSP platform with dual IP ports and redundant power supplies. Despite the high feature density, the WorldCast Horizon NextGen is very competitively priced.

Perfect for STLs and mission-critical applications, the WorldCast Horizon NextGen provides extensive control and monitoring capabilities to manage both your audio, data and network conditions and other equipment located at the transmitter site.
