Audemat FMB80 RDS Enc.
Product Description
A world leader in RDS, Audemat is a pioneer in this technology and has played an active role in the RDS forum since inception. Audemat RDS encoders are used on every continent and are one of the most accepted RDS brands throughout the world. With more than 20 years of RDS experience and over 12,000 units sold, you can be assured that Audemat encoders will be the most efficient and dependable RDS solution for your station.
RDS, or Radio Data System, is a defined worldwide standard (IEC 62106) for transmiting information over a 57 kHz FM subcarrier. This system is compatible with radio and car receivers from major manufacturers and can be used with industrial receivers for specific and proprietary applications.
FMB80 RDS encoder is Audemats top seller !!
FMB80 RDS Encoder is fully compliant with the RDS standards, supports all groups and features and offers TCP/IP connectivity.
FMB80 has separate FIFO and cyclical buffers for each type of group for efficient message handling. It can be easily connected to your automation software for automatic display of song titles, artist names and much more on receivers. Configuration and management can be through an embedded web server accessible via an Ethernet port on the unit.
Spectral Clarity
Since the RDS subcarrier is part of your composite signal, it is critical to avoid any noise or interference which could affect the audio quality. In the FMB80 the RDS signal at the output of the encoder is derived entirely from digital data which is applied to a D/A (Digital ⇒ Analogue) converter.
The analogue signal produced by the D/A converter is already modulated at 57kHz, this distinctive feature permits Audemat encoders to operate without the need of a band pass filter on the output of the RDS encoder. The signal and its purity are completely controlled in the digital realm. Only a low pass filter is used to eliminate the sampling frequency residue (around 1MHz) from the RDS signal.
Audemat FMB80 supports RT+ for interactive radio applications and content tagging
