Inovonics SOFIA 565 FM Site Streamer Plus/FM Monitor.


The SOFIA 565 provides analog, AES3-digital and AoIP-streaming audio outputs. The Web Interface enables remote tuning, streamed audio, source switching, alarms, and more.
Multiple stations can be sequentially monitored using the programmable StationRotation  feature. The SOFIA 568 includes a built-in BandScanner™, a real-time clock and full SNMP functionality.
The elite SiteStreamer  (‘Plus’) series offers advanced features for the most critical monitoring situations.
The SiteStreamer ™ also delivers important RF and audio signal measurements and dispatches email or text-message alarms for out-of-limits conditions and other reception errors.

Features

  • Fulltime off-air program audio is available simultaneously as L/R-analog, AES3-digital and Dante®-based AES67 AoIP streaming, all with adjustable levels, plus a multi-listener Internet IP stream and front-panel headphone jack.
  • Install the SiteStreamer within the reception contour of your station and monitor off-air analog FM via the Web from anywhere in the world.
  • The SOFIA 565 Internet-listening stream supports up to 10 listeners at once.
  • Front-panel alarms and/or rear-panel ‘tallies’ indicate Audio Loss, Low Signal, RDS Errors, and FM Reception Loss.
  • Easy front-panel setup uses jog-wheel menu navigation and the front-panel readout. The corresponding Web interface offers a detailed presentation and additional options.
  • Gives local and remote readout of all pertinent FM/RDS data.
  • Enhanced alarm logging includes the duration of each alarm, and there is virtually no limit to the number of alarms that can be logged.
  • The built-in BandScanner displays a spectrum plot of the entire FM band (or a user-selected portion).
  • The half-rack package features an OLED hi-res graphic display, wide-range LED level meters and individual alarm LEDs with rear-panel tallies.
  • GPOs may be user-assigned to specific alarm functions.
  • SNMP utility is fully supported.
  • Real-Time Clock has battery backup.
