devices, such as analogue ports
of any matrix intercom system,
analogue telephone circuits, twoway radio gateways and audio
consoles. A maximum of six LINQ
IP interfaces can be linked together
in any two or four-wire combination.
Stephen Sandford, Product
Manager, Clear-Com, said, "ClearCom continues to lead the ﬁeld of
connecting or extending intercom
over IP. LINQ is a simple yet
signiﬁcant development that enables
users to expand their remote
communications quickly and easily."
Wohler Technologies will highlight
its modular iON monitoring platform,
which enables broadcasters to
perform signal monitoring of
baseband and stream-based signals
anytime, in any way, from anywhere.
Empowering users to access, view,
control, and manage a virtually
unlimited range of signals and
associated data remotely from any
Web-enabled PC, Mac, smartphone,
or tablet device, with video and
audio content streamed in real-time,
the highly customisable platform
offers unprecedented scalability.
"As a future-proof solution with
a customisable interface that
accommodates ongoing advances
in media technology, iON bridges
the gap between dedicated
hardware for baseband monitoring
and the new monitoring models of
today and tomorrow," said Craig
Newbury, Vice President Sales at
Wohler. "While current monitoring
solutions are limited to one box,
one location, and one person,
iON lets users move into a world
in which they can work with any
input in a range of applications while
deploying an intuitive monitoring
user interface on multiple devices
used anywhere."
Riedel Communications has
announced the release of the new
RSP-2318 Smartpanel. As the
world's ﬁrst Smartpanel designed to
serve as a powerful multifunctional
user interface, the RSP-2318 offers
features and capabilities that will
enrich the user experience and
change the way broadcasters and
AV professionals communicate,
says the company.
"Our panels have evolved over
the years to incorporate cuttingedge designs with features such as
high-resolution OLED displays and
support for colours and languages,"
said Thomas Riedel, CEO of
Riedel Communications. "Our
Smartpanel represents the logical

next step in communications, as
it gives broadcasters a universal
panel that is capable of performing
multiple functions across multiple
applications."
The feature set of the RSP2318 Smartpanel includes three
high-resolution, sunlight-readable,
multitouch colour displays;
premium-quality stereo audio; a
multilingual character set; and 18
keys in just 1 RU. These features
make Riedel's new Smartpanel a
powerful user interface that can be
further expanded through the use of
apps. Riedel's ﬁrst app for the RSP2318 turns the Smartpanel into an
innovative and smart intercom panel.
"In the same way that smartphones
have far surpassed traditional
mobile phones in enriching the user
experience, the Riedel RSP-2318
Smartpanel will bring broadcast
workﬂows to a whole new level,"
Riedel claim.
