Biamp Tesira 2.0

At InfoComm 2014, Biamp Systems will feature Tesira 2.0, the latest version of the company's flagship family of digital signal processor (DSP)-based products. The centerpiece of Tesira 2.0 is TesiraFORTÉ, an all-new series of digital audio processors that extend Audio Video Bridging (AVB) to application-specific settings.

Now shipping, TesiraFORTÉ consists of eight models (four AVB models and four non-AVB models) with fixed input and output configurations, designed to bring greater simplicity and more options to conferencing, telephony, and VoIP environments.

Also shipping is the new Biamp Dante-enabled DAN-1 digital server networking card, which, like its current SCM-1 card does with CobraNet, functions as a gateway interface to support 64x64 channels of Dante networked audio.

In addition, Tesira 2.0 includes new firmware and software that enable two Tesira servers to act as a redundant pair—with the secondary Tesira server providing a mirrored backup to prevent any interruption in service in case of failure in the primary server.

The AVNetwork staff are storytellers focused on the professional audiovisual and technology industry. Their mission is to keep readers up-to-date on the latest AV/IT industry and product news, emerging trends, and inspiring installations.
