AETA’s class-leading HD Voice technology brings radical improvement to mobile voice broadcasting

 

With the rapid roll-out of HD Voice by telecoms providers around the world (61 networks in 45 countries as of January 2013), an enormous improvement in call quality is available to broadcasters of journalism, sports, and other mobile productions.

AETA is an officially licensed HD Voice vendor and offers the market-leading range of products for broadcasters switching to HD Voice. AETA’s HD Voice solutions are easy to use, offer dramatically improved audio, and reduce operating costs.

 

 

Wireless HD Voice for mobile journalism applications:

 

 

Scoop Fone HD **New for NAB**

 

Scoop Fone HD is a professional mobile phone that offers significant audio quality increase to 7kHz/ HD Voice in 3G / UMTS mobile networks, and integrates 3.1 kHz 2G telephone calls into the broadcast chain (HD Voice is also available on some 2G networks). HD Voice delivers higher quality voice transmissions by extending the frequency of range of traditional or narrowband voice calls (300 Hz to 3400 Hz) out to wideband audio ranges (50 Hz to 7000 Hz). The 7 kHz wideband sound quality allows the full signature character of the reporter’s voice to be heard, leading to greater audience involvement and loyalty. AETA makes this new technology available in a highly portable form for low-cost remotes and immediate on-the-spot broadcasts from reporters.

 

Scoop Fone HD offers broadcasters abilities that have never been available before in this innovative category. Features include:

Ø  One input with three selectable gains with a high pass filter (80Hz 18db/Octave), a limiter and fader, and 48 volts Phantom power (XLR 3 pins).

Ø  Mixing between the microphone input and the line input

Ø  Two headphone jack sockets

 

Scoopy+ with LTE **New for NAB**

 

AETA’s renowned Scoopy+ is the industry’s most complete portable codec, supporting HD Voice (7 kHz) and the LTE standard. LTE provides a significant performance improvement and alternative to congested 3G networks by enabling up to 100 Mbits/s download and 50 Mbits/s upload, with lower latency for better performance during live transmissions, and better coverage in rural areas by using lower frequencies in the 800 MHz band.

 

Internal LTE modules are available in new Scoopy+ units, and the latest firmware for the Scoopy+ supports several LTE external USB sticks, allowing LTE to be used with the different standards in Japan, Europe and the USA. With an external USB stick, LTE capability can easily be added to existing units, and used in conjunction with an internal HD Voice module. For fast switching between mobile network providers, the Scoopy+ can support internal and external mobile network devices in parallel.

 

Using an external USB LTE stick (possible with all existing Scoopy+ units) provides the opportunity for using two different networks. The user can select quickly between the two networks through the Scoopy+ menu. If one network isn’t available or overloaded, the other one can be used.

 

 

Fixed installation HD Voice systems for studio and mobile truck:

 

Scoop Fone R **New for NAB**

Three innovative Scoop Fone HD wireless units combined in a studio or a mobile truck rack allows superior broadcasting quality at the receiving end and completes the Scoop Fone HD line up. Scoop Fone HD’s broadcast specification input and output interfaces with full RF shielding of all audio circuits ensure interference free audio. The digital nature of the system provides complete separation of the send and return circuits — each with its own dedicated audio connection. Remote control is available through an Ethernet interface.
