Harris Plans Intraplex NetXpress

Harris is promoting what it calls the radio industry’s first managed platform for the transport of audio over IP. The system becomes available early next year.
Intraplex NetXpress, it said, is a networking platform that can send multiple services over an IP connection while allowing an operator to control and monitor the operation from a central area. The company plans to promote it at next month’s IBC convention in Amsterdam.
“Radio broadcasters can transport multiple audio programs in multiple formats, local area network (LAN) data and PBX/PABX telephone communications over a single IP connection,” Harris stated.
“The result is a far more cost- and bandwidth-efficient transport network compared to the expense of using separate dedicated E1/T1 circuits and individual codecs.”
