Quantum 2 ST Product Overview
The Quantum2 ST is an advanced 1U rack-mount IP audio codec, purpose-built to provide reliable, high-quality audio links between broadcasting studios and mobile units.
Designed for stability and performance, the Quantum2 ST delivers consistent IP-based audio streaming with support for one or two stereo audio programmes. It accommodates analogue and digital (AES/EBU) inputs and outputs, along with a wide range of industry-standard compression formats, including OPUS, AAC, and G.722. For distribution, it supports point-to-multipoint transmission (multi-unicast up to 1:10) or unlimited scalability via multicast.
To further streamline workflows, optional Dante or Ravenna/AES67 connectivity enables uncompressed digital audio transmission over a single Ethernet cable, effectively replacing multiple physical audio connections. The unit offers flexible control options, including a built-in web-based graphical interface, front panel display, and the ProdysControlPlus application. In addition, the WEBMONITOR feature allows users to listen to audio remotely via ProdysControlPlus or any standard web browser, ensuring full remote management and simplifying operational oversight.
Quantum2 W Product Overview
The Quantum2 W is a portable, all-in-one, broadcast-grade IP commentary unit designed to deliver high-quality, bidirectional audio, and optional video, between remote locations and the studio.
Combining audio and video encoding, multiple network interfaces for IP bonding and link diversity, a built-in video decoder, and an integrated audio mixer, the Quantum2 W provides a complete, self-contained solution for on-site commentary.
Engineered for flexibility in live production environments, it supports dual-language broadcasts, video return feeds for commentators, and advanced audio routing and control. Compatibility with industry-standard protocols such as AES67 and SIP ensures seamless integration into existing broadcast infrastructures.
The Quantum2 W supports 3 microphone/line inputs and 3 headphone outputs for commentators. Also available is the Quantum2 XL which features 5 microphone/line inputs and 4 headphone outputs for commentators.
Quantum3 U Product Overview
