Indianapolis – (June 19, 2006) – Tieline
Technology, a leading provider of high-quality remote
broadcast digital audio codecs, announced today that
its upgraded Commander G3 codec is
the winner of radio’s most prestigious technology
honor, the “Cool Stuff” Award, given by
a panel of engineering judges on behalf of Radio World
newspaper at the recently concluded NAB2006 convention
in Las Vegas.
The Commander G3 codec is used at live events to deliver
broadcast quality audio from remote venues such as sports
stadiums, back to the studio ready for live transmission.
Commander G3 - the first to offer broadcasters six network
options in one audio codec – has been upgraded
to offer broadcasters their choice of high-quality,
low-delay live audio and data transfer over POTS analog
telephone lines, ISDN, BRI links, X.21 digital-leased
lines, GSM wireless, IP, 802.11x and cellular broadband
networks. This selection of network options guarantees
broadcasters a broadcast-quality stable audio link back
to the studio no matter where the remote is located.
Radio World U.S. Editor in Chief Paul J. McLane said
the “Cool Stuff” Award means a product was
selected by a panel of engineers and industry experts
as notable for its design, features, cost efficiency
and performance in serving radio users.
