HotSwap
ACCESS NX Rack is equipped with
HotSwap, a feature that allows users
to back-up dedicated links with a
wireless modem. With HotSwap,
users can select a network that
will only be engaged if the primary
network fails. Fall-over to backup
happens in a fraction of a second,
and fallback is seamless.
Audio Coding
For users with a lot of bandwidth,
ACCESS NX Rack includes Mono
or Stereo Linear PCM mode, an
audio coding format that does not
compress audio. ACCESS NX Rack
also includes FLAC, an encoder that
compresses audio with a lossless
algorithm.
For users with more limited
bandwidth, ACCESS NX Rack
includes AAC and HE-AAC
encoding algorithms as standard.
These algorithms preserve audio
quality while reducing the data
load significantly. For compatibility
with mobile phone or web apps
(like FieldTap), ACCESS NX Rack
includes Opus along with G.722
(a standard for VoIP phones and
codecs).
The chart to the right represents a
sampling of the algorithms available
as well as the corresponding encode
rates, network rates, bandwidth,
and delay.
