Broadcasting companies require communications links between studios and remote transmission facilities. Today, most broadcasters rely on telco circuits because they offer commercial quality voice transmission. However, costly circuits do not have enough capacity to support the higher bandwidth requirements of HD radio and TV, nor are these circuits reliable in many areas, resulting in audio drop-outs.
Another issue facing broadcasting companies is the limited capacity of legacy studio link transmitters, which do not provide a migration path to IP/Ethernet.
These current solutions are expensive, from both a capital and operating expense perspective.
Offering the perfect combination of top performance, high capacity, ease-of-installation and cost-effectiveness, Airmux-200 is a solution designed to meet the bandwidthintensive requirements of broadcasting companies today, and into the future.

Providing average bandwidth rates of 18 Mbps full duplex, Airmux-200 is the only broadband radio that is designed specifically for voice, audio data and video transmission.
Forward Error Correction, six non-overlapping channels and adaptive modulation are features that enable the Airmux-200 to provide stable transmission in the unlicensed spectrum.
RAD's Airmux-200 systems deliver up to 4 E1/T1s and Ethernet at ranges of up to 80 km (50 miles). With these systems in place, broadcasting companies increase network capacity and at the same time reduce costs by eliminating the need to lease telco circuits or deploy expensive legacy transmitters.
