1. Introduction

Easy deployment background music system

The IP Audiocast Terminal from LevelOne (IAT-1000) is an ideal component to a flexible and powerful audio network covering a wide area. Old technology that uses regular twisted pair wiring is cumbersome and difficult to deploy. By using Cat.5 infrastructure that is already in place in many building, LevelOne’s IP Audiocast Terminals are cost-effective solutions to help you build your large scale audio network

Powerful Broadcast Streaming Manager

Managing your audio network has never been easier. Using LevelOne’s IP Audiocast Manager (software) together with the IP Audiocast Terminals (hardware) provides a robust audio solution. The IP Audiocast Manager uses broadcast streaming technology to efficiently send the audio signals to each IAT-1000 terminal on the network. As a result, every IAT-1000 terminal efficiently receives any MP3, WAV, playlist (M3U), or live announcement that is streamed over the Ethernet network. In addition, each zone can be scheduled to receive an audio signal that is different from the others. This provides administrators with ultimate flexibility in streaming audio to different zones of the building.
