The solution gives broadcasters the first truly reliable, cost-reducing way to move program audio -- and all program-associated data -- as a digital composite stereo signal, allowing a seamless migration from legacy
analog connections.
The board also provides ready-to-use PCB pads for common serial and
analog connections. Additionally, the PIC32 has processing power to spare for additional tasks, such as communication, control and audio.
In the past, computers systems were comprised of mainframes with
analog connections to dumb terminals that were merely input/output devices, and telephone networks consisted of central office switching equipment tied by analog copper connections to minimally-functioning rotary telephones.
Including both digital and
analog connections, users can easily connect to different computers and workstations, taking up less desktop space.
Most companies provide
analog Connections, which allow you to connect in areas where digital is not available.
The RT-24V focuses on the small to midsize markets and allows up to four port
analog connections. The unit comes with two FXO ports and two FXS ports for users to connect to PBX or phone and fax machines.
Lucent's DSP1690 chip set supports both ADSL and V.90 (56-Kbps)
analog connections, so it can work in areas where DSL is not yet offered.
The network links field offices with the corporate WAN via
analog connections through IBM's Advantis network and connects larger offices via Cisco routers, Ethernet switches, and fractional T-1 Frame Relay access.
Unfortunately, traditional
analog connections can no longer handle the increased demand for bandwidth, forcing users to rely on new, digital high-speed services.
