SPNConference

Conference Interface, Power Amp, 1RU:
ASPEN Conference Unit

The power and flexibility of the ASPEN family extends into the world of telepresence and audio conferencing with the SPNConference interface. Two Codecs and a telephone line can be bridged into a single conference as seamlessly as local microphones. Multiple units can be used to add additional sites to a conference.

The SPNConference is used with an ASPEN mixer to combine far end audio with a local sound system and integrate the signals into the ASPEN matrix. The far end audio signals participate in the same manner as local microphones connected to the mixer.

An advanced AEC (acoustic echo canceller) works with the patented gain proportional mixing algorithm to provide outstanding audio quality without echo heard at the far ends. Advanced algorithms are used to handle the dynamics of multi-site bridging and an unlimited number of microphones.
