Telos VXs Virtual VoIP System for Radio

Telos VXs Virtual VoIP System for Radio Features

• Includes support for AES67, giving broadcasters added flexibility of integrating VXs into any AES67 network and compatible SMPTE 2110-30 networks, in addition to Livewire networks.
• HTML-5 control via Pathfinder Core PRO.
• SIP call-handling throughout—no internal conversion to analog call handling like some other so-called “VoIP” systems.
• Works directly with hosted VoIP or PBX services, and in conjunction with a PBX may support POTS, T1/E1, and ISDN BRI for maximum flexibility and cost savings.*
• Standards-based SIP interface integrates with all modern VoIP-based PBX systems to allow transfers, line-sharing, caller ID, and common telco services for business and studio phones.
• Standard Ethernet backbone provides a common transport path for both studio audio and telecom needs, resulting in cost savings and simplified studio infrastructure. Connection to hundreds of control devices (software or hardware) is possible.
• Each call receives a dedicated processing path for unmatched clarity and superior conferencing.
• Native Livewire® integration: One connection integrates caller audio, program-on-hold, mix-minus, and logic directly into Axia® AoIP consoles and networks.
• Connect VXs to any radio console or other broadcast equipment using available Telos Alliance AES/EBU, Mixed Signal, and GPIO xNodes. Audio interfaces feature 48 kHz sampling rate and studio-grade 24-bit A/D converters with 256x oversampling.
• Powerful dynamic line management enables instant reallocation of call-in lines to studios requiring increased capacity.
• VSet Call Controllers™ with full-color LCD displays and Telos Status Symbols™ present producers and talent with a rich graphical information display. Each VSet features its own address book and call log.
• The “Drop-in” VSet Call Controller™ modules can directly integrate VXs phone control into your mixing consoles.
• Clear, clean caller audio from fifth-generation Telos Adaptive Telephony technology, including Digital Dynamic EQ, AGC, adjustable caller ducking, and audio dynamics processing by Omnia®.
• Wideband acoustic echo cancellation eliminates open-speaker feedback.
• Support for the G.722 codec enables high-fidelity phone calls from iPhone and Android SIP softphones using a SIP server.

• XScreen call-screening software from Broadcast Bionics, provided at no cost.

*Due to the wide variation in how traditional phone service can be delivered and the complexities involved in converting those services to SIP, we want to talk with you about your system design before you order. Telos has VX System engineers standing by to help you draw up a configuration that will ensure your VX purchase will perform to your expectations when using legacy telephony circuits.

Deployments

Broadcasters can deploy VXs on their servers in the rack room, on shared servers in the centralized data center, or in cloud instances. These deployment options deliver the benefits of virtualization, such as easier facility-wide upgrades, cost-efficiency, and automated deployment without site visits. Broadcasters can scale VXs in size from a single studio to a facility-wide talkshow system to a multi-location system.

The system is built based on your specific needs by combining features as required: Channels, Lines, and Acoustic Echo Canceller instances. These features combine into a license code, which can be active in one VXs instance at a time.

Features are tiered based on quantity to enable economic growth as overall system size increases. VXs features are available as a subscription, which includes the TelosCare PLUS while the subscription is active. VXs features are also available as a one-time buyout, with the TelosCare PLUS included for the first year and optionally renewable yearly after that.

Pre-Sales Configuration

Pre-sales configuration assistance with a Telos engineer is recommended before order placement. It’s free and a great way to ensure the right system components are ordered, with a clear and workable system design. These calls are arranged through your Telos salesperson or dealer and can also include your IT and telecom professionals or vendors.

VXs Specifications

The first step to deploying VXs is ensuring you are using a compliant platform. A machine with the following specs can, at minimum, handle 64 simultaneous calls on-air, on handset, on hold, or any combination of the three:
