Agora - H1

H1 is a 1U 19" half-rack hybrid platform designed for multiplexing, transporting and delivering the most common AoIP protocols and audio signals. It provides a multi-task platform to easily build and manage the most sophisticated networks without specific skills in IT environment. H1 can be simultaneously a standalone audio bridge and an AoIP LAN switch enabling the most sophisticated audio network topologies.
It merges in the same "engine" a fully manageable layer 2 / layer 3 switch and a powerful audio matrix Audinate Dante™. A front panel interface and control card, a redundant 100 - 240 V_D 50/60 Hz power supply, and a rear slot that accepts all Auvitran AxC interface cards make this tool is a unified audio network solution. IN a stand-alone application, H1 works as a two-way audio bridge between Audinate Dante and all formats supported by Auvitran AxC interface cards. IN an extensive application, the H1 provides the dual-service functionality of a managed network switch and an audio end-point. Featuring a wide range of interchangeable accessories, the H1 fits all use cases (half-rack, rack, truss clamp). AVS Monitor is the dedicated software that runs on Windows 7 to 10 in 32 and 64 bit versions.
