musicam ccs roadrunner isdn audio codec

RoadRunner, an economical, compact portable ISDN Audio codec and mixer that lets you send and receive the highest quality monaural audio over a single ISDN phone line.

Included in the RoadRunner package is a three-channel audio mixer with two dedicated microphone inputs and a third input switchable between mic and line levels. Two independent headphone circuits are included, with individually adjustable send and receive levels. Balanced return audio as well as unbalanced local and return outputs are provided for direct connections to your audio equipment. The RoadRunner comes standard with an internal ISDN terminal adapter and integrated NT-1 where required. In addition, the RoadRunner can be used with any of the available internal digital interface modules for use with other digital transmission facilities.

Designed for voice-overs, news, sports and other applications where high-fidelity, broadcast quality audio is required, the RoadRunner delivers 20 Hz to 20 kHz audio with greater than 84 dB SNR when 2 ISDN 'B' channels are used. 15 kHz can be achieved when only a single 'B' channel is used. RoadRunner offers G.722, fully compatible MUSCIAM® enhanced Layer 2 and MPEG Layer 3 algorithms, 24, 32 and 48 kHz sampling frequencies, with connect rates from 56 to 128 kb/s.
