SAN FRANCISCO - eMusicWire -- Wohler Technologies, a leading manufacturer of video, audio and data monitoring solutions, has released a new line of multi-input 8-channel units that contain several improvements over the existing AMP-S8 series units. These units are available in 1U and 2U configurations with several licensing options.

The new iAM-AUDIO1-8 and AUDIO2-8 units retain 3G-SDI and analog inputs as well as optional AES3 inputs. A Dolby decoding option for both SDI and AES3 is available as are options for MADI, audio over IP and the audio essences of ST-2110 and 2022-6 which were unavailable on the retired AMP1 & 2 S8's, D8's and E8's.

Audio over IP, in either Dante or Ravenna formats, including 2110-30, can be added via an option card. Primary and secondary RJ-45 Ethernet ports on the card enable hitless (redundant) 2022-7 monitoring.
