Broadcast Electronics AMX 1 is a compact 1 kW AM transmitter with silicon-carbide technology, standard MDCL carrier control, IP connectivity and optional Orban audio processing.
Broadcast Electronics AMX 1 – 1 kW AM Transmitter combines silicon-carbide technology with a compact, modular platform for professional AM broadcasting. The 1 kW model extends the AMX family to lower-power installations while retaining its emphasis on serviceability, operational control and energy management. A 5U rackmount chassis reduces the equipment footprint compared with traditional cabinet-style transmitter installations.
The Broadcast Electronics AMX 1 AMX platform uses Broadcast Electronics’ SiCore technology, incorporating silicon-carbide devices in the RF amplifier and modulator. Its Safe Mode protection is designed to place the amplifier into a protected state during severe electrical events, including lightning-related transients and arcing. This protection complements appropriate site grounding and surge management rather than replacing them.
Broadcast Electronics AMX 1 includes modulation-dependent carrier level control as standard. MDCL adjusts carrier power according to programme content, with the AMX platform providing adjustable carrier reduction up to 6 dB. Actual savings depend on programming, settings and operating conditions. The platform supports analogue AM, HD Radio and DRM operation, with external digital signal-generation equipment required for the applicable digital workflow.
Front-access RF modules and power supplies simplify servicing within the AMX architecture. A removable harmonic-filter assembly supports frequency changes when combined with the required replacement filter and calibration. IP connectivity and an HTML5 interface provide remote monitoring and control, while the platform also supports SNMPv3 and traditional parallel remote connections. Optional Orban Inside processing adds integrated AM audio processing and HLS streaming input.
