The DEVA DB94-SFN MPX Decoder is a next-generation compact MPX over IP decoder designed for professional FM broadcasting. Using the dedicated μMPX (MicroMPX) algorithm from Thimeo, it delivers high-quality FM MPX decoding at bitrates starting from 320 kbps while preserving stereo and RDS integrity over narrowband or public IP links. The unit adds full Single Frequency Network support through ultra-precise GPS timing, aligning audio and MPX output with sub-microsecond accuracy across multiple transmitters. This deterministic, GPS-locked timing ensures phase-coherent coverage and reliable long-term synchronisation in complex SFN deployments.
The DEVA DB94-SFN MPX Decoder provides an analog MPX output on BNC with up to +16 dBu level and a digital AES192 MPX output on balanced RJ-45. A DB15 GPS port accepts NMEA 0183 and 1 PPS sync, while the rear panel also includes a Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 port, USB Type A for backup audio, a 12V DC power jack and GPIO via the network interface for monitoring and control.
In daily use, the DEVA DB94-SFN MPX Decoder offers instant visual status via front-panel LEDs and a headphone output for quick audio checks. Engineers configure and supervise the unit through an intuitive web interface or SNMP, with quick-view status pages and protected access to settings. Its combination of precise GPS timing, robust FEC and reliable 24/7 hardware makes it well suited for main transmitters, gap-fillers and SFN sites where continuous, phase-coherent FM MPX delivery is essential.
