DEVA DB95-RX MPX over IP Decoder APTmpX

DEVA DB95-RX MPX Decoder provides compact FM MPX over IP decoding using APTmpX with low latency, flexible bandwidth and analog or AES192 outputs.

Product overview

The DEVA DB95-RX MPX Decoder is a compact MPX over IP decoder designed for broadcasters needing efficient, transparent FM STL and network distribution. It uses the APTmpX algorithm to reduce bandwidth while maintaining high audio transparency and linearity, with support for uncompressed PCM when lossless transport is required. The DEVA DB95-RX MPX Decoder combines ultra-low-latency DSP processing with high-grade conversion for dependable long-term performance across public or private IP networks. It integrates naturally with FM transmitters and fits within the wider DEVA Broadcast product line for modern MPX distribution.

Key features
