AJA Video Systems joins the Ravenna community

AJA Video Systems joins the community Ravenna, a partner network designed to promote the Ravenna standard for real-time audio distribution over Internet Protocol (AoIP).

As a result of this collaboration, popular audio embedding/de-embedding products DANTE-12GAM y AND-DANTE-12GAM from AJA are compatible with Ravenna. These AJA solutions facilitate the connection between SDI and AoIP infrastructures and include dual 12G-SDI inputs and outputs, providing up to 32 channels of audio keying and 32 channels of dekeying simultaneously, with a total I/O capacity of 64 channels.

Nick Rashby, president of AJA, highlights that “as the transition to IP accelerates, interoperability is essential for our customers, many of whom work with a combination of SDI and IP tools. Joining the Ravenna community underscores our continued commitment to meeting the needs of customers as they transition to IP by expanding the compatibility of AJA products with the broader AoIP ecosystem. Ravenna is a powerful AoIP option, and now our customers can take advantage of it.”

Andreas Hildebrand, evangelist of Ravenna in Theirs, adds that "as a major manufacturer in the world of broadcast production, we are delighted to welcome AJA to the community. Ravenna is a leading audio over IP networking protocol that is fully natively compatible with AES67 and SMPTE ST 2110. As such, Ravenna's compatibility with certain AJA products will allow seamless interoperability with a wide range of AoIP protocols, which will benefit all professionals who want to get the most out of AoIP.
