About BSS BLU-103

Experience the pinnacle of audio conferencing technology with the Soundweb London BLU-103 Conferencing Processor, an essential component for professional-grade audio systems. This advanced processor boasts a fixed configuration of 8 high-quality analog inputs and outputs, seamlessly integrating with your existing networked audio setup for crystal-clear sound reproduction.

With its sophisticated Voice over IP (VoIP) interface, the BLU-103 facilitates smooth communication across two VoIP (SIP v2.0 or later) lines, making it an innovative solution for modern conferencing needs. The inclusion of configurable signal processing and dedicated Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC) for up to 8 independent algorithms ensures that your audio remains pristine and free of echoes, which is crucial for professional conferencing environments.

The AEC processing can be tailored to signals originating from both local analog inputs and the expansive digital audio bus, providing flexibility and high performance in a variety of settings. Each of the 8 individual AEC references allows for customized audio handling, enabling a single BLU-103 unit to adeptly manage multiple conferencing spaces.

Automatic Gain Control (AGC) and Noise Cancellation (NC) features are meticulously designed for each AEC algorithm, maintaining optimal microphone levels and eliminating background noise such as projector fans or air conditioning, thus enhancing the overall audio clarity.

This professional-grade processor is equipped with a low-latency, fault-tolerant digital audio bus capable of supporting 48 channels over standard Category 5e cabling, with a reach of up to 100 meters between compatible devices. For extended setups, fiber media converters can be employed to bridge distances exceeding 40 kilometers, offering unparalleled flexibility in system design.

The BLU-103 is fully compatible with the entire Soundweb London family, and when integrated with devices such as the BLU-806, BLU-805, and others, it becomes part of a larger 256 channel digital audio bus, providing extensive scalability for your audio network.

Analog inputs on the BLU-103 feature software-configurable gain in precise 6dB increments up to +48dB per channel, along with software-selectable Phantom Power. Front panel LED indicators provide immediate visual feedback on Phantom Power, Signal Presence, and Clipping for each channel, ensuring easy monitoring without the need for a computer.

The bi-directional locate function within the HiQnet Audio Architect software enhances device identification and system management, while 12 Control Inputs and 6 Logic Outputs allow for seamless integration with GPIO compatible devices.

Included with the BLU-103 is the Soundweb London Interface Kit, a comprehensive resource detailing how Soundweb London systems can be integrated with third-party control systems, further emphasizing the processor's versatility.

Choose the Soundweb London BLU-103 Conferencing Processor for its unparalleled adaptability, professional-grade audio processing, and the reliability of a trusted brand like BSS. It's the cornerstone of a perfectly tailored system solution that meets the sophisticated demands of high-level audio conferencing and processing.
