This high-quality device boasts configurable I/O and signal processing capabilities, ensuring seamless integration and optimal performance in a variety of professional audio environments.

The BLU-805 is engineered with Ethernet AVB (Audio Video Bridging) technology, enabling the transmission and reception of up to 64 channels of high-fidelity audio (64 x 64) with low latency. This feature, combined with the unit's fault-tolerant 256-channel digital audio bus, ensures reliable and uninterrupted audio signal flow over standard Category 5e cabling, with the potential to extend connectivity up to 40km using fiber media converters.

Designed with an open architecture, the BLU-805 is fully configurable through the HiQnet London Architect software, offering a user-friendly "drag and drop" interface. This allows for a tailored setup with a rich selection of processing and logic objects to meet the specific demands of any audio system.

The unit's front panel provides clear LED indications for Phantom Power, Sync, Signal Present, and Clip information for each channel, allowing for at-a-glance monitoring without the need for a PC. Additionally, the informative display offers device-specific details such as name, type, firmware version, time, IP address, and subnet mask.

With four input/output card slots, the BLU-805 is adaptable to various I/O configurations. Each slot can house any of the six available I/O cards, including Analog Input, Analog Output, Digital Input, Digital Output, AEC Input, and Telephone Hybrid Cards, each supporting four channels. These cards are designed for precise audio processing, with features like software-configurable gain and selectable Phantom Power for analog inputs, and a variety of clocking options for digital inputs and outputs.

For teleconferencing applications, the AEC Input Cards and Telephone Hybrid Cards provide specialized interfacing and processing capabilities. The BLU-805 also integrates seamlessly with GPIO compatible devices through its 12 Control Inputs and 6 Logic Outputs, further enhancing its versatility.

The Soundweb London Interface Kit, included with the HiQnet London Architect installation, details how the BLU-805 can be integrated with third-party control systems, making it a comprehensive solution for complex audio setups.

Overall, the Soundweb London BLU-805 Networked Signal Processor is an innovative and professional choice for those who demand advanced audio processing and flexible system integration, backed by the trusted expertise of Adorama.
