Inovonics Broadcast shows how to monitor your radio feeds with features previously only available from equipment priced at nearly three times the cost.

The Inovonics SOFIA 565 FM SiteStreamer provides analog, AES3-digital and AoIP-streaming audio outputs. The Web Interface enables remote tuning, streamed audio, station switching, alarms, and more. Multiple stations can be sequentially monitored using the programmable StationRotation™ feature and the SOFIA 565 includes a built-in BandScanner™, a real-time clock, and full SNMP functionality. The elite SiteStreamer+™ (‘Plus’) series offers advanced features for the most critical monitoring situations, delivers important RF and audio signal measurements, and dispatches email or text-message alarms for out-of-limits conditions and other reception errors.

Inovonics SiteStreamer series also includes the SOFIA 567 AM, and SOFIA 568 for HD Internet streaming

The specifics for the Inovonics SOFIA 565 FM include:
