Barix’s Instreamer ICE Music-Streaming Solution

Barix’s Instreamer ICE music-streaming solution combines the bandwidth efficiency of AAC+ encoding with streamlined integration, thanks to a built-in Icecast server that supports up to 50 simultaneous listeners. Instreamer ICE is a compact internet radio-in-a-box solution that feeds the signal direct to a local network or an ISP. Suited for temporary live internet radio services from worship, corporate and other specialty broadcasters, the enhanced compression of AAC+ encoding allows end users to deliver the same audio quality as mp3 but at half the bandwidth—or double the audio quality at the same bandwidth. Instreamer ICE is believed to be the first product of its kind to combine an Icecast server with the encoding platform. That removes the need to download and configure an Icecast server on a separate machine, and it enables setup times of fewer than 5 minutes.
