Cleveland, Ohio (October 29, 2024) - Telos Alliance , global leader in broadcast audio for more than three decades, unveils Telos Alliance xNode2, the next generation of the broadcast industry's most trusted family of AoIP interfaces.

As the successor to the venerable and proven xNode, xNode2 carries on as the ultimate universal translator between external analog, microphone, and AES/EBU devices and Livewire AES67 AoIP networks.

xNode2 retains the same rugged, fanless, and space-efficient half-rack form factor of its predecessor, while its redesigned internal hardware serves as a foundation for meeting ever-evolving industry technical requirements. Among these are dual 1000MB network interfaces for compliance with SMPTE 2022-7 (Seamless Protection Switching of RTP Datagrams), allowing streaming to separate network branches for audio redundancy and automatic failover to the available RTP stream.

Since its introduction at the 2012 NAB Show, customers have welcomed over 37,000 xNodes into their facilities around the world, making it one of the most ubiquitous pieces of gear in modern broadcast history, noted Milos Nemcik, Telos Alliance Program Manager. xNode2 carries forward the reliability, ease-of-use, and compact form factor that our customers love, while providing us with the platform we need to build an AoIP endpoint that will serve their needs for many years to come.

xNode2 boasts a high-resolution, multi-function LCD color front panel display and an improved user interface. A combination of AC and PoE (IEEE 8023at) provides redundant power. Like the original xNode, xNode2 will be offered in five variations: Analog, AES/EBU, Microphone, Mixed-Signal, and GPIO.

xNode2 units are available for order immediately from our global network of Telos Alliance channel partners. The Microphone version of xNode2 will begin shipping at the end of October 2024, followed by AES/EBU, Mixed-Signal, GPIO, and finally, Analog xNode2 models by early December 2024.
