YAME FM has become the first broadcaster to installa Digigram Iqoya system in Japan.
The new FM radio station in Yame City, has chosen Digigram’s Iqoya *Link technology to provide secure and cost-effective studio-to-transmitter and studio-to-studio transmissions. The community broadcaster operates four transmission sites across the city, and has installed Iqoya *Link units in the master control room, satellite studio and at the transmitting sites, providing robust, high-quality transmission with better failover provision and lower costs than can be achieved with ISDN leased lines.
Iqoya devices and software constitute the elements of a flexible and manageable professional IP audio infrastructure for contribution, delivery and distribution. Iqoya’s resilient technology is complemented by Digigram’s ‘partnership’ approach to customer relationships, which emphasises careful evaluation of the best options and system configurations, thorough testing and collaboration during deployment, and continuing response to customer input for further development and adaptation during the product lifecycle.
‘This is the first significant deployment of Iqoya in Japan, and demonstrates how easy it is for radio broadcasters to switch to a secure IP solution that is compact, energy efficient and easy to manage,’ says Hiroyuki Ishihara, chief officer at Space Creators Alliance, Digigram’s distributor in the region.
YAME FM plays an important role in conveying public information including environmental and earthquake alerts.
