Riedel Communications has adopted the Ravenna networking implementation of the AES67 standard by partnering with Ravenna technology developer, ALC NetworX. The partnership will accelerate Riedel’s efforts to provide Ravenna-based AES67 interoperability capabilities for its Tango platform.

‘As a standalone technology, the Ravenna framework provides an efficient and flexible solution for audio over IP transport,’ says Riedel Communications CEO, Thomas Riedel. ‘Its full AES67 compliance is an important fact for us and our customers. Riedel has always been dedicated to facilitating versatile and reliable workflows that meet our customers’ unique requirements. By extending our products’ format support to include Ravenna and AES67, we take a key step in delivering the many benefits of standards-based communications and signal-transport solutions.’

‘Riedel is unquestionably one of the world’s premier companies providing communication and media data distribution solutions,’ says Andreas Hildebrand, ALC NetworX Senior Product Manager. ‘Adding Ravenna networking capabilities to their product portfolio is clearly an indicator for the coalescence of the professional broadcast market and the communication systems world. It widens the application range for Ravenna-enabled systems by offering direct IP-based signal interchange between a broad range of professional audio products from a diversity of manufacturers. In addition, I expect the comprehensive experience of the Riedel team to be a highly valued addition to the Ravenna partner community.’
