Patton Relança Codificadores e Decodificadores Dante AV com Codec Colibri a Preços Reduzidos

Novo lançamento da Patton do FiberPlex FPX6000 DanteAV Audio/Video–over–IP Gateway tem o preço mais baixo do mercado, Colibri Codec, e interoperabilidade aprimorada.

FiberPlex™… Comunicações Digitais Seguras!

GAITHERSBURG, Maryland, Aug. 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — A Patton – líder mundial de produtos de Comunicação Unificada, ProAV e transmissão de mídia – lançou uma nova versão de software da série FiberPlex FPX6000 AVoIP Gateway oferecida pela metade do preço.

FiberPlex FPX60000 AVoIP Gateway

Os gateways AVoIP da Patton são fáceis de instalar e usar. O controlador Dante torna o roteamento, o controle e o monitoramento do tráfego de áudio/vídeo tão simples quanto apertar um botão.

Em agosto de 2021, a Patton foi a primeira a adotar e a primeira a comercializar os produtos Dante AV. Agora, a Patton tem o prazer de anunciar que cortou o preço pela metade do seu FPX6000 AVoIP Gateway – além de acrescentar atualizações de software que suportam o mais recente firmware Colibri.

Colibri é o mais novo codec de vídeo da Audinate desenvolvido especificamente para distribuição AV–over–IP. Colibri oferece qualidade visual sem perdas e baixa latência do subquadro. O Patton FPX6000 agora é interoperável com todos os produtos Dante AV Ultra com suporte para codec Colibri, incluindo dispositivos da Bolin, AJA Video, Adtechno, Yuan, Minnray e PTZ Optics.

Interoperabilidade. O FPX6000 também irá interoperar com o Dante Audio dos produtos Dante AV–A e Dante AV–H. Ainda este ano, uma atualização de software da Audinate para Dante AV–H permitirá a transcodificação de vídeo entre Dante AV Ultra e Dante AV–H.

4K. A tecnologia Dante AV integra áudio e vídeo 4K de alta qualidade para transmissão em redes IP de 1 Gbps com latência de praticamente zero. O FPX6000 da Patton suporta 4K60p 4:4:4.

Fácil. Os gateways AVoIP da Patton são fáceis de instalar e usar. O controlador Dante torna o roteamento, o controle e o monitoramento de tráfego de áudio/vídeo e endpoints tão simples quanto apertar um botão. O FPX6000 da Patton também trabalhará com o Dante Studio, o Dante Domain Manager e o Dante Director.

Canais. Os gateways Patton FPX6000 facilitam a inserção de 8 canais de áudio (transmissão ou recepção)– além de um canal de vídeo com criptografia HDCP – em um backbone Ethernet existente. A solução Patton elimina os problemas de desempenho e as dificuldades de gerenciamento anteriormente associados ao áudio/vídeo sobre IP.

Sincronização. Com um único relógio de rede para todo o sistema, a sincronização de áudio e vídeo da Dante elimina problemas de alinhamento, reduzindo a distorção harmônica e o ruído de fase causados pelo jitter. O Dante AV suporta redes mistas de dados de áudio e vídeo, garantindo que a mídia de transmissão tenha largura de banda suficiente – mesmo em uma rede Ethernet gigabit corporativa padrão.

Conexões. Além de fornecer áudio e vídeo de alto desempenho, o FPX6000 oferece um conjunto conveniente e de última geração de opções de conectividade periférica, incluindo USB 2.0 e USB OTG para teclado e mouse, infravermelho para controles remotos – até mesmo sinais seriais para controle PTZ.

Patton bringt Dante AV-Encoder und -Decoder mit Colibri-Codec zu drastisch reduzierten Preisen neu auf den Markt

Pattons Neuerscheinung des FiberPlex FPX6000 DanteAV Audio/Video–over–IP–Gateways bietet den niedrigsten Marktpreis aller Zeiten, den Colibri–Codec und verbesserte Interoperabilität.

FiberPlex™ … Sichere digitale Kommunikation!

GAITHERSBURG, Maryland, Aug. 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Patton – weltweit führender Anbieter von Unified Communications–, ProAV– und Medienübertragungsprodukten – kündigt eine neue Softwareversion für die AVoIP–Gateway–Serie FiberPlex FPX6000 an, die zum halben Preis angeboten wird.

FiberPlex FPX6000 AVoIP–Gateway

Die AVoIP–Gateways von Patton sind einfach zu installieren und zu verwenden. Mit dem Dante–Controller ist das Routing, Steuern und Überwachen des Audio–/Videoverkehrs so einfach wie ein Knopfdruck.

Im August 2021 war Patton der erste Anwender und erste Anbieter von Dante AV–Produkten. Jetzt gibt Patton erfreut bekannt, dass es den Preis für sein FPX6000 AVoIP–Gateway halbiert und gleichzeitig Software–Updates hinzugefügt hat, welche die neueste Colibri–Firmware unterstützen.

Colibri ist der neueste Videocodec von Audinate, der speziell für die AV–over–IP–Verteilung entwickelt wurde. Colibri bietet visuell verlustfreie Qualität und geringe Subframe–Latenz. Der Patton FPX6000 ist jetzt mit jedem Dante AV–Ultra–Produkt kompatibel, das den Colibri–Codec unterstützt, einschließlich Geräten von Bolin, AJA Video, Adtechno, Yuan, Minnray und PTZ Optics.

Interoperabilität. Der FPX6000 ist auch mit Dante Audio der Produkte Dante AV–A und Dante AV–H kompatibel. Später in diesem Jahr wird ein Software–Update von Audinate für Dante AV–H die Videotranskodierung zwischen Dante AV Ultra und Dante AV–H ermöglichen.

4K. Die Dante AV–Technologie integriert hochwertiges Audio und 4K–Video für die Übertragung über 1–Gbit/s–IP–Netzwerke mit praktisch null Latenz. Pattons FPX6000 unterstützt 4K60p 4:4:4.

Einfach. Die AVoIP–Gateways von Patton sind einfach zu installieren und zu verwenden. Mit dem Dante–Controller ist das Routing, Steuern und Überwachen des Audio–/Videoverkehrs und der Endpunkte so einfach wie ein Knopfdruck. Pattons FPX6000 funktioniert auch mit Dante Studio, Dante Domain Manager und Dante Director.

Kanäle. Mit den Patton FPX6000–Gateways können Sie problemlos acht Audiokanäle (Senden oder Empfangen) – plus einen Videokanal mit HDCP–Verschlüsselung – in ein vorhandenes Ethernet–Backbone einfügen. Die Patton–Lösung beseitigt die Leistungsprobleme und Verwaltungsschwierigkeiten, die früher mit Audio/Video–over–IP verbunden waren.

Synchronisiert. Durch die Bereitstellung einer einzigen Netzwerkuhr für das gesamte System beseitigt die Audio– und Videosynchronisierung von Dante Ausrichtungsprobleme und reduziert harmonische Verzerrungen sowie durch Jitter verursachtes Phasenrauschen. Dante AV unterstützt gemischte Audio–Video–Datennetzwerke und stellt gleichzeitig sicher, dass für die Übertragungsmedien ausreichend Bandbreite zur Verfügung steht – sogar in einem standardmäßigen Gigabit–Ethernet–Unternehmensnetzwerk.

Verbindungen. Neben der Bereitstellung von Hochleistungs–Audio und –Video verfügt der FPX6000 über eine Reihe praktischer, hochmoderner Anschlussmöglichkeiten für Peripheriegeräte, darunter USB 2.0 und USB OTG für Tastatur und Maus, Infrarot für Fernbedienungen – und sogar serielle Signale für die PTZ–Steuerung.

Weitere Informationen zum FiberPlex FPX6000 DanteAV Audio/Video–over–IP–Gateway finden Sie unter www.patton.com/fpx6000

GN introduces ReSound Enzo IA: Exceptional speech understanding and all-day battery life – in the world’s smallest rechargeable Super Power hearing aid

BALLERUP, Denmark, Aug. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — GN, a global leader in hearing technology, announced today the launch of ReSound Enzo™ IA, the world's smallest rechargeable Super Power hearing aid,1 representing a huge leap forward in sound quality for people with severe to profound hearing loss.

Understanding speech, especially in noisy environments, is the biggest challenge for Super Power users. ReSound Enzo IA, benefitting from GN’s Organic Hearing philosophy, overcomes this challenge without compromising size or battery life. ReSound Enzo IA allows users with severe to profound hearing loss to access the latest technologies available, including advanced noise management and the world’s best feedback management system.2

“At GN, we've engaged deeply with people facing severe to profound hearing loss to understand what truly makes a difference for them. With ReSound Enzo IA you can have it all – we're empowering people to access the sounds that matter most, enabling them to participate confidently in conversations and stay connected with loved ones, without having to accept compromises in terms of size or battery life,” says Peter Justesen, President, Hearing division at GN.

ReSound Enzo IA utilizes a specialized 360 chip that processes environmental sounds in real time, using machine–learning artificial intelligence for the best all–round listening experience.3 This approach, which GN calls Intelligence Augmented™ (IA), analyzes surrounding sounds and adjusts settings accordingly, easing cognitive load.

In noisy environments, Clear Focus, the industry's most narrow beamformer,4 spotlights speech in front and eliminates distractions, resulting in a 93% preference for hearing in noise for Super Power users, and a significant 2.7 dB Signal–to–Noise Ratio improvement over legacy devices.5

The device offers all–day battery life in the smallest rechargeable Super Power hearing aid. A single charge provides 28 hours of use, or 20 hours when streaming media half the time.

ReSound Enzo IA supports Bluetooth® Low Energy Audio and Auracast™ technology, allowing users to access audio broadcasts in public venues using the ReSound Smart 3D™ app. The hearing aid is also compatible with the Multi–Mic+ for improved listening in public spaces through Telecoil, and the TV–Streamer+.

“These life changing hearing aids have transformed my world; without them, I wouldn't hear anything. Seemingly small technological advancements represent significant improvements that greatly enhance the daily lives of those of us with severe to profound hearing loss. ReSound Enzo IA has enriched my auditory experience in ways I never thought possible,” says Helen Cherry, ReSound Enzo IA user.

ReSound Enzo IA and its Beltone equivalent, Beltone BoostTM Max S, will launch initially in the US and Germany on August 21, with more markets to follow.

LOS ANGELES and NEW YORK, Aug. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Innovative Rocket Technologies Inc. (“iRocket” or the “Company”), a next–generation reusable space rocket developer, and BPGC Acquisition Corp.

“This relationship marks a significant step in our journey to become a regional and global leader in secure space operations,” commented Cliff Beek, CEO of SpaceBelt KSA. “Aligning our efforts with the iRocket team advances our vision to build sovereign space–based infrastructure for the Kingdom that delivers strategic value across defense, enterprise, and diplomacy sectors.”

“As a private entity, we are proud to partner with leading innovators in space systems to develop the core infrastructure for sovereign space logistics, supporting both the national and commercial ambitions of Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030,” said Eng.

Under the agreement, iRocket will provide launch vehicle integration, mission planning, and propulsion system for up to 30 of SpaceBelt KSA’s upcoming orbital launches. The partnership includes multiple launches of satellite constellations, laying the foundation for a secure, resilient, and autonomous space–based communications network across Saudi Arabia and the broader Gulf Cooperation Council (“GCC”) region.

Forward–Looking Statements

This press release contains forward–looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. BPGC’s, Holdco’s and/or iRocket’s actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward–looking statements as predictions of future events. Forward–looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance, and underlying assumptions and other statements that are other than statements of historical facts. No representations or warranties, express or implied are given in, or in respect of, this Current Report on Form 8–K. When we use words such as “may,” “will,” “intend,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “project,” “estimate” or similar expressions that do not relate solely to historical matters, it is making forward–looking statements.

These forward–looking statements and factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: (1) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the agreement with SpaceBelt KSA or a failure of SpaceBelt KSA to fulfill its obligations under the agreement; (2) iRocket’s future ability to provide launch services and recognize revenue under the agreement with SpaceBelt KSA; (3) iRocket’s ability to perform the agreement with SpaceBelt KSA in a cost–effective manner; (4) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement with respect to the Proposed Transaction, (5) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the parties following the announcement of the Proposed Transaction and definitive agreements with respect thereto; (6) the inability to complete the Proposed Transaction, including due to failure to obtain approval of the shareholders of iRocket and BPGC or other conditions to closing; (7) the inability to obtain or maintain the listing of Holdco’s shares on Nasdaq or another national securities exchange following the Proposed Transaction; (8) the ability of BPGC to become current in its SEC filings; (9) the risk that the Proposed Transaction disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Proposed Transaction; (10) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Proposed Transaction, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably and retain its key employees; (11) costs related to the Proposed Transaction; (12) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (13) the inability of iRocket or Holdco to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations after the completion of the Proposed Transaction; (14) the risk that additional financing in connection with the Proposed Transaction, or additional capital needed following the Proposed Transaction to support iRocket’s or Holdco’s business or operations, may not be raised on favorable terms or at all; (15) the risk that iRocket’s signed letters of intent and memorandum of understandings may not result in definitive agreements or generate revenue; and (16) other risks and uncertainties included in documents filed or to be filed with the SEC by Holdco, iRocket and/or BPGC.

The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Registration Statement referenced above when available and other documents filed by Holdco, iRocket and BPGC from time to time with the SEC. These filings will identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward–looking statements. You should not place undue reliance upon any forward–looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. There may be additional risks that none of BPGC, Holdco or iRocket presently know, or that BPGC, Holdco, and/or iRocket currently believe are immaterial, that could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward–looking statements. For these reasons, among others, investors and other interested persons are cautioned not to place undue reliance upon any forward–looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8–K. Past performance by iRocket’s or BPGC’s management teams and their respective affiliates is not a guarantee of future performance. Therefore, you should not place undue reliance on the historical record of the performance of iRocket’s or BPGC’s management teams or businesses associated with them as indicative of future performance of an investment or the returns that Holdco, iRocket or BPGC will, or are likely to, generate going forward. None of BPGC, Holdco or iRocket undertakes any obligation to publicly revise these forward–looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date of this communication, except as required by applicable law.
