Intraplex® IPConnect is an IP networking gateway solution for fortification of mission-critical communication across wide area networks
IPConnect solves the problem of reliable transport across complex networks that traditionally suffer data loss through dropped packets. IPConnect provides an added layer of reliability for many types of IP traffic such as HD Radio, DAB/DAB+, or DRM by employing a combination of packet protection schemes with network/time diversity and packet-level forward error correction. Additionally, IPConnect can bridge local area network (LAN) segments across wide-area networks with seamless tunneling to enhance reliability of program and signal transport across large geographical regions with multiple receiving and transmitting sites.
With its three network interfaces, IPConnect’s data gateway provides extra protection through packet encapsulation, which encloses external IP data packets in a GatesAir protocol wrapper as it moves across IP networks. IPConnect provides this protection for studio-generated data, as well as IP data from external sources. While the former might include RDS data or SNMP control signals to trigger a command at the transmitter site, the latter may incorporate program or control data coming from a network operations center, satellite feed or advertising service.
As the next-generation member in GatesAir Intraplex family of IP codecs, the award-winning IPConnect leverages the strengths of previous IP Link codecs—including GatesAir’s patented Dynamic Stream Splicing (DSS) technology to mitigate IP packet loss, eliminate off-air time, and optimize stream reliability.

INTRAPLEX® ASCENT
The scalability of Ascent makes it ideal for applications that require multiple channels of audio encoding and decoding at head-end sites. The high-density solution reduces cost and provides a path for convergence of IT and broadcast infrastructure. The interoperability between Ascent and IP Link codecs provides a complementary solution for remote contribution and distribution use cases.
Product Details
The Ascent platform continues the Intraplex tradition of providing an unprecedented level of reliability for audio over IP application. Built with enhanced network reliability and security in mind, Ascent supports the Dynamic Stream Splicing technology of IP Link codec, which provides “hitless” protection for packet losses using the combination of time and network diversity for packet transmission, and FEC.
To further enhance reliability and security, the platform supports the SRT protocol encapsulation. SRT (Secure Reliable Transport) is an open-source protocol that provides low-latency, reliable and secure streaming of audio and video data. The reliability in SRT is accomplished by a built-in packet re-transmission scheme; the security of streams is handled by the built-in AES-128/256 payload encryption.
In addition to “hitless” protection, like the IP Link codecs, the Ascent also supports automatic failover between different incoming streams or stored audio.
This combination of capabilities gives Intraplex codecs a market-leading position in STL over IP technology and unmatched network transport reliability.
Ascent supports both physical audio interfaces (AES3, Analog) and AES67 (AoIP), with a maximum of 16 full-duplex or a total of 32 channels (combination of encode and decode). Physical audio interfaces can be ordered as 4- or 8-channel cards, supporting both AES3 and analog audio signals. The Ascent product is built on the Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) x86 architecture to leverage the scalability and cost of the technology. The product is available in a 1RU branded hardware server and as a software-only option.

INTRAPLEX® HD LINK™
Our challenge: to design a studio-to-transmitter link (STL) for your most demanding 950 MHz applications — one as reliable and robust as Intraplex® T1 and IP audio links. Digital STL manages much more than audio, so installation and configuration need to be straightforward, not a science project. Data should not be optional, requiring additional boxes and complexity. Your STL should be ready, out of the box, for AM, FM and HD Radio™, as well as future multimedia applications.
Earlier digital STLs were not designed for IP data transport. Adding IP data to them required optional modules and external add-ons, and many engineers working on HD Radio installations reported spending much time and money trying to eliminate glitches.
Our solution: HD Link™ is designed to manage all HD Radio™ transport scenarios, regardless of where you place your importer and exporter. Its two prioritized Ethernet paths give preference to HD Radio™ data over control and other LAN/WAN data. It supports both UDP and TCP, and even handles the switching of TCP return packets over asymmetric IP paths with plug-and-play simplicity.
HD Link offers RF power to spare, an integrated IP gateway with sophisticated data handling capabilities, and multiple channels of audio. The intuitive front panel and remote interfaces tap into the most complete feature set of any microwave STL, yet take less time to configure. It can even operate on both RF and IP simultaneously, and allows automatic backup of all services from one to the other.
Intraplex is broadcasting’s first choice for rock-solid, full-time operation of T1 STLs. With HD Link, you can now count on the same dependable performance, superior support and long-term value for your microwave links.

INTRAPLEX® IPCONNECT
IPConnect solves the problem of reliable transport across complex networks that traditionally suffer data loss through dropped packets. IPConnect provides an added layer of reliability for many types of IP traffic such as HD Radio, DAB/DAB+, or DRM by employing a combination of packet protection schemes with network/time diversity and packet-level forward error correction. Additionally, IPConnect can bridge local area network (LAN) segments across wide-area networks with seamless tunneling to enhance reliability of program and signal transport across large geographical regions with multiple receiving and transmitting sites.
With its three network interfaces, IPConnect’s data gateway provides extra protection through packet encapsulation, which encloses external IP data packets in a GatesAir protocol wrapper as it moves across IP networks. IPConnect provides this protection for studio-generated data, as well as IP data from external sources. While the former might include RDS data or SNMP control signals to trigger a command at the transmitter site, the latter may incorporate program or control data coming from a network operations center, satellite feed or advertising service.
As the next-generation member in GatesAir Intraplex family of IP codecs, the award-winning IPConnect leverages the strengths of previous IP Link codecs—including GatesAir’s patented Dynamic Stream Splicing (DSS) technology to mitigate IP packet loss, eliminate off-air time, and optimize stream reliability.
INTRAPLEX® HD LINK™
Our challenge: to design a studio-to-transmitter link (STL) for your most demanding 950 MHz applications — one as reliable and robust as Intraplex® T1 and IP audio links. Digital STL manages much more than audio, so installation and configuration need to be straightforward, not a science project. Data should not be optional, requiring additional boxes and complexity. Your STL should be ready, out of the box, for AM, FM and HD Radio™, as well as future multimedia applications.
Earlier digital STLs were not designed for IP data transport. Adding IP data to them required optional modules and external add-ons, and many engineers working on HD Radio installations reported spending much time and money trying to eliminate glitches.
Our solution: HD Link™ is designed to manage all HD Radio™ transport scenarios, regardless of where you place your importer and exporter. Its two prioritized Ethernet paths give preference to HD Radio™ data over control and other LAN/WAN data. It supports both UDP and TCP, and even handles the switching of TCP return packets over asymmetric IP paths with plug-and-play simplicity.
HD Link offers RF power to spare, an integrated IP gateway with sophisticated data handling capabilities, and multiple channels of audio. The intuitive front panel and remote interfaces tap into the most complete feature set of any microwave STL, yet take less time to configure. It can even operate on both RF and IP simultaneously, and allows automatic backup of all services from one to the other.
Intraplex is broadcasting’s first choice for rock-solid, full-time operation of T1 STLs. With HD Link, you can now count on the same dependable performance, superior support and long-term value for your microwave links.
Stereoplacer
Stereoplacer is an advanced fine-tune parametric balancing control. You can tune each band into specific frequencies and move the frequency content around in the stereo sound stage. Just choose the position you want, and let Stereoplacer take care of preserving the balance of the original sounds.
Choose the frequencies you want to fix and move them anywhere, leaving the rest of the stereo image intact. Make improvements in any area of the sound stage without causing problems elsewhere. Stereoplacer gives you precise control you just can’t get within a traditional mix setup.
Enhance recordings
Focus in on the frequencies you want to move using the intuitive solo controls and then tweak/fix/align them in the stereo panorama without affecting any other regions - simple, quick and effective!
- Fix poor recordings
- Ideal for restoration
- Reposition complex audio
- Reconstruct mono image
- Dynamic visual feedback
- Harmonic capture
Flexible controls
With fully adjustable curves (bell, high and low shelving and even additional linked-harmonic overtones) you can redistribute stereo information with subtlety, or make powerful corrections – even moving hard-panned frequencies from one side to the other – without affecting the overall level balance of the material.
'Panning' the bass
Sometimes a mix calls for a bass element, say the bass guitar track, to be panned away from the centre. Often this is best avoided as off-centre high energy in the low frequencies can create more problems than it resolves. Using Stereoplacer, however, the low frequencies can be kept in the centre whilst higher frequencies (i.e. the attack component) are moved across the stereo field with a shelving band. This gives the impression that the bass part has been panned, when really only the high, directional frequencies have been affected.
You can also achieve the opposite effect, pulling stray low frequencies back into the centre without affecting the entire sound.
With each node it is possible to add a number of additional harmonically linked bell curves, all referenced from the one ‘root’ control point.
For post production and restoration
Re-position specific elements or achieve gentle linear phase adjustment of your entire mix. Extrapolate and re-balance poorly positioned instruments whilst leaving the rest of the soundfield intact. You can even add stereo detail to previously mono recordings, leaving the original character intact.
Typical applications
- Panning sounds in sample loops
- Fixing poor microphone placement
- Shifting problem frequencies
- Double tracking stereo distribution
- Extrapolating poorly panned sounds
Stereoizer
Stereoizer is a stereo width plug-in with a clear difference - your mix will still sound great in mono. Add natural sounding width and depth to any recording, mono or stereo, leaving the character of the source intact. Or go super wide - the choice is yours.
Achieve a more coherent sound with polish and spatial balance, without adding artificial reverb, chorusing or delay. Total mono compatibility and no unwanted artefacts.
Add clarity & focus
Expand your stereo image. Mono to stereo, stereo to super-wide and everywhere in between. Natural extension or extreme effects, Stereoizer provides it all, with plenty of presets & detailed control for the expert.
- Natural panoramic extension
- No unwanted artefacts
- Retains original character
- Highly mono compatible
- Band limited precision
- Dynamic visual feedback
Detailed stereo extension
Each of Stereoizer's algorithms adapts the characteristics of your audio using techniques based on the way the human ear perceives width. The IID (Interaural Intensity Difference), ITD (Interaural Time Difference) and Linear Width algorithms work independently of each other, giving you maximum flexibility. For more lively adjustments, use the IID and ITD controls; the Linear Width control is more subtle and, crucially, leaves the 'centre space' of your mix untouched.
Highly mono compatible
Mono compatibility is easily overlooked, but is as important now as it has ever been. Many club and PA sound systems are still set up for mono playback, and the majority of portable radios, smartphones and many TV sets are mono.
Stereoizer does not add any artificial reverberation, which means no disruptive artefacts such as doubling/chorusing effects or phase cancellation affecting your mono signal. The 'Collapse output to mono' option allows you to check mono compatibility on the fly for your own peace of mind.
For post production and restoration
Stereoizer is a gift for subtle enhancement of ambience sounds, clearing space for dialog in the centre, or even injecting stereo liveliness into formerly mono recordings.
Whether restoring old recordings or optimising new recordings for louder playback, Stereoizer allows for natural-sounding extrapolation of your existing stereo image. This can be used to re-introduce natural ambience which may have been lost during other stages of the production process.
Stereo frequency analysis
Stereoizer's visual analysis displays how your stereo field deviates from the centre. This is measured against frequency from 20Hz to 22kHz, allowing for frequency-conscious adjustments without the need to refer to a separate analysis plug-in.
Typical applications
- Expanding a narrow stereo image
- Introducing width to mono recordings
- Adding movement
- Taming eccentric material
- Creating 'centre space'
- Avoiding unnecessary EQ
Surround Suite
Surround Suite delivers all the control needed to define, enhance and fine-tune your surround mix to perfection. Achieve natural and coherent upmixing from stereo to 5.1 and 7.1 via Halo Upmix, take advantage of ISL's transparent True Peak limiting and SEQ-S's linear phase EQ in surround modes, and complement your surround workflow with Halo Downmix's precise and tweakable downmixing.
Natural extension
With unique centre channel management, including switchable dialog extraction, Halo Upmix is perfect for all types of production from archive restoration and TV through to the full 7.1 feature film experience. With surround delivery requirements becoming more and more common, a tool like Halo Upmix can be indispensable. Unlike legacy upmixing practices, Halo Upmix offers full downmix compatibility.

Complement your workflow
Precise surround control, versatile downmix balancing and mix monitoring for accelerating and enhancing your surround productivity. Halo Downmix is the glue that brings your workflow together, allowing you to deliver in surround and stereo with ease and without compromise.
Transparent, reliable
No need to second guess your sample-peak limiter time and again, or deliberately increase headroom to avoid a downstream problem. Just dial in your True Peak limit and let ISL take care of the rest. Unlike traditional limiters, ISL provides a TPlim control, automatically adjusting transfer curve parameters for minimally invasive brick-wall protection.
Unparalleled flexibility
SEQ-S gives you EQ matching up to 7.1, with stereo mid/side operation and automated spectrum analysis. Automated EQ morphing allows for controlled scene transitions and creative sound design possibilities.
For post and broadcast
Surround delivery requirements are becoming more common, making a consistent surround workflow indispensable for anyone in post production. Expand your existing stereo and 5.1 mixes with zero artificial reverberation or chorusing effects, tweak and refine with True Peak limiting and powerful EQ sculpting/matching/morphing, and then fine-tune your downmix to ensure the best possible stereo fold-down.

DAIConnect – SSAI Platform
Ad Insertion Platform's DAIConnct SSAI platform functions as an enhanced solution to manage server-side-ad-insertions for live and on-demand content. Our technology enables dynamic and personalized insertion of video advertising via HLS and Mpeg-DASH protocols, guaranteeing a best-in-class end-user experience without buffering or latency issues.
DAIConnect Suite is composed of 4 independent components working together to fulfil exact customer needs.
- Ad Break Composer
- DAI Manifest Manipulator
- DAI Optimizer
- DAI Insight
The Ad Break Composer:
The Ad Break Composer is the core component of the solution.
It is in charge among other features to:
- Create, edit and apply rules for each ad break and each user based on multiple parameters.
- Mix ads coming from one or more ad server/SSP combined with optional ad bumpers, interstitials or promos
- Add external and contextual data to target your audience
- Validate creatives and adapt creatives video formats, apply or change tags/categories
- Benefit from the various ad inventory split features (volume, device, SCTE35 event ID ...)
- Adapt the insertion workflow as needed day per day or minutes per minutes without interruption or downtime
- Manage dynamically ad parameters from player query parameters or with default values, per channel, time period, VOD catalogs
- Configurable Ad server prefetching
The DAI Manifest Manipulator:
This component is the processor in charge of the manifest manipulation for SSAI. It is executing the following tasks:
- Manipulate the HLS or MPEG-DASH manifest for each user to enable one-to-one targeting ad insertion; the Ad Pod created by the Ad Break Composer is inserted for each user session
- Manage multiple HLS tags for ad insertion (#EXT-X-CUE-OUT/IN, #EXT-OATCLS-SCTE35, #EXT-X-DATERANGE-)
- Support HLS versions v3 and higher
- Push on storage ad trackers information for server-side ad tracking
- Insert additional information in the manifest (for client-side tracking for example)
- Provide a monitoring interface to detect any issue coming from the sources, the system itself or third components like ad servers
The DAI Insights
Data is critical for customers and our DAIConnect is the bridge between these two words. This position is ideal to be able to store, analyze and process data coming from the Adtech components or the video delivery part.
DAI Insight provide so features like:
- Validate / Analyze your ad insertion number regarding ad servers
- Get insights on your ad performance and fill rate
- Analyze data regarding audiences even if the CDN delivery is not done by yourself
- Easy dashboard to get insights on audience, device split, ad insertions, etc.
- Transparent data view, available to different parties (Device Manufacturers, Broadcasters / Publisher, Content owner…)
- Allow data storage activation to be able to generate graphs and reports
DAI Optimizer
The main function for this component is to provide services allowing:
- Optimizing the value of the ad inventory by enabling unified header bidding auctions with AIP ad Network.
- Connections to multiple demand sources to retrieve the highest revenue for each opportunity.
- Work with multiple ad partners to sell your unsold inventory at the best price.
- Increase programmatic revenues and fill rate.
Why we are different
For broadcasters and video content providers, an inherent tension exists between the need to deliver a premium viewing experience – complete with start-over and time-shifted TV functionality – and to monetize streaming video offerings and services. The challenge of monetizing over-the-top (OTT) video content will only continue to grow as viewership on connected devices increases.
Ad Insertion Platform goes beyond SSAI and offers an end-to-end solution to meet market demands:
- User Interface, many SSAI solutions are API managed. At AIP, we decided to provide a full-feature platform. It can of course be managed by API, but it has a user-friendly interface allowing not only technical DevOps to work on the platform but also staff coming from the Adtech universe.
- Workflow and orchestration management through the “Ad Break Composer” application. All SSAI have quite basic features, managing ad bumpers, one call to an ad server and a final filler. Our solution provides a workflow editor to create events on a calendar. Each event contains the workflow that the SSAI will do when detecting an ad break. Many features are included as for example Volume Split, that allows to do a specific action or call for x% of the simultaneous viewer and another process for the rest. Or device split, to define what to insert for mobile users for example and what to insert for CTV users that will be different.
- Monitoring: DAIConnect includes a monitoring view allowing to detect any issue on production regarding the input streams, the platform itself or the third parties’ elements like ad servers.
- Statistics and data: Our DAI Insight component allows our customer to retrieve data and statistics about their service. All data can come from the video delivery part (like audiences) or from the Ad tech third parties, like the number of ads inserted, fill-rates, number of missed opportunities, etc.
- One solution for FAST and AVOD. The platform is managing from a simple interface live and VOD offers allowing the customer to have a central solution for both services
- Complex encoding workflow. The solution is natively multi-CDN, DAIConnect proposes a user interface to define the encoding workflow and ad delivery processes.
- Ad reviewing, as the system can call multiple ad servers and can also add ads coming from programmatic, if the customer wants to guarantee that the ads are compliant with their rules, the platform can block non-reviewed ads and is providing an interface to make a visual validation by the user.
- Multi-cloud deployment. The solution runs on multiple public cloud infrastructures like AWS and Google Cloud Platform but can also be deployed on-premises for operators willing to do SSAI on their own infrastructure and CDN.
- Simplicity: we take care of the complexity of ad insertion and bridge the gap between the video delivery infrastructure and the AdTech components, so you can focus on your content.
- Fully agnostic: as we serve as an abstraction layer, we can work with major ad servers, SSPs and DSPs assuring retrieval of all the market demand for your inventory.
- Independency: with our DAIConnect platform your ad pod management is not linked to your ad server, giving you flexibility for the ad break composition rules and logic.
- Transparency: instead of using the “blackbox” SSAI component from your ad server, you can have full control and transparency.
- Cost optimization: changing parameters if your inventory sales are not performing is easy and does not require additional technical integration costs
- Monitoring: we offer full insights and access to aggregated data regarding audiences and ad insertion statistics to analyze your KPI.
