Tieline adds Livewire+ support to codecs

Tieline has added native Livewire+ support to its Gateway and Gateway 4 codecs. Integrating native support for Livewire+ facilitates interfacing easily between Gateway and Gateway 4 codecs and Livewire AoIP networks. 

Previously, the codecs could only connect to Livewire+ devices in AES67 compatibility mode.

“Tieline always advocates for interoperability of equipment from different vendors of IP systems and products,” said Charlie Gawley, Tieline’s vice president of sales for APAC/EMEA.

“That’s why our Gateway platform includes native support for AES67, ST 2110-30, ST2022-7, AMWA NMOS IS-04 and IS-05, Ember+, Ravenna and now Livewire+. An optional WheatNet-IP card is also available, and we plan to support Dante in the coming months. This allows devices using different open standard and proprietary AoIP protocols to connect seamlessly.” 

Tieline says new firmware supporting Livewire+ will be available in Q2 of 2022, and it will provide a free upgrade for existing customers. The company will display the Gateway and Gateway 4 codecs at its booth — C1707  — at this year’s NAB show, April 23-27.
