Barix Exstreamer 100 Audio over IP Decoder

The Barix Exstreamer 100 is a versatile network audio decoder for a variety of applications. It enables users to create flexible, cost-effective distributed audio systems using standard IP technology. The Barix Exstreamer 100 plays MP3 (soon also G.711 & PCM) audio files from PC or web server (http) as well as legacy digital and analog sources (using the Barix Instreamer) and streams from sources like Shoutcast, Icecast (Internet radio) or RTP servers (Instreamer).
The device is easily controlled by a standard web browser and with the optional Barix IR remote control.With serial and Ethernet control APIs, the device can also be managed from typical automation systems. Installing the Barix Exstreamer 100 is fast and simple due to its unique features SonicIP and IPzator: On power up the device findes a correct IP address and announces it over the audio and headphone outputs !
