Vanco Announces Wireless Extender for 2.1 Channel Audio

September 2 2024, 02:10
Vanco International announced the launch of the PAEXWIR wireless audio extender. This solution, part of the company's PulseAudio portfolio of distribution products, transmits uncompressed stereo audio and subwoofer signals up to 164 feet (50m) with line of sight, or 50 feet (15m) through walls, ceilings and floors. Accepting simply analog inputs, the stereo signal and subwoofer channel, 20Hz to 20KHz, are transmitted digitally at high-quality 24-bit, 48kHz sampling rate.
 

Whether an application calls for wireless transmissions for aesthetic reasons or logistical considerations, the PAEXWIR is a reliable, low-cost solution. Designed to deliver reliable, high-quality wireless audio, this new PAEXWIR solution uses dedicated transmitter and receiver hardware to offer uncompressed audio transmission, using adaptive frequency hopping and selectable 5.2 GHz or 5.8 GHz frequency ranges to avoid interference from other wireless devices. 

The extender achieves maximum range with line of sight and can pass through the same physical materials as Wi-Fi over distances up to 50 feet. This versatility makes PAEXWIR an ideal analog audio transmission solution for challenging spaces, simplifying 2.1 channel audio integration for retrofits, rentals, and any other context where running cables is impossible or inconvenient.

"Integrators need the capacity to deliver rich stereo audio under any circumstances," says Brandon White, Director of New Product Development for Vanco. "With PAEXWIR, you can make your stereo speakers the sculptural centerpiece of an open-plan living room, discretely position active subwoofers in a listening space, or connect speakers in an architecturally significant space without exposing unsightly wires."

According to Vanco, the PAEXWIR 2.1 Wireless Extender begins shipping in September 2024. Like all Vanco products, this extender is 100% QC-tested in Vanco’s North American headquarters and backed by Vanco's customer service and warranty programs. The solution will be demonstrated live at CEDIA Expo 2024, in Booth 1523.
