Bext Radio Transmitters

  • Solid State                   

CDXE & CDXD                

  • New generation, totally transparent Digital Encoders / Decoders for STLs

  • 2 audio channels (CDXE2 & CDXD2) or 4 audio channels (CDXE4 & CDXD4), 20 Hz to 15 kHz each

  • One Auxiliary Data Channel (2 channel models)/ Two Auxiliary Data Channels (4 channel models)

  • Highest digital audio quality is preserved even through multiple hops

  • Very high immunity to noise compared to an analog link

  • Very high immunity to interference of adjacent channels

  • Automatic muting in case of sync loss

  • Audio levels readings on LED bars and Status indicators on front panel

  • Dual independent coded signal outputs on Encoder

  • Additional output on Decoder with a regenerated digital signal for multiple hops without degradation
