Welcome To Opal Technology Co Website.
Perfect for live sport coverage, ScoopTeam is a commentary unit integrating a double mono codec for live transmission of one or two audio signals with high audio quality (up to 20 kHz bandwidth).
The unit can mix 4 XLR microphone inputs and up to 9 other audio sources on two channels. Both audio channels can be routed to a single destination (dual mono codec transmission), or two different destinations (dual codec). The stereo algorithms (MPEG Layer 2, AAC, Opus) allow to use ScoopTeam to transmit a stereo stream by mobilizing the coordination bus for mixing the right channel.
The interface is intuitive, with backlit buttons and dedicated and assignable knobs for settings and volume control. The AETA Remote Access function allows you to access the settings of the device remotely from an Internet connection.
In addition to its codec function, ScoopTeam can also be used as an intercom panel, thanks to its Ravenna AES67 interface (2 channels in, 2 channels out) and to its analogue and AES audio inputs/outputs.
Thanks to its flexibility and its audio mixing and distribution capabilities, ScoopTeam can also be used as a light mobile studio on small installations.
ScoopTeam mainly targets IP networks, but alternative transmission modes are available as options:

With the integrated Mobile option, ScoopTeam supports both voice (and HD Voice™) and IP transmission over 3G / 4G networks. In addition to a coordination function using the mobile network, the HD™ voice will often be a good way to provide a backup link when other networks are failing.
By connecting a USB mobile key, ScoopTeam can also connect to a second mobile data network. Convenient to double the SIM cards and perform a Double Streaming link. In IP mode, the interleaved packet duplication (FEC) technique provides a robust link.
Coming with two free factory SIP accounts on AETA SIP server, ScoopTeam also offers a “Direct RTP” mode. The “Direct RTP” mode which allows you to set up a link over an IP network without using the SIP protocol.
