HELIX Extension Card 2.0 – BT HD

Extension Card 2.0 – BT HD Wireless HD audio streaming – flexible, powerful, future-proof The Extension Card 2.0 BT HD transforms your DSP or DSP amplifier into a fully capable Bluetooth® audio streaming hub. Thanks to the modern BT5.0 standard and support for high-quality codecs like aptX HD, AAC, and SBC, you’ll enjoy wireless music playback in outstanding quality – up to 576 kbps and 24 bit / 48 kHz. The module also features an optical digital output (SPDIF), offering additional connection options. High Definition Audio With the integrated Qualcomm® aptX™ HD audio codec, high-resolution wireless audio transmission is ensured at all times. The direct digital signal path from the module to the DSP – without any additional AD/DA conversion – guarantees lossless processing and exceptional sound performance. Full control The BT HD module supports control commands such as play/pause, track forward/backward, connect, pairing, and disconnect of a connected DSP remote control (e.g. CONDUCTOR or DIRECTOR). The DIRECTOR´s display also shows the current artist and song title as well as the currently used audio codec. Wireless DSP tuning The increased data transmission of the BT5.0 standard in combination with the DSP PC-Tool software (version 6 or higher) and a PC with Bluetooth® wireless technology allows wireless configuration of all DSP devices with ACO platform. A cumbersome connection via USB cable is now a thing of the past. Seamless integration – maximum compatibility The Extension Card 2.0 - BT HD is compatible with all HELIX and MATCH DSP products featuring an Extension Card 2.0 slot. A module-specific plastic cover panel is included for easy installation into the universal opening of the device’s side panel.
