Major savings by connecting to internet telephony providers
Flexibly and dynamically shares IP lines with up to 8 studios
IP audio inputs and outputs (Dante, AES67 compatible)
Different control terminals: touch-screen phone, PC app

Functional Description
SOLARIS, the Systel MAX engine, has only an information display on the front panel and a button to access additional screens with detailed information.
As communication is entirely IP-based, the rear panel only has 5 network ports, a USB port for maintenance, a CUE output, and the connectors and switches for redundant power.
The widest functionality for managing conversations and communications over VoIP
PDFCatalogEngine
The system is based on "SOLARIS for SYSTEL MAX", a 19" rack unit with 5 IP ports for implementing redundant AoIP, VoIP and control networks.
It can activate (depending on the licence) up to 128 IP telephone lines or operator extensions, and 128 IP inputs/outputs with AES67 or Dante protocol — sufficient for a multi-studio radio or television centre supporting up to 8 studios.
The unit works as a set of multi-line IP phones with SIP signalling. It is compatible with IP PBX, SIP Trunking and virtual PBX systems. It also supports analogue and ISDN telephone lines via gateways.
Control applications
Systel IP Original
Consists of a PC control application and a conventional IP phone. Based on call queues, generally for radio use.
It is the best option in high-productivity environments with functionality distributed across roles such as producers, operators and presenters.
Systel IP TV
With a similar appearance to the Original, it is based on multiplex to provide access to intercom systems or external technical intercommunication — more common in television.
Systel SET MAX
This is the operating application integrated into the SYSTEL SET MAX touch-screen phone, enabling very flexible operation and eliminating the need for a PC in control rooms or other small spaces.
