BEAVERTON, Oregon — Biamp Systems, a leading provider of innovative, networked media systems, announced the expansion of its TesiraFORTÉ^® family of digital audio processors. The TesiraFORTÉ family was engineered to reduce design, programming, and commissioning time while offering increased flexibility. The new TesiraFORTÉ VT provides both VoIP and POTS options within the same chassis; TesiraFORTÉ VT4 delivers the same flexibility designed specifically for small conference rooms.

The TesiraFORTÉ VT includes stand-alone, AVB, and Dante^™ versions, and provides all the features of the original TesiraFORTÉ family. The TesiraFORTÉ VT4 includes AVB and Dante versions, while providing the same flexibility for small conference rooms with four analog inputs and four analog outputs.

“When we introduced TesiraFORTÉ, we offered our customers the high-quality conferencing capabilities built into the Tesira platform,” said Zach Snook, audio product manager, Biamp Systems. “The new VT and VT4 models offer our customers greater flexibility to meet the range of room requirements without paying for features they don’t need — providing a powerful, cost-efficient solution.”

The new models include:
  TesiraFORTÉ VT
  TesiraFORTÉ AVB VT and TesiraFORTÉ AVB VT4
  TesiraFORTÉ DAN VT and TesiraFORTÉ DAN VT4

The TesiraFORTÉ VT and VT4 solutions are equipped with Biamp’s AEC technology to eliminate acoustic echoes and feedback, networked audio via AVB or Dante, and USB audio to interface directly with soft-codec conferencing technologies. Other features include Ethernet control, VoIP and POTS input, RS-232, a general-purpose input/output, as well as an OLED display that comes standard on all TesiraFORTÉ models.

The TesiraFORTÉ VT and TesiraFORTÉ VT4 will be available in October 2017. More information on Biamp’s full product portfolio is available at www.biamp.com.
