Axia Audio has a new addition to its family of IP-Audio network integrators: Gregory Dahl’s Second Opinion Communications, headquartered in Rockford, Illinois.

"We’re glad to welcome Greg to our family of integration partners," says Axia marketing manager Clark Novak. "After more than 20 years in broadcast engineering, Greg is quite well known, both for his time as a CE in for Clear Channel and his position as DoE for Connoisseur Communications. Axia clients will be well-served by his expertise and knowledge, and his enthusiasm for IP-Audio!"

"We are very excited to be an integration partner with Axia Audio, a cutting edge company in the broadcast industry," says Dahl. "SOCi is committed to providing the highest quality integration service with Axia Audio as the foundation of a broadcast facility."

Axia allows broadcasters to quickly and easily build audio networks using switched Ethernet to connect a few rooms, or an entire facility. Axia networks have a total system capacity of more than 10,000 audio streams, and can carry hundreds of digital stereo channels (plus machine logic and PAD) over a single CAT-6 cable, eliminating much of the cost normally associated with wiring labor and infrastructure. Over 30 partner companies make broadcast equipment that connects directly via Ethernet to Axia networks, and Axia IP-Audio networks are now on-the-air in more than 3,000 studios worldwide.
