Intraplex T-1. DIGITAL or AUDIO. Marti STL-8**. 39 or 67 KHz. 39, 67 or 92 KHz. Marti STL-15. May 4, 2016 - These carrier-grade links can transport several stereo audio channels with bit-for-bit clarity, plus provide for all the other data services just mentioned and have room for growth. This paper describes not only the STL needs and challenges facing broadcast engineers, but provides clear, workable solutions.

DATA RATE Any in range 32kHz to 56kHz (32, 44.1 or 48kHz typically output from AES/EBU devices). DIGITAL STEREO GENERATOR Complete digital composite stereo waveform generated in the digital domain from incoming AES/EBU stereo audio data, using a digital signal processor (DSP).

DIGITAL BASEBAND COMPOSITE LIMITING WAVES L-1 Ultramaximizer ™ lookahead' techniques for control of peaks before overmodulation can occur. Active with on-board DSP stereo generator in stereo or monaural mode; pilot carrier and SCA signals unaffected.

Limiter on/off and limit setting adjustable from 0-18dB either locally or by standard remote control systems. PRE-EMPHASIS 0, 25, 50 or 75us, locally selectable. STEREO SEPARATION (sine wave) 65dB or greater, 10Hz to 15kHz.
