There are three products in the range providing encoding/decoding and

The PS-SEND converts an audio input to an IP stream.
The PS-PLAY reads an IP stream and outputs to balanced and unbalanced
audio line levels.
The PS-AMP reads an IP stream and outputs audio to stereo speakers.
There are versions of the product which are rackmountable in a 1U high
chassis: PS-SENDS, PS-PLAYS and PS-AMPS respectively. The functionality of
the products is the same as the non-rackmount versions.
