Description

A COMPLETE ALL-INCLUSIVE PACKAGE GETS YOU ON AIR IN MINUTES!

This package is based on our CyberMaxFM+ BE+ rack mounted FM transmitter series for demanding broadcasters operating in the 87.5 to 108MHz band. The new Black Edition (BE+) series FM exciter brings completely new advanced graphics display with many new features such as web control interface, ethernet connectivity, two-color VU meter, smooth rotary button operation and full control over every aspect including RDS. Sharp low pass filter, great stereo separation, fantastic reliability and tight MPX control with several limiters were carried over from the previous models. With this new OLED display and new great looking enclosures with improved ventilation it seemed completely logical that warranty period would be extended to 5 years **.

This unit is perfect for demanding broadcasters. No tuning is necessary, design is entirely wideband. All you have to do is set the frequency and output power, the rest is optional. SWR, temperature and polarity protection make it difficult to destroy the unit. Unit is housed in a brand-new 3H professional 19″ rack, new design is lighter and RF tight (does not leak RF). It is rugged and made for 24/7/365 operation. Each unit has a wide-angle high contrast OLED display.

Those who use streaming sources to stream your audio will be happy to hear that as an option we also offer industry – standard streaming service receiver which also reads MP3 files from USB port at the back. What is even cooler is that the name of the stream or song name (if transmitted by stream operators) will be displayed on the display and also sent out with RDS. Instructions how to set this up are in the manual for the LCD display.

Package contains transmitter, an antenna, coaxial cable and all connectors. A perfect FM transmitter for a regular licensed radio station, medium size radio station, campus radio or a religious radio. Also very suitable for Africa and other remote locations. Protected with Temp and SWR protection. The best value for your money.

ADVANTAGES
Bright 122×32 graphical LCD with rotary encoder, USB and Ethernet ports.
– Remote control via Ethernet via web browser as standard, possible even from mobile phone

DISADVANTAGES
Hardly any

RANGE
It is never easy to predict range. Exact range depends a lot on terrain configuration, type of antenna and especially the location of the antenna, coaxial cable quality and length and of course quality of receivers. Check this link to get a rough idea of factors involved.

WHAT’S INCLUDED?
– CyberMaxFM BE+ transmitter (MPX version, make sure to add DSP stereo and RDS options if you want stereo and RDS)
– An antenna (several choices below)
– 10m of coaxial cable with matching connectors installed

Note: This transmitter ships with different optional antennas:
– Package A: One professional wideband dipole antenna with 10m of CellFlex 1/2″ or equivalent coaxial cable and all connectors
– Package B: Two professional wideband dipole antennas with 2-way splitter with 10m of CellFlex 1/2″ or equivalent coaxial cable and all connectors
– Package C: Four professional wideband dipole antennas with 4-way splitter with 10m of CellFlex 1/2″ or equivalent coaxial cable and all connectors

What parameters can I change via remote control?
Frequency, output power, various alarms, network parameters, time settings, audio input selection and levels, DSP parameter and RDS settings can be changed via Ethernet in web browser. No software installation is needed, just connect your transmitter to local Ethernet and open web browser to access all the settings. Check the manual for more info. Below is a small sample of the interface.

How do I wire up the transmitter, antenna and audio sources?
Look at the image below (click to enlarge) for an example of a nice radio station with some studio items. At the bottom of this page look for the links to other items that you can use to setup your radio station (WHAT ELSE WILL I NEED AND IT WASN’T INCLUDED? and WHAT CAN I USE AS AUDIO SOURCE?).

What is RDS?
Radio Data System, basically it displays station name and sometimes song name and similar information on a compatible radio receiver. Very popular in Europe, less so in the US. Requires connection to a PC at the time of programming, but retains settings even when powered off. RDS requires RDS upgrade option so be sure to add it, if you need it.

IP audio streaming with MP3 playout from USB
This add-on card lets you receive internet audio streams or play MP3 files from USB drive. This is basically industry-standard Barix IP module inside your transmitter. Especially cool is that the stream source often also transmits song name and when this is the case the RDS encoder can also transmit song name and it can be displayed on the LCD. Read the manual to see how this is done.

Need more studio gear?
Need audio processor? Check these.
Need a link from studio to the transmitter site? How about these.

Important: Due to large size and irregular shape of these packages the website often gets shipping cost wrong. For exact shipping cost please contact our sales department, be sure to give them your exact address and they will quote you shipping. It also does not hurt to ask for a special discount.

Also recommended:
We recommend AA-230 ZOOM antenna analyzer for checking SWR of the antennas. Grounding kits can be purchased here, they ensure lightning protection. They should be installed at the antenna (if needed, most dipoles are grounded anyway), at the tower base and at the point of entrance into transmitter building. Also use self-sealing tape which turns into rubber and protects against moisture from entering your connectors and coaxial cable.

WHAT CAN I USE AS AUDIO SOURCE?
– Your PC. Just plug audio cable into your sound card.
– CD player, MP3 player or any other music reproduction system
– Mixing board with microphone and other audio gear

WHAT ELSE WILL I NEED AND IT WASN’T INCLUDED?
– Requires connection to 3-phase mains, the mains cable is not terminated with mains connector.  If your mains can handle all the current on a single phase the three phases can be connected to a single phase. An authorized electrician should be contracted to handle connection to mains.
– Good taste for music and great skill to put together a program that will dazzle your listeners

**For the warranty period of 5 years some conditions apply. Warranty does not cover final transistors and shipping cost, also natural disasters and mishandling are excluded.

(V3 brings Expander functionality which can be used to boost quiet audio. Default setting of 1:1 means expander is disabled, a setting of 1:2 gives maximum boost. This function is great for drive-in cinemas to boost quiet sections a little bit.)

Here's a program to control this unit remotely with a PC(RS232 or USB) for SE+ V3:
