Details
Controls: front panel; remote control via RS232/USB/Ethernet
I/O: 1x XLR analog stereo in (24-bit, -4 to +21dBu, >10kΩ), 1x XLR analog stereo out (24-bit, <50Ω); AES/EBU digital I/O (IEC958 prof.); ISDN (RJ45 S0, RJ11 U, up to 3 interfaces optional); Ethernet 10/100Base-T (2nd optional); RS232 and USB for remote control; X.21/V.35 serial interface; optional POTS interface and GPI
Notable use: Rack-mount hardware codec for live contribution, STL, and satellite-uplink redundancy over IP, ISDN, or X.21/V.35; designed by Orban's German engineering team; natural successor to the OPTICODEC 7400/7200 line
Notes: FLAG: classified as Install Processor for catalog consistency, though functionally this is a contribution/STL audio codec (hardware Opticodec line), not a loudness/multiband broadcast processor like the OPTIMOD models — flagged as a different product function grouped under the same required device_class. Power spec states "max. 25 VA" (apparent power), not confirmed real watts, so power_watts left blank rather than converted/guessed. Price and year introduced not published — left blank. Pure-software Opticodec-PC variants (e.g. Opticodec-PC 1010) excluded per software-exclusion rule; only the 7600 hardware unit included.
