The Broadcast Tools MSRP-3 AES is a three station AES/EBU digital EAS relay/switcher following in the footsteps of the original Multi-Station Relay Panel (MSRP) designed by Broadcast Tools for the Sage ENDEC in 1996, and the Broadcast Tools ADCS-III. The MSRP-3 AES provides additional alert audio distribution and transparent audio interrupt switching for EAS encoders.

Used in conjunction with the single switched AES audio interrupt relay built into the ENDEC or DASDEC, the MSRP-3 AES will provide interrupt switching for four digital audio paths. Each alert insertion can occur simultaneously on one or more station outputs, but alerts can not be overlapped. It features an internal analog to digital converter (ADC) with wordclock input that accepts balanced mono analog audio, or the ADC can be bypassed and switched to an AES digital input. Standard pinout RJ45 station audio input and output jacks make installation with Cat5 or Cat6 patch cables plug and play. Control via RS-232 serial port, TCP/UDP Ethernet port, or contact closure inputs. Includes SPST test and station relay outputs. A dedicated fourth AES output provides encoder audio for additional devices.
