Broadcast equipment manufacturer Comrex, which debuted its dualine hybrid, VH2, at NAB this year, is now shipping the product.

This device, traditionally called a Hybrid, filters, separates and provides gain adjustment and call control to more easily allow for recording or broadcasting “phoners”.

VH2 easily interfaces two VoIP lines to studio audio gear for individual broadcast or flawless conferencing. 

It prevents echo and distortion, and automatically adjusts caller audio to a uniform level to produce a clean and clear result. 

Compatible with many VoIP PBX systems, VH2 uses VoIP phone lines, which saves money for users and increases functionality. 

“This is a product our customers have been requesting for years, and we’re excited to finally release it,” said Tom Hartnett, Technical Director for Comrex. “As traditional phone lines are phased out and major markets switch to VoIP systems, stations need hybrids that are compatible with the new technology.”
