WorldCast Systems Harness Solar Power for FM Broadcasting

  Apr 5, 2017

Miami, FL- April 5th 2017-   WorldCast Systems will officially launch a new solar-powered FM retransmitter at NAB 2017. Offering hybrid AC power, the SOLAR FM can broadcast for up to 10 hours over 10km on solar power alone.

Designed for areas with limited electrical infrastructure or for temporary installations, the SOLAR FM retransmitter can receive audio from a number of different sources such as its inbuilt satellite and FM receivers or analog and AES inputs. A dedicated smartphone app provides full configuration capabilities and also enables daily scheduling of operations to make best use of solar power when available and rely on the AC connection, when not.

Designed to be versatile, easy to mount, and highly resilient when operating in difficult environments, the SOLAR FM is supplied as a turnkey system with solar panel, FM antennas, satellite dish or antenna and the robust FM transmitter. A NiMH battery and built-in smart battery management system help optimize the amount of time a broadcaster can stay on air.

The Solar FM will be showcased on the WorldCast Systems’ booth, N8924 at NAB 2017.
