AIP-GATE | IP Audio Gateway & Logic Controller

The intelligent bridge for your IP PA system, providing seamless integration between physical controls and network audio management.

The AIP-GATE is a versatile control interface designed to act as the "brain" for logic-based operations within the Fonestar AIP ecosystem. Rather than processing audio signals directly, the AIP-GATE focuses on the synchronization of external events—such as switches, sensors, or alarms—with your network audio distribution, ensuring your system reacts instantly to real-world inputs.

Key Features

Advanced Logic Integration: Features 4 isolated inputs and 4 relay outputs to bridge the gap between physical infrastructure and IP software.

Event-Driven Automation: Trigger zone-specific announcements, playlist changes, or system alerts via contact closures from fire panels, PIR sensors, or buttons.

Remote Device Control: Use the relay outputs to remotely activate external hardware, such as amplifiers, visual strobe lights, or electronic door locks.

Seamless Ecosystem Synergy: Works in perfect tandem with AIP-STREAMER and AIP-PLAYER units to create a fully responsive, automated environment.

Industrial Reliability: Built for 24/7 mission-critical applications with a compact form factor that fits easily into standard rack shelves.

Why Choose the AIP-GATE?

Total System Automation

The AIP-GATE allows your PA system to think for itself. By connecting external sensors, you can automate your facility's audio—playing a "Welcome" message when a door opens or an "Emergency" broadcast when a smoke detector is triggered.

Remote Hardware Management

Save energy and extend the life of your equipment. Use the AIP-GATE’s relay outputs to power on your professional amplifiers only when a stream is active, and power them down during off-hours, all managed over the network.

Complex Scenario Mapping

Through the AIP-Management software, you can map the 4 inputs to perform complex tasks, such as muting background music in specific zones while simultaneously activating a high-priority paging stream in others.
