MoIN

Multimedia over IP Network Software​​

What is MoIN?

MoIN is our Audio over IP software for encoding, decoding, and transcoding multiple channels at once. Built in the real north of Germany, it combines clean engineering with the reliablility you need to keep audio moving.

The name? No coincedence. “Moin” is the Northern German way to say hello – morning, noon or night. And just like the greeting, MoIN talks to (almost) everyone.

With broad codec support out of the box and high interoperability at its core, MoIN fits right into your existing workflow and gives you the flexibility to build the audio chain that works for you.

Why MoIN?

MoIN – Multimedia over IP Network  is a software solution for professional audio contribution and distribution based on the proven broadcast technology of our IP-4c.

Flexibility
Seamlessly integrate into existing infrastructures with scalable number of channels, flexible activation of channels and additional features according to your needs.

Interoperability
Support of common standards and protocols ensuring interconnectivity with other vendors and combination with 2wcom hardware products.

Reliability
