\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWe are very happy to share that our MPX-2c<\/strong> received a Best of Show Award at NAB 2026<\/strong>.

The award recognizes the new capability we showcased at NAB this year: the MPX-2c can now combine an HD Radio\u00ae E2X<\/strong> signal from any Exporter with an analog or digital MPX signal into one synchronized transport stream<\/strong>.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\n\t\t\tWhat is new\n\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe MPX-2c itself is already an established product in the 2wcom portfolio. What is new is the capability shown at NAB.

Instead of transporting HD and FM separately, both signals can now travel together in one stream and remain aligned all the way to the transmitter. This simplifies the signal path and gives broadcasters a cleaner and easier way to handle hybrid radio distribution.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\n\t\t\tLive at NAB: Flensburg to California\n\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTo show this in practice, we set up a live demo at NAB 2026.

A combined FM + HD stream was sent from Flensburg, Germany to California, USA<\/strong>, covering more than 5,000 miles<\/strong>. Even over that distance, the signals stayed synchronized with SFN-level precision and without audible diversity delay.

For us, this was the right way to show that the capability is not just a feature on paper, but something that works in a real-world setup.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\n\t\t\tWhy it matters\n\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tFor broadcasters, this new capability means that HD and FM no longer need to be handled as separate paths.

The MPX-2c allows both to be transported together in one synchronized stream, supports analog and digital MPX, and works with any HD Radio\u00ae Exporter. It also supports compressed and uncompressed MPX transport, giving broadcasters flexibility depending on network conditions and available bandwidth.

The result is a simpler and more robust approach to hybrid radio distribution.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\n\t\t\tThank you\n\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tA big thank you to our team and everyone involved in the project! And thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth at NAB, took a closer look at the demo, and spent time with the team in Las Vegas.

And of course, thank you as well to the organizers and judges of the Best of Show Awards.

If you missed us at NAB but would like to learn more about the MPX-2c and its new synchronized FM + HD transport capability, feel free to contact us or request an online demo.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
