VX Engine
VX Enterprise and Prime+ are 1RU rack-mount appliances with two Gigabit Ethernet ports and dual-redundant power supplies. VXs is a container-based solution that runs on your own server or in the cloud. VX systems are web-based, so remote control and configuration are easy—engineers can work from any place they can get online.
You’ll notice no audio I/O or telco ports on VX Engines themselves; that’s because all I/O is handled via Ethernet. The AoIP network supports a wide variety of peripherals such as Axia audio consoles, AES67 audio devices, VSet phones, call management software, console-integrated controllers, and more. VoIP services connect through a dedicated WAN Ethernet jack for routing simplicity and easy maintenance.
Dual VX Engines can be configured in a primary/backup scenario for complete redundancy.
VSet Phones
VSet phones can work like a traditional Telos controller, with calls being selected, held, and dropped in the way to which operators have grown accustomed. But because the VX system is so powerful, it unlocks much more functionality: You can spread multiple calls over several faders, transfer calls, switch Shows, enable Auto-Hold, and more.
The LCD delivers detailed line status, caller information, caller ID, time ringing-in or on-hold, and even caller comments entered in screening software applications. Status Symbols help talent run tight, mistake-free shows. Each VSet phone has its own web server for easy remote configuration and software upgrades. A single Ethernet connection supplies IP connectivity and Power over Ethernet.
VSet12
The VSet12 is a 12-line IP-based controller for the VX featuring a display that provides line status and caller information.
VSet6
VSet6 is a 6-line phone controller for VX. With the same capabilities as the VSet12 but half the lines, it’s excellent for smaller or secondary studios.

Control
On-Console Control
Talent can take control of phones without ever having to divert their attention from the board with the Axia Console Controller, which provides the ideal way to integrate broadcast phones into the on-air console—the control center of every studio. VX systems connect directly to Axia Quasar, Fusion, Element, iQx, iQ, and Radius mixing consoles. Use Axia Pathfinder Core PRO to add console control to the iQs virtual console.
You can program the rotary Options Control knobs to trim source or fader gain when turned, and alphanumeric channel displays give complete information on source assignment, channel options, and more.\
VSet Call Controller
Want in-console control of your VX system but don’t have an Axia mixing console? No problem—Telos provides VSet Console Controller electronics packages, which may be fitted to your console using panels supplied by your OEM console provider or preferred third-party fabricator.
VSet Desktop Controller
The Telos VSet Desktop Controller with visual line-status indicators provides a simplified hardware interface for operators and talent to manage a fast-paced and error-free talk show. It provides single-press control of up to 12 lines and two channels, freeing users to focus on their content while quickly taking, Drop, Hold, Transfer, and dial calls.
Interfaces
Telos Alliance xNode Audio Interfaces
Telos Alliance xNodes let you connect VX to any non-networked radio console or other broadcast equipment, using standard analog or AES3 I/O. A GPIO xNode provides control logic where needed. The Telos Alliance Mixed Signal xNode provides analog, AES3, and GPIO interfaces to cover all your bases.
Call Management Software
Since we introduced the VX product family more than a decade ago, Livewire partners have developed incredible call management software and mobile apps designed specifically to tap into the power of VX VoIP systems. Each of these free and paid software packages has unique features to suit many common workflows, and some include additional features such as prize management and social media integration. Please visit the Telos Alliance website to learn more about the options available.\
Use with Axia Pathfinder Core PRO
For more custom needs, Axia Pathfinder Core PRO can monitor, control, and display all aspects of your VX system. This enables customized solutions such as drag-and-drop construction of custom control panels, timed Show changes based on studio schedules, or even API translation between third-party systems to display caller information or control lines. The possibilities are endless.
