OPTIMOD-FM 5300
OPTIMOD-FM is Orban's new, affordably-priced processor with many of the sound processing previously available only features that were to OPTIMOD-FM 8400 and 8300 owners. 2

3. 4/2/2017 1:08 AM
OPTIMOD-FM 5300
The 8400 has developed a reputation as the FM processor that provides the best consistency and cleanest speech. The 5300 reflects this sonic legacy. 3

4. OPTIMOD-FM 5300 User-Friendly Interface

OPTIMOD-FM 5300
User-Friendly Interface
An LCD and full-time LED meters make setup, adjustment and programming of OPTIMOD-FM 5300 easy — you can always see the metering while you’re adjusting the processor. 4

5. 4/2/2017 1:08 AM
OPTIMOD-FM 5300
Navigation is by dedicated buttons, soft buttons (whose function is context-sensitive), and a large rotary knob.
The LEDs show all metering functions of the processing structure (Two-Band or Five-Band) in use. 5

6. OPTIMOD-FM 5300 Absolute Control of Peak Modulation
4/2/2017 1:08 AM
OPTIMOD-FM 5300
Absolute Control of Peak Modulation
Provides universal transmitter protection and audio processing for FM broadcast.
Provides pre-emphasis limiting for the two standard pre-emphasis curves of 50 s and 75 s. 6

7. 4/2/2017 1:08 AM
OPTIMOD-FM 5300
Achieves extremely tight peak control at all its outputs — analog left/right, AES/EBU left/right, and composite baseband.
By integrating the stereo encoder with the audio processing, the 5300 eliminates the overshoot problems that waste valuable modulation in traditional external encoders. 7

8. OPTIMOD-FM 5300 Flexible Configuration
4/2/2017 1:08 AM
OPTIMOD-FM 5300
Flexible Configuration
Includes analog and AES/EBU digital inputs and outputs. Both digital input and digital output are equipped with sample-rate converters and can operate at 32, 44.1, 48, 88.2 and 96 kHz sample-rates.
The pre-emphasis status and output levels are separately adjustable for the analog and digital outputs. 8

9. OPTIMOD-FM 5300 Flexible Configuration
4/2/2017 1:08 AM
OPTIMOD-FM 5300
Flexible Configuration
Internal, DSP-based stereo encoder (with a patented “half-cosine interpolation” composite limiter operating at 512 kHz sample-rate) to generate the pilot tone stereo baseband signal and control its peak level. 9

10. 4/2/2017 1:08 AM
OPTIMOD-FM 5300
Two independent composite baseband outputs with digitally programmable output levels.
Two sub-carrier inputs that are mixed with the output of OPTIMOD-FM’s stereo encoder before application to the composite output connectors. SCA1 has internal sensitivity trim; sensitivity trim available for SCA2 by special order. 10

11. 4/2/2017 1:08 AM
OPTIMOD-FM 5300
Precisely controls the audio bandwidth to 15 kHz. This prevents overshoots in uncompressed digital links operating at a 32 kHz sample-rate and prevents interference to the pilot tone and RDS (or RBDS) sub-carrier.
Defeatable multiplex power limiter that controls the multiplex power to ITU-R BS412 standards. 11

12. 4/2/2017 1:08 AM
OPTIMOD-FM 5300
Adaptability through Multiple Audio Processing Structures
5300 features three processing structures:
Optimum Five-Band (or “Multiband”; 15 ms delay) for a consistent, “processed” sound, free from undesirable side effects, 12

13. 4/2/2017 1:08 AM
OPTIMOD-FM 5300
Low-Latency Five-Band (5 ms delay) for environments where talent monitors live off-air and they object to the delay of Optimum Five-Band,
and Two-Band for a transparent sound that preserves the frequency balance of the original program material. 13

14. OPTIMOD-FM 5300 Controllable
4/2/2017 1:08 AM
OPTIMOD-FM 5300
Controllable
5300 can be remote-controlled by 5-12 V pulses applied to eight programmable, optically isolated “General-Purpose Interface” (GPI) ports.
5300 PC Remote software is a scalable graphical application that runs under Windows 2000 and XP. It communicates with a given 8300 via TCP/IP over modem, direct serial, and Ethernet connections.
5300's software can be upgraded remotely through its serial port or Ethernet port, or locally (by connecting a Windows® computer to its serial port through the supplied null modem cable) and running Orban-supplied downloadable upgrade software. 14
