Biamp Tesira / Tesira Control
Biamp Tesira is a networked DSP platform for professional audio processing: mixing, EQ, feedback suppression, acoustic echo cancellation, and conferencing signal-chain management. In Clearport terms, separate three things that often get blurred together: Tesira software/device communication and discovery, Tesira external control via TTP, and Tesira-originated or tunneled third-party control via NCS / Control Tunneling. TTP is not carried on the proprietary 61451 software/device port; third-party TTP control normally uses enabled SSH, enabled Telnet, or serial access to the Tesira TTP server. Tesira audio transport (AVB, Dante, AES67, SIP/RTP) remains a separate design conversation, and NCS ports must be taken from the actual Tesira file rather than guessed from the manufacturer name.
Scope: Biamp Tesira / Tesira Control — select the deployed product/version; optional services require separate selection.
