Full redundancy – room/top version. Ecreso FM 5-10kW is a fully digital transmitter for analog FM and is the most powerful product in WorldCast Systems’ Ecreso portfolio.
Engineered to meet the needs of the most demanding network operators and stations, it combines reliable performance, high efficiency of up to 76%, and state-of-the-art innovations. Truly revolutionary, the Ecreso 5-10kW has a built-in 1+1 redundancy which ensures it stays on-air with minimal or no power loss.
With the Ecreso FM 5-10kW, broadcasters benefit reduced maintenance thanks to hot swappable power supplies, power amplifiers and fans, as well as a multitude of onboard features such as SmartFM, a patented Artificial Intelligence for FM bringing up to 40% energy cost savings.
This advanced broadcasting solution is the result of decades of experience and a mission to bring to market the best FM transmitters in terms of total cost of ownership and audio quality.

The intrinsic level of redundancy in the 5kW-10kW is similar to a standard 1+1 system with significantly lower costs. Inspired to meet the highest demands for a redundant solution in critical applications, the As Solid As A 1+1 design of the Ecreso FM 5-10kW is the result of intensive R&D developments to:
– Remove the Single Points of Failure or minimize their effects. As an example, Intermediate Power Amplifiers have been completely removed in favour of an industry-proven FM Digital Exciter feeding directly into each Power Amplifier.
– Oversize the critical modules and install redundant components only when oversizing is not possible.
– Hard test the Concept under harsh conditions with the latest quality methods – FMEA, PSA or HALT
By adding this intrinsic redundancy in the Ecreso FM 5/10kW, you do not need to purchase 2 complete 5 or 10kW transmitters plus the control unit & installation cost but ONLY the “As Solid as a 1+1” concept. This way you benefit from the same level of redundancy than a 1+1, while reducing costs.
