Studio Technologies MODEL 46A Dual 2-Wire Analog Audio to 4-Wire Analog Audio Interface
The Studio-Tech Model 46A is designed to interface 2-wire full-duplex party-line (PL) intercom circuits with 4-wire audio circuits associated with matrix intercom systems. Other specialized audio system interfacing applications can also be supported. The Model 46A provides two independent full-featured 2-channel interfaces. Each interface contains two hybrid circuits which include automatic nulling capability.
Key Features
- Two 2-channel party-line intercom interfaces
- Four analog hybrids with auto null capability
- Input and output level metering
- Excellent audio quality
- Integrated intercom power sources
- Standard audio connectors
- Transformer-coupled 4-wire inputs and outputs
- Universal input mains powered
