DESCRIPTION
The Clear-Com KB-702 is a two-channel speaker station ideal for theatre, live
performances, industrial applications, and small TV facilities. It features
excellent speech intelligibility even in high-noise environments and can be
tailored to your needs through its programmable options.
In addition, the Clear-Com KB-702GM contains a jack for an optional
Clear-Com gooseneck panel microphone and a close-in, voice-controlled
circuit (VOX). This circuit allows automatic, alternate dipping of the panel
microphone and the speaker in response to conversation.
Selectable two-channel talking and/or listening allows the operator to
communicate on either of the intercom channels. The dual-action talk button
is electronic momentary or latching. Monitoring can be done through the
headset, the integral speaker, or both at once. The KB-702 offers both visual
and audible call signaling to attract the attention of operators. The remote mic
kill (RMK) feature on main stations will turn off any open mics on the
KB-702.
A balanced program input allows the monitoring of external audio using the
headset or speaker. This program input can also be used as a paging function.
The KB-702 speaker station accepts dynamic headsets. A sidetone control
allows the operator to vary the level of his/her own voice as heard in the
headset and speaker.
The integral speaker can be turned on or off by a convenient front panel
switch. An automatic speaker dipping circuit will lower the level of the
speaker whenever the talk button is activated. This feature helps minimize
acoustical feedback.
The KB-702 receives power from the Clear-Com intercom line. The unit
mounts either in a standard four-gang electrical outlet box or in an optional
Clear-Com four-gang V-box. The extra-thick front panel and compact
surface-mount circuitry maintains legendary Clear-Com ruggedness. The two
intercom channels connect to a plug-on screw terminal strip. Male and female
