Specialized Telephone Input

The TPU-Series’ 600-ohm transformer bal-
anced input is perfectly suited to connect to
paging ports and paging adapters such as
Bogen’s TAMB2. Here are a few specially
designed features:

• The background music will mute when-

ever paging activity is present on the

telephone input, even if control contacts
are not available. (Separate mute control
contacts are also available.)

• To avoid problems with noise on the lines

falsely muting the background music, a
built-in VOX threshold control (not on

TPU15A) lets you decide what’s a real

signal and what’s noise.

• Because not everyone speaks at the same

level, the Automatic Level Control

feature keeps loud voices from booming

out of the paging system’s speakers.

Audio Enhancement

Crisp, clean, intelligible sound is the goal of
every paging system. The audio enhance-
ment circuit adds back the high frequency
harmonics that are lost through the hand-
sets and speakers. With one simple control,
you can adjust the amount of high fre-
quency content the audio enhancement cir-
cuit adds back until optimum intelligibility
is reached.

Variable Music Mute

Add some polish to announcements by
using the TPU’s built-in variable mute fea-
ture. Variable mute allows you to control the
level of the music heard in the background
during a page. It’s fully adjustable from no
muting of music to full suppression of
music. The TPU also gracefully fades the
muted music back in after the page is fin-
ished for a smooth, professional sound (not
available on TPU15A).

Bridging

Bridging two TPU amplifiers permits them
to be used in tandem with one another to
increase the total output power of the sys-
tem, thereby permitting additional speak-
ers to be added. For example, when two
250-watt amplifiers are bridged, the total
output capacity of the system is 500 watts.
Also, both amplifiers will receive the same
input signal, amplify it, and deliver it to the
speaker loads connected to each
amplifier (not available on TPU15A).

Bogen’s TPU-Series of amplifiers are the ideal choice within the telephone paging industry.
With five models to choose from, ranging in power from 15 watts to 250 watts, each model
provides signal-activated, automatic muting of background music during a telephone page,
and gradual return of music following a page.
