SYSTEM 10K Modular Amplifier Rack System
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The System 10K Modular Amplifier System is a flexible and efficient high
performance audio distribution system. The System 10K combines up to ten
amplifier modules with two (redundant) power supplies in a 5-1/4" high (3RU) by
19" wide Eurocard specification enclosure that is 14-1/2" deep. All modules plug
in from the front, are hot-swappable, are secured with captive hardware and
present an attractive and safe closed front panel. Aluminum extrusion
construction makes a strong and rugged enclosure and allows free convection for
vertical airflow. The basic frame provides power bussing for all positions.
Individual modules are supplied with mating connector assemblies which mount
on the rear of the card frame and plug into the power distribution bus. Connector
assemblies provide barrier block connections with fan-out strips for studio wiring.
Alternate insulation displacement, mass termination connector systems allow
simple push-on audio connections.
A wide variety of available interchangeable plug-in modules allow an optimum
system to be initially assembled at reasonable cost and expanded and upgraded
as future requirements necessitate. A partial listing of available SYS10K modules
follows. Consult factory for latest information.
DA100
A basic one-input, six-output Distribution Amplifier--A single power stage is split
into six active balanced outputs at +22dBm each. Split and bypassed build-out
resistors give protection against short circuits and RF. Balanced bridging input.
Single front-panel level control sets all outputs. Headphone monitor jack.
MDA100
Metered 1X6 Distribution Amplifier--Adds an LED Bargraph VU Meter to the
basic amplifier described above. Measures -21 to +6 VU with 0 VU adjustable for
outputs from 0 to +18dBm. Signal Alarm indicator and output warns of dead
channel.
CDA100
Compressing 1X6 Distribution Amplifier--Adds a Gated Compressor to the
MDA100. The compressor operates on inputs above -30dBm. Compression
Slope adjustable up to 20:1. Input level sensor gates compressor gain recovery
