SP107-101
Surface-mount AV interconnect plate
Designed for installation into tables, podiums and other AV
furniture, the new SP107-101 provides surface level connection points
for a variety of audio and video inputs, providing an easy and
convenient means of patching a laptop computer or other AV equipment on
the surface to a presentation system's connections beneath the furniture
or in another room. Featuring a black painted finish that mounts flush
with the surface, it offers interconnections for the most frequently
used AV presentation inputs, including AC power, computer audio, video,
Network and USB. Computer connections include a 15-pin HD female RGBHV
video port, a 3.5 mm female stereo audio jack, and an HDMI Digital Video
input. Video connections include an RCA Composite Video input, a 4-pin
Mini Din S-Video input, plus left and right female RCA audio inputs.
This versatile interconnect system includes both a female RJ-45 Network
connector as well as a standard USB Type-A port.
Broadcast
Devices REM-100
Remote lighted pushbutton panel
An eight-channel wired remote control system that uses a DIN
rail-mounted series of electronics, this device allows control of up to
eight relay closures in two directions over a single pair of wires. A
single-pole switch closes a relay at the other end in both directions.
Because the REM-8 system uses serial communications, one unit can act as
a master to up to 64 slave units. Serial communications options include
RS-485, CAN Bus or USB interface to a PC. When connected to a PC via a
USB port, a single local REM-100 can communicate to up to 64 REM-100
modules. A multi-location remote control system can be configured
quickly as only a single pair is needed to communicate along the REM-100
network. Each module has eight control inputs and eight relays so
duplicate functions can be mirrored if required. Each module has a set
of local and remote status indicators so that when a switch is closed in
the remote location positive verification can be made at the other
location.

Sound Prestige Series
Power conditioners and voltage regulators
The Prestige Series includes the P-1800 PF R power conditioner,
P-1800 AR voltage regulator, and P-1400 AR E export voltage regulator.
The P-1800 PF R utilizes Furman's Power Factor and Clear Tone
Technologies, providing audio amplifiers with a consistent sound. The
P-1800 PF R is also ideal for in-studio setups that use powered monitors
for playback of recorded material. Furman's Power Factor Technology
reduces ac line impedance by providing a 45-A peak current reservoir.
Clear Tone Technology adds an additional level of linear filtration for
a lower noise floor. The P-1800 AR provides consistent 120V output from
input voltages ranging from 97V to 137Vac. Furman's True RMS Auto
Regulation Technology utilizes an ultra-low noise,
microprocessor-controlled eight-tap toroidal autoformer, assuring quiet
operation for critical listening and recording applications with minimal
leakage of stray magnetic fields. The P-1800 AR features a switchable
front panel digital voltmeter/ammeter with color-coded voltage range
indicator for comprehensive power monitoring. The P-1400 AR E provides
all of the technology of the P-1800 AR to overseas markets.
