XLR cable connector
The XX-HD Series is a heavy-duty XLR cable connector designed specifically for outdoor use. Equipped with hybrid metal/rubber design, the new XX-HD Series is both dust and water protected, meeting the requirements of an IP67 rating, by mating it with the related XX-HD cable connector or Neutrik’s MPR-HD chassis connector. The Series includes a 3-pole female XLR connector with optional black housing as well as a 3-pole male XLR connector with optional black housing. The XX-HD connector features a rubber sealing jacket assembled during the termination of the connector that provides dust and water protection, meeting an IP67 rating requirement.

Multi-studio phone system
Telos VX shares phone lines across a number of studios using standard IP technology. It is a scalable system that provides a solution for stations with modest needs, while being able to grow to support facilities that have large numbers of Telco lines and studios. It is compatible with a wide variety of VoIP gateways and PBXs. Gateways are available for POTS, T1/E1, and both BRI and PRI ISDN. These can be rack-mount units that support large numbers of connections or low-cost desktop boxes that interface a few POTS lines. Since SIP provides a rich control interface, it would be possible to easily transfer calls between the office and studio systems. The VX Engine is a 2RU device providing call control and audio processing. There is a hybrid per line, allowing multiple calls to be conferenced and aired simultaneously with excellent quality. The VX Director Phone has two large, high-contrast color LCD panels that provide line status, detailed caller information and fader assignments.

AC voltage regulators
The BVR Series offers a compact AVR package. With a new (patent-pending), solid-state step regulating design that eliminates full load carrying transformers and servo-motor control schemes, the BVR is up to 40 percent lighter than other devices being offered. The input range is the range of input voltages over which the unit will maintain constant output voltage. BVR models are offered in two standard ranges – narrow and wide range to accommodate various installation needs (source stability and critical load requirements) as well as site location. The power that must be corrected is greater for wide range units than narrow range units.

IP addressable power conditioners
SX1120iP is the first in a series of IP addressable power conditioners. Designed as a 20-amp, 1RU unit with eight individually controllable outlets, it can be configured and managed via a Web browser to control and monitor individual outlets online. It monitors outlet status, current draw, power consumption and rack temperature. E-mail notifications can be sent based on certain conditions and thresholds. The SX1120iP features Advanced Series Mode surge elimination, Impedance Tolerant EMI/RFI filtering, SurgeX ICE Inrush Current Elimination and COUVS Catastrophic Over/Under Voltage Shutdown.

Mobile transmitter
The MRI 20 DIG + TH is made of a four-audio-channel mixer and an externally synthesized FM transmitter that can provide 20W RF output signal (175 to 500MHz) or 10W RF output signal (510 to 980MHz). The equipment includes an internal 12Vdc battery, which provides large autonomy, and it can also work with an external dc battery and with ac power supply between 110 and 220Vac. On its LCD display, transmission parameters like forward power, reflected power and modulation level between 175 and 980MHz in 20MHz sub-bands and 25kHz steps can be visualized. The digital frequency tuning in the front panel (transmitter and receiver) allows changing the transmitting frequency in case of interferences.

Digital COFDM and analog transmissions converter
Available in the 2.0-2.7GHz band as well as the UHF bands (450-850MHz), Microwave Service Company's block down converters are designed to convert digital COFDM and analog transmissions to their respective signal range. The converter is a single conversion BDC with low phase noise and high linearity. Its front end features an LNA and ceramic filter that delivers a 3.5dB noise figure with a minimum conversion gain of 24dB. The UHF model also delivers a 3.5dB noise figure with an overall typical conversion gain of 24dB.

The smallest Xone mixer to date, the Xone:22 is equipped with Allen & Heath’s characteristic sound and build quality, plus professional-grade features. At the heart of the feature set is a light version of the analog Voltage Control Filter (VCF) system offering low-pass and high-pass filters, frequency sweep and mild-to-wild resonance control. There is also a soft-switched effects loop to bring in external effects, which are routed back in through the filter system. The new mixer has two stereo channels with dual phono/line inputs, and the phono inputs can be configured to line if no RIAA (vinyl) sources are in use.
