This listing is for D-TPS1A only. Use description below as a
general reference.
The D SERIES-TPS1A modules
are single-pair audio sending modules compatible with RDL Format-A twisted pair
products. These modules are designed to be mounted in wall boxes, cabinets or other
enclosures that allow users to connect audio sources. The -TPS1A models mount in RDL
WB-1U and WB-2U wall boxes, or in standard U.S. electrical boxes. The D-TPS1A
features a white front-panel laminate with gray lettering that matches RDL Decora©-
style remote controls. The DB-TPS1A features a black front-panel laminate. The DS-
TPS1A is constructed of stainless steel to coordinate with RDL Decora-style
stainless steel remote controls in commercial/industrial installations.
APPLICATION: The D SERIES-TPS1A modules feature an XLR microphone input. The module
provides IEC 24 V phantom and accepts input signals from both dynamic and condenser
microphones. The input signal is amplified using a studio-quality microphone
preamplifier optimized for normal operating levels. The rear-panel GAIN switch is
normally set by the installer for NORM (normal) gain. If consistently low mic levels
are expected, this switch may be set to the HIGH gain position. The pre-amplified
microphone source is routed to one output cable pair selected during installation
using a rear-panel switch.
These modules drive only one cable pair,
therefore they accept signals and power from other mic-level or line-level Format-A
senders. The D SERIES-TPS1A modules have a second RJ45 jack for these input cables.
Two other single-pair senders may be chained with the -TPS1A, or a single two-pair
sender may be connected. If three single-pair senders are connected together, each
sender must feed a different pair: A, B or C. The -TPS1A must be set to feed pair A
if it is connected together with an RDL two-pair sender that feeds stereo audio on
pairs B and C. The power pair and all three audio pairs are fed through both rear-
panel RJ45 jacks.
The D SERIES-TPS1A may be powered directly from a 24 Vdc
power supply using the rear-panel detachable terminal block. Local power connected
to the module is also fed to all connected remote modules. The -TPS1A may be
remotely powered through the twisted pair cable from any other module, signal
distributor or RDL power inserter connected to the same twisted pair cable. Module
power is indicated by a front-panel LED.
RDL FORMAT-A features superior
audio performance that rivals or exceeds shielded wiring. Design simplicity, ease of
installation, unsurpassed flexibility, automatic fused power, exceptional hum
rejection, low noise, and low distortion provide designers and installers the
optimum choice in economical twisted pair products.
