Description
This board is a general purpose audio interface for program feeding or speech communication between modules. When used as audio program feed board there is room for max. two boards placed in positions 21 and 20.
When used for communication between modules each board provides 8 speech channels in a communication ring in a multi-module AlphaCom system. There can be 1 to 3 AGA-board for this purpose in one module, placed in positions 24, 23 and 22.
Easily accessible potentiometers at the front enable sensivity control of the audio channels.
Multi Program Distribution
Each board provides 16 audio inputs for program distribution when used in AlphaCom E20 or E27. There can be 1 or 2 boards in a module placed in positions 20 and 21.
AGA boards can be placed in board position 1- 6 in an E7 exchange, but the number of channels is reduced to 6 on one board: ch. 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14. The program sources are connected to the ‘c’ and ‘d’ terminals on the back plane.
An AGA connection kit 100 9930 300 need to be purchased to connect the audio sources. The kit contains a filter board, a connection board and an interface cable.
Audio Between Modules in Multi-Module Exchange
Each board provides 8 audio channels in a communication ring in AlphaCom E20/E26. In E7, line 1 and 8 are not used
There can be 1-3 boards in each module placed in positions 22, 23 and 24 in E20/E26 or positions 4, 5 and 6 in E7.
The AGA boards must be located in the same positions in the Master and Slave modules.
The Installation set for Multi Module (100 9930 303) has to be purchased.
Audio Distribution in AlphaNet
Each board provides 6 audio channels between the exchanges. There can be any number of AGA boards in each exchange placed in any position. Pos 20-23 are recommended in E26 to avoid modifications of the backplane. Use the same filter board with cable and connection board as ASLT.
