4-Wire Talkback Unit
The C1B is a compact battery-powered 4-wire box for headset use only. Selectable operating modes suit various applications in a number of studio and outside broadcast situations where 4-wire communications are used.
- Three user-selectable operating modes:-
- 4-wire mode.
- Interrupted loop-through mode with input monitoring.
- 2-wire Conference mode.
- 9 volt battery powered with very low current drain (2mA).
- Microphone limiter to maintain peak output at +8dBU.
- Auxiliary audio monitoring input on unbalanced 3.5mm jack.
