Line Conditioner

The Line Conditioner provides A/V components with clean and reliable AC power. The conditioner features an isolated transformer that regenerates the AC current while balanced double L filtration circuitry eliminates EMI/RFI noise and other contaminates that could be detrimental to performance. Protect and disconnect circuitry monitors the AC line in case of occurrences of overvoltage or undervoltage. The conditioner is also designed to disconnect the AC power to the connected equipment automatically in the event of a power surge, such as from lightning.

For classroom, lecture hall, retail kiosk, hotel, convention, and trade-show applications, the AVDA-8 distributes a single audio/video source to eight outputs and has linking capabilities for as many as 64 outputs. Transmitting up to 2,200 feet through a building's unshielded twisted pair wiring architecture, the AVDA-8 supports up to two channels of audio and two channels of color video, including S-video, and is compatible with the V1 and V1-ST video baluns, as well as the V1A2, V2A2, and SVA2 audio/video baluns. Audio/video baluns are a solution for signal transmission using a building's existing structured wiring system for audio and visual wiring needs. While fulfilling audio/video requirements in office, teleconferencing, and security applications, baluns eliminate setup time while offering flexibility.
