These are a range of audio 'input plates' which fit in a UK standard (BS1363/BS4662), 25mm deep, single or dual-gang, electrical back-box. Designed to increase the audio input capability of an induction loop system, they cover most common variants of audio connector as well as inbuilt microphone. When installed at the most convenient point of an installation. mounted on wall, ceiling and desk, they overcome the need for long and potentially hazardous microphone and audio leads.

Each plate has a built-in mixer, pre-amplifier, input level control and a balanced output. They work by mixing the signals from various audio input sources into one balanced line level signal which can then be fed into the line input, of a compatible amplifier. Typically, 'up to ten Outreach plates (any mix) can be daisy-chained to one balanced line level input with cable lengths of up to 100m easily achievable using standard two-pair audio cable with no recognisable degradation of audio signal quality.'

Two further plates are available, a 'Balanced Line Output Plate' to feed third-party audio equipment and the The 'Afils Active' indicator plate.

Each Outreach plate requires four wires; two balanced line (A +, A –), one ground (0V) and one power connection. Power source: 12 to 37V DC, regulated, 6 to 11mA. Many Signet AFILS loop amplifiers are fitted with an Outreach socket, but if the Outreach system is to be used with third party equipment which does not have a suitable DC power an external supply may be used, such as the APV Outreach plate, which is mounted in a dual-gang plate to fit UK standard back boxes, and requiring AC mains wiring, so should be installed by a suitably competent technician.

Specifications for the Outreach chain connections:

Line inputs: Balanced/unbalanced, 0.775Vrms (0dBu), 10kohms. Line outputs: Balanced, 0.775Vrms (0dBu) + 6dB (overload), less than 100 ohms. Response: 90Hz to 20kHz. Insertion loss/gain: Less than +/- 0.05dB. 'Insertion signal to noise ratio': '79dB THD + noise: 0.07%'.

Output plates


APXO XLR 3 Pin Balanced Line Output Plate

Provides 'an adjustable balanced line output (+12B max.) on a standard 3 pin male XLR connector. Typically used to connect an Outreach chain to third-party audio equipment such as conventional amplifiers.' Maximum XLR output signal level: +12dBu, balanced. Noise: -95dB. Output level control: 8to +12dB. Distortion: Better than 0.01%THD + noise.


API 'AFILS ACTIVE' PLATE

Includes 'two ultra-bright LEDs in a translucent diffuser overprinted with the AFILS 'ear' symbol. The LEDs illuminate when the Outreach network is powered to indicate that an AFILS system is installed.'
