CP8506/AT8801
48V PHANTOM POWER SUPPLIES
Description
The Audio-Technica CP8506 provides
48V phantom power for up to four microphones, while the AT8801 provides 48V
phantom power for a single microphone.
They allow the use of remote-powered
microphones with systems that do not
supply phantom power. They are
line-powered devices. The CP8506
includes an attached 6' grounded line
cord and a power switch with an
associated LED indicator.The AT8801
includes a plug-in power module that
attaches to the electronics module
with a 6' cable.
Each unit features a highly-regulated
power supply which provides a constant
voltage source, even with a heavilyloaded input. The regulator IC is internally
protected to prevent overheating or damage even if shorted. The rugged steel
case is finished in enamel and provides
shielding from electrostatic interference.
The CP8506 and AT8801 will adequately
supply phantom power to the microphones connected to them via XLR-type
connectors; additional phantom power
(from a mixer or other source) is
unnecessary, and is not recommended.
For optimum phantom powering, an
uninterrupted line must exist between
the phantom supply and the microphone;
no filters or transformers should be
present.
