Remote Control Bus Hub
NEW
The Remote Control Bus Hub provides eight parallel ports for the connection of remote control devices
to an Audia® or Nexia® system. Each port can accept multiple remote controls connected in a 5-wire
daisy-chain. A single Hub, connected to a single Audia or Nexia unit, allows multiple branches to be
added to the remote control network. The Remote Control Bus Hub can be used with any combination
of control devices, including Volume 8, Select 8, Volume/Select 8, Logic Box, and Voltage Control Box.
FEATURES
eight parallel ports on 5-wire plug-in barrier-strip connectors
allows multiple daisy-chain branches on a control network
any combination of Audia/Nexia controls on each branch
cable length extended to sum of two longest branches
convenient key-hole mounting (local power not required)
RoHS compliance
covered by Biamp Systems' five-year warranty
ARCHITECTS & ENGINEERS SPECIFICATION
The control bus hub shall provide eight parallel ports, on 5-wire plug-in barrier-strip connectors, for connection of remote control
devices to Audia
branch shall be capable of accepting any combination of Audia/Nexia control types, including Volume 8, Select 8, Volume/Select 8,
Logic Box, and Voltage Control Box. The control bus hub shall allow maximum cable length of 1000' to be determined as only the
sum of the two longest branches in the network. The control bus hub shall include key-hole mounting, and shall require no local
power source. The control bus hub shall be compliant with EU Directive 2002/95/EC, the RoHS directive. Warranty coverage shall
be five years.
The control bus hub shall be a BIAMP Remote Control Bus Hub.
