Model MBS1000A

Desktop

Paging Microphone

DESCRIPTION

The Bogen Model MBS1000A is a dual-impedance, uni-directional,
dynamic desktop microphone with a rubberized finish for all industri­al and commercial public address and paging applications. The
MBS1000A has a bottom-mounted slide switch for low- or high­impedance selection.The wide band frequency response is smooth and
peak free, thereby providing a natural, highly-intelligible sound.

The microphone output provides a normally open switch closure pair
that can be used to operate external equipment. When the micro­phone is activated using either the push-to-talk or lift-to-talk functions,
the provided contact closes.The push-to-talk actuator bar includes a
locking feature to allow the mic to remain active for extended periods.
The lift-to-talk feature can be enabled or disabled using a bottom­mounted selector switch.

Four molded, non-skid, non-marring, and permanently resilient "feet"
are located under the cast base.
