Safety Information
The Cloud WP-8 contains no active electronics and thus requires no AC or
DC voltage supply. Safety precautions are therefore minimal.
Introduction
The WP-8, part of the Cloud Headphone Distribution System, is a remote
headphone station that connects to an output of either a CAM-16 Audio
Distribution Matrix or a CAS-16 Audio Distribution Sub-Station, using
standard CAT-5 cable. In addition to a stereo headphone socket for
connection of a pair of personal headphones, it has controls allowing a user
to select the music source (from those connected to the CAM-16), and to
adjust the headphone volume. It also provides outputs for a pair of small
loudspeakers; these can also be used to feed the inputs of an external power
amplier or powered speakers. When used in this way, the panel’s controls
also set the source and level for the external equipment.
The WP-8 ts standard UK-style single-gang electrical back boxes, either
surface-mounting or ush-tting. Recommended back box depth is 25 mm.
Two M3.5 x 20 xing screws are supplied with each WP-8 plate.

US Versions:
The WP-8A is electrically and functionally identical, but the faceplate has
different physical dimensions (4.51” x 2.76”) which allows it to be mounted
into a standard single-gang US-style back box (with vertical orientation).
All information in this manual applies equally to both mechanical versions.
