Description:
- The GS-PASTE 201 is a line powered, heavy duty analogue telephone balancing unit. It allows professional audio equipment such as mixers, talkback systems or headphone circuits to be connected to a traditional analogue telephone line.
- A tone generator has been included to help with line balancing. Once a line is connected the tone can be switched on, so that the R and C can be balanced accordingly. Instructions for this are printed on the side of the unit. Once the best balance is achieved, the tone can be turned off.
- A front panel LED indicates an incoming call. There is also an audible ringer which can be turned off if required.
- A 19 inch rack mount version is also available.
- Inputs: Audio input is line level on a balanced Neutrik XLR. Input level control. Multi coloured LED indicates level sent to the line
- Outputs: Audio output on balance Neutrik XLR. Output level control
- Telco Connections:There is an RJ-11 connector for external handset to allow dialling of outgoing calls. An On/Off Hook switch (with indicator) allows answering of calls when an external telephone is not connected.
- There is also an RJ-11 connector for connection to a normal telephone line. A recessed switch switches RJ-11 telephone line pairs (there are 2 different standards used Worldwide), for worldwide compatibility.
- Dimensions: Maximum Dimensions (excluding belt clip): 153 mm x 103 mm x 45mm
- Weight 415g
- Tested & complies with ETSI ES203021
