A/V connectivity specialist Attero Tech has added the ML1 to its Axiom series of audio extension I/O modules.
Axiom products are simple, flexible, and installation-friendly audio connectivity and audio signal extension solutions for installed audio applications. They are especially recommended for cost-sensitive applications such as education, retail, small hospitality and house of worship.
The new Axiom ML1 provides extension of analogue mic- and line-level audio sources in a single-gang, Decora-style wallplate. Its combo XLR and quarter-inch input connector accepts dynamic microphones, with 40dB of adjustable gain, and offers a fixed attenuator pad for the quarter-inch connector, with +4dBu nominal input level. A 3.5mm jack with -10dBV (consumer) nominal input level features 20dB of adjustable gain and is summed to mono.
Front panel gain knobs are provided for the combo mic input and the 3.5 mm input. Audio signal-level indicator LEDs for each input provide quick feedback for proper input gain adjustments. Selectable sum-to-mono options for both inputs allow two ML1s or an ML1 and another Axiom device to be daisychain connected on a single bus.
Like other Axiom-series audio extension modules, the Axiom ML1 sends mono or stereo analogue audio for up to 100m (total run length) over the Attero Tech Axiom bus, via Cat5 or Cat6 cable, to an Axiom AXP2O expander unit. The AXP2O, in turn, outputs balanced analogue audio on 3-pin depluggable connectors for easy connection to commercial audio equipment. The AXP2O also enables RS-232 control integration for Axiom products featuring control, with initial configuration supported through Attero Tech’s unIFY Control Panel software.
The Axiom ML1 and AXP2O are available immediately.
