If the Techconnect Amplifier is installed the amplifier power supply can be housed in the SP-5000 chassis, or externally if preferred. & of course, the Techconnect Amplifier comes with a remote control for convenience. Architectural Design An attractive curved chassis & grille compliment the finish of an interactive whiteboard or flat panel installation. Audio-Over-USB The SP-5000 has an integrated circuit which decodes audio received via USB (Universal Serial Bus) & sends the analogue audio signal to an installed Techconnect Amplifier or an external amplifier. Simply route the USB (Universal Serial Bus) from the PC to the loudspeakers. The PC will recognise them as an audio output device. The decoder then has a USB (Universal Serial Bus) output which routes to the interactive whiteboard. When connecting USB (Universal Serial Bus) to an interactive whiteboard the decoder must be powered. Power can be shared with a Techconnect Amplifier power supply if installed, or if not the Techconnect Control spare power supply (1872512) is available. Flexible Cable Routing If used as a connectivity faceplate cables plugged in to the faceplate can either be routed outward, or can be routed downward so they are hidden behind the grille. Easy-fit bracket A simple bracket is provided for attachment to the wall with no fuss. To install just clip the modules into place, plug the cables into the rear, clip the rear cover on, & hang on the brackets.
