Product Description
The AMP-450BP is a four-channel PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at Class 4, 30W)
conferencing amplier for use in Tesira®systems. Suitable for air handling
spaces, the amplier is designed to be mounted directly to the back of a
Desono™ C-IC6 loudspeaker, minimizing cabling requirements.
Each AMP-450BP comes with an optional enclosure to protect electrical
connections and comply with typical code requirements for above-ceiling
installations. The AMP-450BP includes an internal limiter, and is capable of
providing 3 watts of continuous power to all four channels.
The Tesira AMP-450BP is also capable of operating in a burst mode to
handle peak signals, providing up to 50 watts (4Ω load) or 30 watts (8Ω
load) per channel. The output channels are software congurable, including
selectable power versus channel count.
The amplier serves as a dedicated endpoint in a Tesira system, making
installations easier to design, support, and maintain. The AMP-450BP is ideal
for TesiraFORTÉ®-equipped conference rooms or other applications where
sound reinforcement is needed.
