NPA100DA
Quick Reference Guide
01
Our NPA100DA networked audio zone amplifier delivers advanced audio integration within a
commercial or residential AV installation.
The NPA100DA features a 2 x 50W digital amplifier (1 x 100W mono) or 70V / 100V hi-level constant
voltage output, dedicated LFE subwoofer output, Dante audio integration and 2ch balanced /
unbalanced audio outputs.
The NPA100DA supports a variety of inputs including 2ch Dante audio, HDMI ARC, MIC audio with
48V Phantom power support, optical audio and 2ch balanced / unbalanced analogue audio.
The NPA100DA can be powered via PoE++ from a compatible network switch, or locally should
the switch not support PoE++. The unit also includes the ability to lower the amplifier power
output subject to PoE capabilities, support for combined or independent LAN and Dante
connections, DSP with a 10 band EQ, audio delay for lip sync correction, independent gain
control for audio inputs and control via front panel, IR, RS-232, TCP/IP, web-GUI or 12V trigger.
