MTI DOC 91743-A1
DESCRIPTION
The MTI 91743 Digital Amplifier is a cost effective solution for intercom applications. The 91743
communicates with the intercom master (i.e. touch screen computer or handheld device) over a
standard Ethernet connection. The amplifier is designed to connect to a 25V intercom system. The
digital amplifier also supports up to a 60W paging amplifier interface. In the standard MTI
Intercom system, the 91743 connects to the MTI Intercom termination boards (81129/81229) via
the speaker buss. See Figure 3 for the typical hookup for the 91743 digital amplifier.
The 91743 Digital Amplifier has two LED indications on the front panel. After the boot sequence,
the green LED will flash every second. When the amp is in talk mode, the red LED will be solid
on. The red LED will flash every second when in page mode.
Primary volume adjustment can be achieved remotely using MTI ProVision software. If additional
receive volume adjustment is needed, the potentiometer on the front panel can be used.

CONNECTING TO THE NETWORK
The 91743 Digital Intercom Amplifier supports a 100 Mbps network connection.
1. Connect a Cat5e (or better) unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable and connector to the RJ-
45 connector on the 91743.
2. Connect the other end of the UTP cable to an available port on a 10/100 (minimum)
compatible network switch.
CONNECTING POWER
The 91743 Digital Intercom Amplifier requires a connection to a 12V DC power supply which is
capable of supplying 2 A of current.
To connect power:
1. Connect two power conductors to pin 1 and 2 of the power connector.
2. Connect the other end of the two power conductors to the appropriate power source.
The 91743 ships with a 12V DC power supply which already has the five position connector pre-
terminated.
CONNECTING THE SPEAKER BUSS
The 91743 Digital Intercom Amplifier is intended to be used with MTI 81129/229 termination
boards and 25 volt line audio devices. The speaker buss from the amplifier connects to the
termination boards which distribute the audio signal to the audio devices. MTI recommends
using West Penn Wire #292 cable for connecting an amplifier to MTI termination boards.
To connect the speaker buss to an MTI 81129/229 termination board:
1. Connect one end of the WPW 292 cable to the speaker buss connector on the MTI
termination boards.
2. Connect the other end of the WPW 292 cable to the speaker buss connector on the MTI
91743 amplifier.

CONNECTING A PAGE AMPLIFIER
When used in conjunction with a paging amplifier, the 91743 Digital Intercom Amplifier
supports paging over the intercom system. The maximum required power that can be sourced to
each paging zone is 60W. The “Page In” signal on the 91743 is an unbalanced microphone level
output which can be connected to the input of an external paging amplifier. The input of the
paging amplifier must be unbalanced. The “Page Out” signal on the 91743 should be connected
to the output of the paging amplifier. When the amplifier is in page mode, the output of the
paging amplifier is directly connected to the MTI speaker buss. This allows 25 or 70 volt paging
speakers to be used depending on the output of the paging amplifier. Typical page amplifier
hookups can be seen in the Appendix.
To connect a MTI 91743 to a paging amplifier:
1. Connect two appropriately sized conductors to the “Page In” signals on the 91743.
2. Connect the other end of the conductors to an unbalanced, microphone level input of the
paging amplifier.
3. Connect two appropriately sized conductors to the “Page Out” signals on the 91743.
4. Connect the other end of the conductors to the output of the paging amplifier.
