2 Introduction
The RTS family of Digital Intercom Matrices is the most extensive, widely used, scalable and
backwards compatible line of intercoms in the world today. The high-end ADAM 2 Matrix
supports 8 to 880 users per system; 512 ports possible in just a seven RU (Rack Units) frame.
Utilizing a patented TDM (Time Division Multiplex) technique, the ADAM 2 grows linearly as
users are added. The system comes standard with redundant universal power supplies
(100-240 VAC), and supports redundant controllers, allowing for automatic change-over in the
event of failure.
ADAM 2 is available with a wide variety of Interface cards in the industry, including the
MADI-16, OMI, AIO-16A, and RVON + interfaces. It also has the wide variety of cabling options,
including RJ11, RJ45, DB9, jack fields, and many others.
With its second generation controller card, Ethernet connectivity is achieved between the
ADAM 2 Intercom and AZedit. ADAM 2 can support 32 simultaneous AZedit sessions.
