N-8610RM in combination with the SX-200IP IP Interface Module permits announcements to be made to the
SX-2000 Matrix System.
* Technology related to audio transmission over a network.
3. FEATURES
• Canbeconnectedtoanexistinglocalareanetwork(LAN)orwide-areanetwork(WAN).Thesystemcanalso
beeasilyconnectedtober-opticnetworkswithoutrestrictionsonoperatingdistance.
• ThededicatedN-8000softwareprogramenablescentralizedcontrolwithapersonalcomputer.
• Systemmaintenance (verifying operationlogand line supervision)canalso be performed witha PC and
Internet browser.
• ConnectingthestationtoaPoE(PoweroverEthernet)switchinghubeliminatestheneedforanACadapter.
• ConnectinganoptionalRM-210RemoteMicrophoneExtensionexpandsthenumberoffunctionkeysand
indicatorsin10units.Upto4RM-210scanbeconnectedwhenanACadapterisused,andupto2RM-210s
inthecaseofPoEpowersupply.
