The TOA N-8000AF IP Intercom Audio Function InterfaceUnit offers multiple functions within the N-8000 system, serving as ananalog audio input/output bridge, a bell schedule generator with internaltones, and a recording device for archival purposes. Additionally, it canoperate as the system master clock, syncing with contact closure or NTP serveras needed. When utilized as an analog audio bridge, it accepts mic or linelevel input and can broadcast to any paging zone or station, providing oneline-level output along with eight contact closure inputs and outputs that canbe synchronized with paging events.
As a bell schedule generator, the N-8000AF supports 16schedules with 64 events each, offering five internal tones and the ability totrigger up to four external paging sources. For recording purposes, it suppliesan analog audio output and contact closure control for external recordingdevices to capture pages, announcements, and conversations. Please note that arack mount kit is not included, and the recommended options are TOA MB-15B-BK(one unit per rack space) or MB-15B-J (two units per rack space) forinstallation.
