C-Bus Multi Room Audio System
560011 – Audio Distribution Unit
The C-Bus Audio Distribution Unit is an optional device, which can be used
with the C-Bus Multi Room Audio System to further enhance Clipsal’s cost
effective audio product family.
The C-Bus Audio Distribution Unit distributes a single digitised stereo audio
input source to multiple locations via amplifiers wired in a parallel format
(using RJ45 double adaptors, Cat. No. 5600TEE). Functions such as
Volume, Bass, Treble and Balance can be adjusted from a C-Bus input
device at any of the audio output locations.
