1 Introduction
Welcome to the Nx12
The Telos Nx12 combines a 12-line selector and 4 hybrids with advanced signal processing to deliver all you need for your on-air phones. The four hybrids make it ideal for programming where multiple callers are aired simultaneously. It also has the flexibility to serve two studios with two hybrids for each.
At the heart of any broadcast telephone system are the hybrids and associated signal processing. Based on the latest Telos technology, the Nx12 includes the very best broadcast hybrids avail- able.
Depending on the version ordered, the Nx12 can use six ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) BRI circuits (with 2 channels per circuit) or 12 analog lines, or a 50/50 mixture of the two types.
The Nx12 has support for up to eight Telos third-generation control surfaces such as our Call Controller and Desktop Director. It also supports control via IP/Ethernet.
Studio equipment can connect with analog, AES3, or Livewire IP audio.
Features & Benefits
Telos products have earned a reputation for ease of use and outstanding performance, and the Nx12 lives up to that reputation. It integrates a suite of audio processing functions to achieve unsurpassed audio quality. Its features include:
♦♦ Excellent send-to-receive isolation using the latest generation of Telos’ field-tested Adap- tive Cancellation technology. Each hybrid automatically and continuously adjusts to phone line conditions, eliminating the hollowness, feedback and distortion that occur when send audio “leaks” into the caller output signal.
♦♦ Sophisticated AGC/limiting functions and three-band Digital Dynamic Equalization (DDEQ) ensure controlled caller audio levels and spectral consistency.
♦♦ Four high-perfomance adaptive digital hybrids.
♦♦ Studio-grade 20-bit audio conversion, combined with noise gating and shaping, extracts the best possible audio quality from real-world telephone lines.
♦♦ High-precision sample rate conversion for ISDN circuits. ♦♦ Full metering for setup and operation.
♦♦ Adjustable Caller Ducking (override).
