Fault tolerance
– Dual OMNEO network connections, supporting Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), for
loop-through connections to adjacent devices.
– Dual 48VDC inputs with polarity reversal protection, each with a full power DC/DC
converter, operating in tandem for redundancy.
– Fully independent amplifier channels; the integrated spare channel automatically replaces
a failing channel, with due regard of the actual sound processing settings.
– All amplifier channels support two independent loudspeaker groups, A and B, enabling
redundant loudspeaker wiring topologies.
– Backup analog audio lifeline input driving the spare amplifier channel to serve all
connected loudspeaker zones in case both network connections, or the amplifier network
interface, would fail.
