General Description

RTS Cronus is a 32-port digital matrix intercom in 2 RU (rack units). Based upon an advanced DSP (Digital Signal Processor)
architecture, Cronus has the ability to link up to four (4) units into a single 128 port matrix. Through the use of standard video
coaxial cable, the maximum distance between the first and last Cronus system can be up to 300ft., and still appear as a single
matrix. However, when using the Fiber Option card, the distance is increased up to 15 kilometers nominally. When connected
as a single matrix, the individual Cronus control remains autonomous and independent at each matrix for the highest
reliability.

Convenient front panel access, as well as traditional rear access for system
programming. Note, you may use either the front panel access or the rear panel access,
but not both at the same time.
NOTE: The USB drivers for Cronus are installed with the AZedit software. You
can find the folder at C:\Telex\AZedit\V20606. The drivers are bundled in
version 2.06.06 or later.
Digital signal processing designed to support audio signal processing on all 32 ports
(inputs).
The modular architecture allows for port expansion from 8 to 32 ports giving each
user expandable systems in the field.
Each chassis is powered by two power supplies, either of which can sufficiently power
all the equipment ALONE. This provides constant power and disaster recovery even
with the failure of one power supply.
