Just like IED’s other digital microphone stations, the 524 uses a single Ethernet interface for audio and control data. The 524 station is fully compatible with IEEE 802.3af standard for Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing the 524 to be powered directly from any standard off-the-shelf PoE switch.
The 524 digital microphone station provides immediate digitization of full bandwidth audio and transmission over a standard Ethernet connection. It utilizes the IED 501HH teardrop handheld microphone that includes a programmable push-to-talk button. The station uses a metal magnet landing area for the 501HH to provide a storage position for the microphone.

IEDA524-H Attached to Standard 2-Gang Electrical Box The IEDA524-H is designed to fit in a standard 2-gang electrical box. Install the unit into a box as shown in Figure 3. This is the preferred installation method for wall mounting or any other flush-mount applications. When this mounting method is used, you should remove the included plastic back box and store it for any future needs and use the included screws for mounting the device in the 2-gang electrical box.
