    The X6R-TP with the dual microphone input card removes the problem where only one of the FOH or Monitor engineers can have full gain control of a single microphone input channel. Every microphone input incorporates two independent microphone preamps meaning both can be adjusted individually.

    Up to 8 TP devices can be used in one SANE CAT5 daisy chain to extend OPTOCORE FX fiber node with up to 64 audio inputs and 64 audio outputs and additional 100Mbit LAN ports. Microphone preamps on the TP device can be controlled from any node in the fiber network as well as from the console running Emulation Mode.

    Optocore ring. In this example there are three Optocore X6R-TP units: one with two mic input cards, second one works as a dual mic device, third X6R-TP with one input and one output analogue card. There is also one V3R-TP with one output card.
  • Page 21: Example 2

    Example 2 X6R/V3R-TP devices are used mostly as a channel extension to main fibre optic Optocore network nodes. In this example two FX devices are connected with dual ring redundant network. X6R/V3R-TP devices are used as an analogue extension. On the one end three TP devices extend the channel count of X6R-FX unit. This group of devices can be used as a stage box with 40 microphone inputs and 16 line outputs.
