Handsomely finished in a choice of black anodized or brushed aluminum, Crestron FlipTops lend a contemporary metallic accent to conference tables and podiums. The FT-TS600 installs cleanly in virtually any flat, horizontal surface up to 1 3/4” (44 mm) thick. Beveled edges provide for a nearly flush appearance.
FT-TS600’s integrated microphone and speaker. Line Output In addition to its onboard speaker, the FT-TS600 includes a balanced line level audio output, allowing the speaker signal to be routed to the room’s audio system. Amplifying the FlipTop’s audio signal through the room speakers enhances its audio conferencing capabilities, allowing a small group of individuals to participate in a conference call using a single FT-TS600.
Crestron FT-TS600 Power over Ethernet Using PoE+ technology, the FT-TS600 gets its operating power right through the LAN wiring. PoE eliminates the need for a local power supply or any dedicated power wiring. A PoE+ capable power source (CEN-SWPOE-16, sold separately, or similar) is required to power the FT-TS600.
