The PZ6 Precision Wall Plate was created to make the installation of ELAN
Z•Series Multi-Source/Multi-Zone systems literally 'plug-and-play'. Like the
entire family of ELAN Essentials products, the PZ6 was designed with the cus-
tom installer in mind. Its goal––to cut hours off of every Z•Series installation
and assure that all system wire runs and Z• Series components are connected
properly first time, every time.
FEATURES
Front panel RJ45 jacks accommodate the connection of all ELAN
Z•Series components, including a multiple Z•630 systems of up to
12 zones (systems using three or four Z•630s will require two
PZ6's). ELAN's new line of Essential Cables include 1 and 2 meter
RJ45-to-RJ45 interconnects to make all connections plug-and-play.
The PZ6 completely eliminates the need to interconnect ELAN
Z•Series components. Whereas numerous 'butt-splices' needed to
be made between the Z•630 PreAmp Controller, the Z•600 Comm
Controller and the Z•880 Video Controller so that they could 'talk' to
each other, the PC board on the PZ6 does all of that for you.
The rear panel features a standard 110 punchdown connector for
every Z•Series wire run, including Z•PADs, Z•025 modules, Door
Speaker Assemblies, Relays, Volume Control Overrides, Telephone
and even a punchdown connector that will interface with VIA! LCD
Touch Panel Precision Wall Plates.
The front of the panel is clearly silk-screened to make the connec-
tion of Z•Series components quick and easy. The rear panel PC
board is labeled with the name and function of each punchdown
connection. To make things even easier, a rear panel color-code
overlay is included with each PZ6. Just match up every Z•PAD and
Door Speaker Assembly wire to the corresponding connector and
punch it down!
Twelve gold-plated, 5-way speaker binding posts make speaker ter
mination easy. For clean, no-short connections, ELAN recommends
the use of its "BLACKJACK" gold-plated Banana plugs, which are \
accepted on both sides of the speaker binding posts.
Eight RCA-to-F barrel connectors make for easy connection of all
your coax wire runs to the Z•880 Video Controller.
+12VDC Inputs are provided on the front of the PZ6 for Z•025 &
VCO relay control. Just plug in ELAN's Z•027 power supply and the
PZ6 automatically routes the power to the appropriate punchdown
connectors.
