ANC-1 Hardware

This section is provided to aid in the use of the ANC-1. Please see the ANC-1 Manual for further information on installation of the device.


 

Ambient Noise Input Connections

Two plug-in barrier-strip connectors on the ANC-1 connect the ambient sensing sources to the device. One or two microphones or line-level sources may be connected. Both connections can provide phantom power, switchable from software (default: off). Multiple microphones may be mixed before connecting to the ANC-1. If both inputs 1 and 2 are used the audio levels presented are summed.

Network Connection

The ANC-1 has one RJ45 connector located on the rear panel that utilizes standard Ethernet cabling to interface to the Vocia system via a managed switch. The RJ45 provides two LEDs that indicate Ethernet link and network activity.
