About RDL Modules
APPLICATION-SPECIFIC MODULES perform a particular electronic function or do a specific job. Audio and video functions are broken down so a module does one job. Certain modules mix, others preamplify or amplify, others detect, others control, and others distribute. A module is provided for each function and type of signal. APPLICATION-SPECIFIC MODULES give you two basic methods of use:
Do a single job:
- Balance an unbalanced audio line at its source
- Bridge a balanced audio line
- Distribute audio or video to several destinations
- Add more inputs to a mixer
- Remote control audio/video sources or audio level
- Add automatic gain control or compression where it is needed in a system
- Preamplify a microphone at the microphone location to drive line level
Build a complete system or system subassembly:
- Automatic mixing system
- Distributed audio throughout a facility
- Prioritized source selection for zone paging or room combining
- Any mixed and distributed system using audio/video detection and/or remote control
About RDL Advantages
The advantages of designing with RDL modules are versatility, performance and value.
Lower cost
- Buying a single preamp or small mixer often saves the cost of a larger mixer
- Connecting several specific modules doing the functions you need can take the place of larger, more expensive equipment
- Install exactly the functions you need without the added cost of functions you don’t need
High performance
- Installing a function where it is needed often improves system performance, such as installing a mic preamp near the microphone
- Small size circuits meticulously engineered for optimum performance produce lower noise
- Balanced differential lines between each system function (module) reduce interference and common mode noise
- Interconnection is maintained at industry standard professional audio and video levels
Versatility
- Modules can be mounted in the system right where their function is optimum
- RDL Rack-mount accessories are available for convenient module mounting in equipment racks RU-Series mounts 3-across in 1RU; Stick-On series mounts 12 across in 2RU
- There is a module for nearly every audio or video function in any small or large system!
