The RS-801-IM is a single-channel analog beltpack that can carry power and audio through the XLR-3 line connector. Each beltpack combines high headroom, low-noise audio and shaped frequency contour (the “Clear-Com Sound”) to deliver clear audio.
The RS-801-IM features LEDs on the top of the beltpack for visual indication of incoming and outgoing call signaling. A mic preamp enables intelligible voice communication for every volume level. Recessed rotary volume control, Talk and Call keys guard against accidental activation. The RS-801-IM has a low operating current to allow for more beltpacks in a daisy-chain.
A concealed DIP switch panel on the back of the beltpack allows the capability to select audio and key options quickly and easily. DIP switches can control features such as switching between electret or dynamic headsets, setting a minimum or off level for headphone output, adjusting volume settings, enabling or disabling LED signals, having Call on Talk or latching the Talk key. A green LED indicates that the beltpack is powered and a green LED on the Talk key indicates that the microphone is active (Talk is latched). An amber LED indicates a Call signal on the channel.
The RS-801-IM is designed in a rugged, reliable, IP53 water, salt-mist, and dust resistant casing. A belt clip allows a variety of ways to use the beltpack; users can clip it to a belt or lanyard, or users can mount the belt clip to a wall, pole or desk for fixed installations.
The RS-801-IM is compatible with all Clear-Com Encore® partyline products, as well as the PL-Pro line and other partyline systems via Encore interfaces.
