Audio power amplifiers for networked applications with mixed speakers and power introduced by Extron

Summary points:

• Extron launches NetPA Ultra FX series eight- and four-channel configurable output audio power amplifiers for networked, multi-zone applications requiring mixed speaker types and power levels.
• Dante connectivity with integrated DSP enables centralized audio distribution over standard networks, with built-in dynamics processing and filtering at each amplifier endpoint.
• Flexible, high-power performance supports 4/8 ohm and 70/100-volt loads, delivers up to 800 Watts per channel, and features InstaWake technology for sub-50 millisecond recovery from standby.

ANAHEIM, Calif. – Extron in Anaheim, Calif., is introducing the NetPA Ultra FX series eight- and four-channel configurable output audio power amplifiers for networked, multi zone applications that need mixed speaker types and power levels.

These amplifiers offer Dante connectivity and essential audio digital signal processing (DSP). Dante connectivity makes it easy to distribute audio from a centralized location to decentralized remote amplifiers throughout a facility, building, or campus using standard network hardware.

Integrated audio DSP enables any NetPA Ultra FX amplifier to operate as a complete endpoint with dynamics processing and filters.

Configurable amplifiers

These amplifiers are software configurable to support large systems with several speaker types by simultaneously driving 8 ohm, 4 ohm, 70 volt, and 100 volt loads.

The amplifiers share total power of two adjacent channels to deliver as much as 800 Watts per single channel.NetPA Ultra FX amplifiers feature Extron InstaWake technology to return to full power from standby in less time than 50 milliseconds to ensure no part of the audio is ever cut off.
