T
he Crown PIP LITE is a PIP (Programmable Input Processor) input
module for CTs 2 channel amplifiers. The PIP-LITE connects to an audio
control network via 100 Mb Ethernet. The audio path in the PIP LITE is
processed totally in the analog domain. The SmartAmp™ feature set offers a
range of automation functions which provide greater control over amplifier
operation and helps to save both time and money.
PIP BLU
T
he BSS & Crown
®
PIP-BLU is a PIP™ (Programmable Input Processor)
input module for CTs 2 Channel Amplifiers (CTs 600,1200, 2000, 3000).
It connects the amplifier to a 100 Mb Ethernet network allowing it to be
remotely controlled and monitored using HiQnet™ London Architect as well
as providing digital audio transport via BLU link.
The PIP-BLU offers 2 channels of audio via the Soundweb London digital
audio bus informally known as BLU Link. This high bandwidth digital audio
bus provides easy connectivity with fault tolerance. BLU link features a low
latency, fault tolerant digital audio bus of 256 channels which uses standard
Category 5e cabling giving a distance of 100m between compatible devices.
The BSS Audio MC-1 fiber optic media converter can be used to increase the
distance between devices to over 10km (6.2 miles) using single mode fiber.
