Secondary Receiver
The optional VLR 102 SR secondary receiver is an additional IR receiver that
extends the coverage of the VoiceLift microphone in large or odd-sized rooms.
The VLR 102 SR is connected to and powered via the VLR 102 receiver’s RJ-45 In
port. The secondary receiver is identical in appearance to the primary receiver;
however, the base plate of the VLR 102 SR contains only two RJ-45 connectors, with
no captive screw connectors or DIP switches. You can have up to four secondary
receivers in an installation, in addition to the VLR 102 primary receiver.
