NEO

NEO stands for cutting-edge technology in EN 54-16 PA/VA applications and uses innovations that ensure the future and future viability.

The main unit by itself of NEO’s Public Address and Voice Alarm system, “NEO 8060”, impresses with its plug-and-play philosophy: in just one 2U device all is featured and included, for which other manufacturers normally require several devices. NEO 8060 includes 8 Class D 100V amplifiers from which 1 can be used as backup amplifier, a digital audio matrix (40 x 1024 digital), two 4 GB message players, HQ audio via Ethernet and a user-friendly touchscreen.

Thanks to its sophisticated modular system architecture, NEO is very easy to expand. Either locally by directly connecting NEO extension amplifiers (100V or Low-Impedance) using an Ethernet cable or decentralized via Ethernet switches.

NEO is easy to integrate and can communicate with third-party systems (via UDP Ethernet commands, via RS-485 or relay contact closures).

NEO distributes up to 32 bidirectional real-time high quality (48 kHz, 24 Bit) audio streams via Ethernet with very low delay times.

NEO allows intuitive control via a web-based remote control. Thanks to the SIME software the user can, for example from a central control center, easily control and monitor several NEO systems.

Due to the plug-and-play philosophy the time required to assembly racks and with that the costs, is significantly reduced. Installation, inspection and maintenance as well as the operation of the system are therefore significantly simplified.
