A-BUS by MTX Audio

ABUS is a revolutionary new technology created to simply and affordably distribute music in commercial and home applications. ABUS works with inexpensive 8-conductor (CAT 5) wire to distribute audio, infrared, status and system power to the ABUS in-wall controller/amplifier.

The HUB1x2 is the core of the ABUS system. There is one stereo line-level source input with RCA connectors. 4 emitter ports (IR) to remote control multiple source components and the main amplifier (to allow for input selection). Dual emitters may be used.

Each of the 2 zone outputs provides the power, audio and data signals to feed a Volume Control Module. The power supply is supplied with the hub to power the outputs of each zone.

Features:

• 1 Stereo Line Level Input
• 2 Zone Output
• 4 IR Emitter Ports
• Includes 1 Power Supply
• Utilizes Structured Wiring So Only 1 CAT-5 Cable Run Is Needed For Each Zone.
• No Special Programming Needed

There is one stereo line-level source input with RCA connections. 4 emitter ports (IR) to remote control multiple source components and the main amplifier (to allow for input selection). Dual emitters may be used. There is also a local infrared input (Xantech™ compatible) to relay IR commands if the main system amplifier is concealed (single zone amplifiers only).

The HUB4x8 is the core of the ABUS system. There are four stereo line-level source inputs. Each input has individual level adjustments (left and right). Each source input has its routed emitter port, if more that one component of the same type is used the remote control commands will not be confused. E.g. 2 tuners. There is also a common emitter port to control components that are common to all zones.

Each of the ABUS Outputs provides the power, audio and data signals to feed a Volume Control Module. There are four output zones, each zone may independently select from any of the four sources. Each zone has two outputs bank "A" and bank "B". One power supply is supplied with the hub to power the outputs for one bank. A second power supply (p/n APS-40) can be added to power the second bank or alternatively the second output can be used as an expansion port to feed one or more single source hubs with expansion capability.

Features:

• 4 Stereo Line Level Inputs With 4 Stereo Line Level Outputs
• 4 Zones With 8 Outputs
• 4 IR Emitter Ports And 1 Common IR Emitter Port
• 4 Left And Right Gain Controls
• 1 12-Volt Trigger Output
• Includes 1 Power Supply
• Includes 1 ABUS ABO-41RC Remote Control
• In/Out Expansion Ports for Additional Zones
• Utilizes Structured Wiring So Only 1 CAT-5 Cable Run Is Needed For Each Zone.

The ABUS-LS1 provides “local” input capability for sources such as TV sound, MP3 player, computer sound cards, etc. located in the zone. The ABUS-LS1 automatically switches to the local input when a local source is detected. 30-seconds after the local source ceases, the ABUS-LS1 automatically reverts to the main input source.

Features:

• 1 Stereo Line Level Input With RCA Connections
• Local Signal Sensing Trigger
• Utilizes Structured Wiring So Only 1 CAT-5 Cable Run Is Needed For Each Zone.

Where there is no main system amplifier, the ABUS-MS1 Input Selector enables the A-BUS system to operate independently by providing inputs for switching up to four source components.

The selector's four stereo RCA-jack inputs accept audio line level signal from source components, such as tuners, CD players, DVD players, cable boxes, etc. Any of the Selector's inputs may be chosen via remote control commands. The four loop-outs will send the audio signal on to the next component without loss or gain.

There are four emitter ports to control source components if required, a 12-volt trigger output for power switching and an infrared pass-through to control other devices.

No separate power supply is required because the Input Selector is powered via it's connection to the A-BUS system. A standard RJ-45 patch lead (568A) is required between the A-BUS output and the expansion input port of an A-BUS hub. (ABUS-HUB1X4)

The MTX A-BUS VC2 volume control power module incorporates stereo amplifiers with individual level adjustments (left and right) that can power a pair of 4 or 8 Ohm speakers in each zone.

Only one category 5 (CAT-5) cable is needed to connect the hub and the power module making install quick and easy. Speaker cable is then run from the power module to the speakers.

The MTX VC2 IR-equipped modules relay 38kHz and 56kHz codes to the source components for input track/channel selection, etc. It also includes infrared talkback and status indication. An LED indicator signifies when the A-BUS system is on (see Power/Status below) and it flashes to signify an infrared command has been received.

The volume level on the MTX VC2 A-BUS module can also be operated by the supplied remote control handset. Three colors of Decora style wallplates, inserts, and buttons are also included (white, ivory, and bone).
