BDI Introduces the new PAS-200 Series Passive Audio Switchers

The PAS-200 Passive Audio Switcher provides A/B switching of up to 16 individual balanced pairs of digital or analog audio. The signal path is passive via relay sets, allowing analog and digital audio signals and low-voltage DC control signals to pass through the switcher. The signal path is passive, with no active circuitry, using relay sets that allow analog and digital audio signals, as well as control signals, to pass through the switcher. The PAS-200 is designed to meet the rigors of live sound, production, recording, or broadcast environments. The PAS-200 can feed up to 16 A and B inputs and can be programmed to switch one at a time or any grouping of the 16 channels to 16 outputs.  Audio I/O is the TASCAM standard. Control and monitoring can be accomplished in various ways to accommodate nearly every interface situation. RS485 serial and standard GPIO control and status indications are available, along with an SNMPv2-capable LAN interface, and an optional remote-control panel is available from BDI. The remote-control panel uses a serial interface and is connected via a single CAT5 shielded cable, accommodating cable runs of up to 1000 feet (305 meters). BDI also provides free Windows Graphical User Interface software for configuration, direct control, and status of the PAS-200. To maximize reliability, the PAS-200 is equipped with dual power supplies and separate power cords, allowing it to be fed from separate AC sources.
