INF-MP-16 and DS-16 Digital Intercom Master Panels

Introduction

The INF-MP-16 and DS-16 are digital intercom Panels designed to work as part of the Telos Infinity ‘matrix-free’ IP networked Intercom system. Telos Infinity supports all expected features such as point-to-point communications, Groups, Partylines, and IFBs.

The MP-16 and DS-16 connect over a supporting 1000Mbps Ethernet network with 24-bit/48 KHz uncompressed digital audio carried as Audio over IP (AoIP) using the Livewire+™ AES67 industry standard.

Both Panels are powered by PoE (Power over Ethernet) either directly from the network switch or via an external PoE source. Additionally, a screw-lock 12VDC inlet is included on the rear Panel, which may be used as primary power if PoE is not available, or as part of a redundant power design (recommended and encouraged). Both ethernet ports are active to enable daisy-chaining of expansion panels.

Telos Infinity uses the term “contacts” to describe the designated name and operation of other user Panels. For example, if three Panels are used for the Director, Producer, and Floor-Manager, then each of these would be a contact and have keys describing the mnemonic on the corresponding Panels.
