Extron Launches Energy Qualified Half-Rack Amplifier
Extron unveils XPA U 3502, an audio power amplifier that delivers two 350 watt channels into 8 ohms or 4 ohms in a 1U, half rack device. It is convection cooled, UL 2043 rated for plenum installation, and includes hardware for rack mount configurations. The XPA U 3502 offers the ability to install high power amplification without using rack spaces for ventilation, conserving precious rack space.
"This much power in a half-rack amplifier is unprecedented", says Casey Hall, Vice President of Sales and Marking at Extron. "When combined with one of our half-rack DSP units, like the DMP 64 Plus, you now have the ability to deliver a very capable audio switching, DSP and amplification system in a single rack space."
It features an efficient advanced Class D amplifier design with power factor correction, ultra-low inrush current, defeat able auto‑standby with fast wake up, and their patented CDRS – Class D Ripple Suppression.
