DESCRIPTION

The EAW Commercial CAM160 is an integrated audio mixer and 
power amplifier outfitted with comprehensive input/output facilities 
and feature sets to provide exceptional versatility from a highly cost-
effective package. Designed for a wide range of fixed installation 
applications, the CAM160 offers “all in one”  functionality without 
need for add-ons such as expansion modules. 

The CAM160 is equipped with six actively balanced combination 
mic/line inputs as well as individual adjustable potentiometers for 
line level input, mic level input and mic level input with 24-volt DC 
phantom power. Input 1 also offers the flexibility of an integrated 
transformer for connection to telephone paging systems. 

Inputs 1 and 2 are divided into four discrete input sections: a 
combination XLR/TRS connector, Phoenix connector, or terminal 
strip. Meanwhile, Inputs 3, 4, 5 and 6 offer both Phoenix connectors 
and terminal strips. Two pairs of RCA connectors allow unbalanced 
auxiliary (Aux) signals to enter the amplifier via Aux 1 and Aux 2, 
both of which are attenuated by a potentiometer on the front of the 
amplifier. 

Two levels of priority can be established on Inputs 1 and 2, initiated 
with external contact closures or adjustable signal threshold levels. 
External volume control is possible through a Phoenix connector 
and user supplied potentiometer. A two-position Phoenix connector 
allows the internal fault relay to be connected to redundant systems. 
And, an adjustable pre-announcement chime is also included.

Front panel controls include a level control for each input, a toggle 
switch for Aux 1 or Aux 2 selection, and one Aux master level control 
for the selected Aux. Low and high EQ controls offers 12 dB of boost 
or cut at 100 Hz and 10 kHz, respectively. A master volume control 
affords output volume control, while distinctive LEDs indicate power 
(green), signal (amber), overload (red), and fault (red).

The CAM160 provides 160 watts of output power at 100 volts, 
70.7 volts, 25 volts and 4 Ohms. An intelligent output stage is fully 
protected against permanent damage caused by overloading, shorts 
and thermal faults. 

The CAM160 will operate on 100 volts to 240 volts AC power (50/60 
Hz), and is supplied by a detachable IEC power cord. A combination 
banana plug/binding post connection is also provided for 
connecting an external 24-volt DCbackup battery.
