1 Introduction
The DHY-03 is a high quality digital telephone hybrid, which is suitable for most general
telephony applications and is often used in radio and TV stations, bingo halls and dealing
floors. The digital DHY-03 telephone hybrid is the replacement for the DHY-02, which for
many years has set the standard as an excellent value, high quality telephone hybrid. The
DHY-03 can be used for any application where a clean telephone signal is required and the
line is not subject to excessive delay. The DHY-03 retains many of the features of the DHY-02
and adds some additional ones. Some of the features of the DHY-03 include:
.
Fully automatic - adapts to varying line conditions and has automatic signal limiting.
.
Fully adaptive echo cancellation to 127msec - default is 24msec.
.
75dB typical line balance rejection offering superb performance and crystal
clear audio.
.
Front panel input and output gain controls (jumpers on DHY-03EC).
.
Front panel LED metering of receive and send signals.
.
Built-in conferencing for 2 hybrids, so that a single telco channel on a mixing desk can
receive 2 calls (unavailable on DHY-03EC).
.
Integrated ring detector - automatic call answering after a pre-determined number
of rings.
.
Automatic call disconnection. Fitted with K-break, line polarity reversal and dial tone
disconnect detection, defined by the country selection.
.
Automatic ducking facility allows the talent to ‘shout-down’, or talk over, a caller by
reducing the gain of the caller’s signal if it goes above a certain level.
.
Local and remote line hold switching - calls can be remotely switched through a
mixing console.
.
Line hold/release button to control line hold circuit, illuminates to indicate the status
of the line and flashes to show ring status.
.
DTMF tone recognition allowing a opto-isolated GPI output to be made on receipt of
selected DTMF tones, e.g. for starting a studio automation recorder automatically to
record a remote telephone interview.
.
International operation with built-in configurable settings for each country. Country
selection allows the unit to provide line impedance and a simulation circuit to match
the country.
.
RS232 serial port for remote control of the TBU, DTMF tone dialling and firmware
upgrades to add new country settings.
