ONNECTIONS
All electrical connections to the microphone are made using the
connector block mounted on the termination PCB.
To avoid the possibility of interference between the Audio and
Data we recommend each microphone is connected using two
separate 4 core Fire Rated cables, one carrying the Audio pair and
the other the Serial Data pair.
