1. PRODUCT

DESCRIPTION

Linear’s M&S Systems brand Model DMC-10 Structured Wiring
Intercom System is a distributed hub design that provides easy
installation and structured wiring mounting compatibility.

The Model DMC-10AWP Audio Input Wall Plate provides
a method for playing an audio source through the DMC-10
intercom system’s room and patio stations.

The wall plate mounts in a single-gang J-box and features two
Type RCA audio input jacks, a mute output, a signal overload
indicator, and a removable signal level adjustment control.

The two audio inputs connect to the left and right channel line
level outputs on the audio source component. The wall plate
will convert the stereo inputs to a monaural output for the
DMC-10 system. The signal overload indicator and signal level
adjustment allows setting the wall plate for various input signal
levels without distortion.

The 3.5mm mute output jack provides a contact closure to
interrupt an independent audio system whenever the DMC-10
intercom system is being used for communications.
