Product Description
For exceptional flexibility, check out Audio’s exclusive Quick-Switch™ normalling system. We’ve taken our standard 2x48x2RU, .172” MINI (Bantam/TT) patch bay and brought the Tip, Ring, and Sleeve of each jack out to individual 3-Pin EDAC connectors. Then it’s mounted on the rear of a 3-inch deep “SHORTI” box, with a cabling support tray behind for bundling incoming cables.The Quick-Switch™ normalling pod (located on the rear of the unit) allows you to set the individual normals on a per jack-pair basis. This enables you to full-normal (FN), half-normal (HN), or non-normal (NN), individual bussed grounds (B) on a per-row basis. You can also have the unit share a common (bussed) ground, or the grounds can be vertically strapped (GVS).
To change any normal, simply pull the panel out from the front and move the Quick-Switch™ shunt to the desired setting.
Mini Shorti Highlights:
- 96 3-Pin male mating connectors (E3M) and 288 crimp pins supplied with panel.
- All units shipped half-normalled unless otherwise specified.
- We suggest leaving a 1-foot service loop for ease of changing normalling.
