RDL AV INTERFACES - EZ Series

The EZ-Series offers a wide range of stand-alone designs including distribution amplifiers for line level audio, headphones, composite and XGA/XGA video, audio pre-power and mixer amplifiers, AV input selectors and computer video selectors. All models may be connected and operated without the use of tools, using standard cables. They are housed in enclosures with the same height, with widths in increments of one sixth of a rack-width, so they may be mounted singly or in multiples in a range of accessory mounts. Audio and video are switched using solid-state circuitry to avoid degradation due to dirty switches; critical connectors are gold-plated for reliable connections.

PRO-INTERFACES

Commonly used with record-replay machines such as CD recorders which have semi-professional audio input and output arrangements, typically using RCA (phono) connections, to interface them to professional, balanced, line-level systems, these are stereo units. They are bi-directional; they can interface both inputs and outputs of the recorder. Level indication and level control of both incoming and outgoing audio is provided. A range of mounting accessories is available for the Radio Design Labs EZ-series.

This is similar to the EZ-VMD4, but has in addition two trimmers on the rear panel, offering a gain adjustment of 0dB to +6dB and a peaking equalisation correction of 0 to +8dB at 100MHz. These do not affect the local monitor output, but the three other monitor outputs. Specifications and accessories are the same as the EZ-VMD4.


EZ-VM12 - Two outputs

Discontinued

This is similar to the EZ-VMD2, but there is no ID-bit switch. The ID bit is permanently connected between the input and local monitor connectors. Specifications and accessories are the same as the EZ-VMD2, except as follows. Video bandwidth: Better than 360MHz. Power source: 24V DC, 50mA idle, 60mA maximum.


EZ-VM13 - Three outputs

EZ-VM14 - Four outputs

Discontinued

This is similar to the EZ-VM12, but has four 15-pin, HD D-sub connectors offering separately buffered outputs. Specifications and accessories are the same as the EZ-VM12, except as follows. Power source: 24V DC, 50mA idle, 70mA maximum.

MOUNTING ACCESSORIES

These include a free-standing case and rack-mounting adapter for multiple units, fixed desktop mounts, under-shelf brackets and through-surface bezels for the Radio Design Labs EZ-series of audio and video equipment.

The EZ-Series offers a wide range of stand-alone designs including distribution amplifiers for line level audio, headphones, composite and XGA/XGA video, audio pre-power and mixer amplifiers, AV input selectors and computer video selectors. They are housed in enclosures with the same height, with widths in increments of one sixth of a rack-width, so they may be mounted singly or in multiples in this range of accessory mounts.


EZ-SMB1, EZ-SMB2 Bezels - For Surface-Mounting

These may be used to mount an EZ Series product in any flat surface. The bezel serves to hide the edge of the cut-out through the surface; the EZ Series product fastens to the bezel with only two screws. The EZ-SMB1 mounts a 1/6th rack-width item. Dimensions: 104 x 69(w x h). Cut-out: 79 x 44(w x h). The EZ-SMB2 mounts a 1/3rd rack-width item. Dimensions: 178 x 69(w x h). Cut-out: 152 x 44(w x h).


EZ-CC6 Component Chassis - Free-standing Housing

The EZ-CC6 is a steel case for free-standing use, which will take EZ Series products up to six increments of 1/6th rack width. The front and rear, as supplied are open. The cover lifts off the base after four screws are removed. The base plate is punched for fasteners to mount active products, storage drawers or filler panels to fill the remaining open space at the front. The rear is left open for cable access.


EZ-DC1, EZ-DC2 Desktop Chassis

Made from folded steel, in a wedge-shape, the EZ-DC1 is for mounting an EZ-series 1/6th rack width product above a surface, with the front panel at an angle. The chassis covers a cable port in the desk-top and provides space for excess wire. The bottom is open to give a large area for access to the cable port; the top is also open underneath the mounting position for either a 76mm or 127mm deep EZ Series product. The rear is open for cable access. The chassis is fixed to the desk top, the cables are drawn through the cable port and out of the rear of the chassis. The EX Series product is screwed to the chassis then the cables are brought up from below and connected. The EZ-DC2 is the same as the EZ-DC1 except that it mounts a 1/3rd rack-width EZ Series product.


EZ-FP1 Filler Panel

These are used to fill in space in the front panel when the EZ-RA6 or EZ-CC6 are not fully occupied with other EZ Series products. They mount to the base with two screws.


EZ-RA6 Rack Adapter

This is a rack-shelf designed to mount EZ Series products up to six increments of 1/6th rack-width in 1U of a 19 inch rack. The front and rear are open; the base is punched to fix EZ Series active products, storage drawers and filler panels at the front. When mounted in a rack, it is possible to release two screws at the rear, allowing the base-plate to slide forward so that items may be installed without removing the shelf from the rack.


EZ-SD1, EZ-SD2 Storage Drawers

These may be used in an EZ-CC6 Component Chassis or EZ-RA6 Rack Adapter to provide useful storage space for adapters and cables, as an alternative to filler panels. The drawer base slides into grooves in the base of the EZ-CC6 or EZ-RA6. The EZ-SD1 takes up 1/6th of a rack width. The EZ-SD2 is 1/3rd rack width.


EZ-UCB2 Under-Counter Brackets

These are simple, folded-metal brackets which snap on to the case of an EZ Series product, which can then be secured to the brackets with screws. The brackets, in turn, can then be screwed to the underside of a counter or shelf. (Suitable screws should be chosen to suit the material of the shelf or counter, they are not included.)
