1 - Overview
The VoiceBox 4 I/OP CobraNet Audio Interface is a full featured 4 input, 4 output mic/line preamp with an integrated
CobraNet interface for sending and receiving digital audio over a CobraNet network. In addition, the VoiceBox 4 I/OP
provides a dedicated DSP for compression, equalization, and gain on each input channel as well as limiting on each output
channel. Audio is routed using an internal matrix mixer that allows flexible audio routing between all available local and
CobraNet I/O.
The VoiceBox 4 I/OP features the following connectivity:
o Audio I/O - 4 balanced inputs, all with gain and +12 V phantom power selectable on a per channel basis, and 4 line
level balanced outputs.
o CobraNet Interface Port - Connects the VoiceBox 4 I/OP to a CobraNet network using standard CAT-5 cable.
o RS-232 Port - Enables the transmission of serial data from any VoiceBox 4 I/OP to any other VoiceBox 4 I/OP on a
CobraNet system.
It can be powered by either using PoE from a standard 802.3af compatible PoE network switch or injector, or by using an
external +12VDC source.
Configuration of the VoiceBox 4 I/OP is done using the Attero Tech Control Center software. This control software allows
