Volume Control Panel with Local Inputs - 

ACPL is a wired remote control panel with local inputs for the Apart SDQ5PIR active speaker. This audio control panel makes you forget the worries associated with the use of audio in public rooms used by different people on an almost hourly basis. No more lost remote controls, or battery problems. The remote control panel can power the SDQ5PIR speakers ON or OFF, has volume control or direct muting. A power indicating LED indicates the power status of the active speakers. Connection to the active speaker is done by a CAT5 cable which also takes care of power. There is a selectable microphone input (jack) and a stereo line input (mini-jack) for laptops or personal audio devices. For better speech intelligibility and to avoid “plopping” noises, there is a low-cut filter on the microphone input.
