The Biamp Tesira EX-OUT is a half-rack expander that adds four balanced microphone or line level outputs to an AVB-enabled Tesira audio system. It takes power from the network over PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at Class 4, 30 W) and offers a -100 to +12 dB fader range, selectable output reference levels and 24-bit conversion. It suits boardrooms, lecture theatres and hotel conference suites. Request a quote from SmartRooms Qatar.
What the Tesira EX-OUT adds to an AVB audio system
The Tesira EX-OUT is a half-rack expander built to add output capacity to an AVB-enabled Tesira system. It provides four balanced channels that can be configured to carry microphone or line level signals. The unit links to the Tesira AVB network for audio transport, configuration and control, so it is managed alongside the rest of the system rather than as a standalone box. It is designed to work with Tesira server-class devices that support AVB.
Power, signal and connection facts
The EX-OUT is powered from the network cable over PoE+, meeting IEEE 802.3at Class 4 at 30 W, so it draws power from a PoE+ network port rather than a separate power feed. Each output channel offers a fader range of -100 to +12 dB and a signal invert function for reverse polarity. The full scale output reference level can be chosen from 24 dBu, 18 dBu, 12 dBu, 6 dBu, 0 dBu or -31 dBu, which lets the installer match the connected equipment. The maximum output is +24 dBu, the converters are 24-bit, and sampling runs at 48 kHz. Frequency response is +0/-0.25 dB from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, and dynamic range is above 108 dB. Connections are made through plug-in barrier strip connectors, and front panel LEDs show device status.
Where it fits in Qatar
- A boardroom in a Doha government authority: the extra outputs can feed a recording or external sound channel without reworking the existing Tesira design.
- A lecture theatre in Education City: line level sends can supply a lecture capture system or an assistive listening feed, with the reference level set to suit the receiving equipment.
- A conference suite in The Pearl: the half-rack format fits a shared equipment rack in a hotel comms room, where the unit can be managed through the same network as the rest of the audio system.
Planning the installation
Confirm rack space before ordering. The unit measures 44 mm high (1.75 inches), 216 mm wide and 197 mm deep, and weighs 1.4 kg (3 lbs). The rated ambient operating range is 0 to 40°C at 0 to 95% relative humidity, non-condensing, up to 3,000 m altitude. Summer temperatures in Qatar can exceed 45°C, so the rack should sit in an air-conditioned comms room or cabinet, not in an unventilated cupboard. Check that the PoE+ switch port delivers Class 4 power, and plan cable routes for the barrier strip wiring. SmartRooms Qatar offers free site surveys and professional installation, so the rack position and cable runs can be confirmed before the unit arrives.
Compliance, warranty and ordering
The EX-OUT is TAA compliant, RoHS compliant and AES grounded. Its listed certifications include FCC Part 15B, CE marking, UL and C-UL, RCM and EAC. The manufacturer's warranty is five years. Government and tender buyers can order through a purchase order (LPO) or a Monaqasat tender, with payment by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order.
