HY-03

Automatic Analogue TBU, Free Standing

The analogue HY-03 telephone hybrid is the replacement for the HY-02, which for many years has set the standard as an excellent value, high quality telephone hybrid. The HY-03 retains many of the features of the HY-02 and adds some additional ones. Some of the features of the HY-03 include :

  • Fully automatic – adapts to varying line conditions and has automatic signal limiting.

  • Local and remote line hold switching – calls can be remotely switched through a mixing console.

  • Momentary or permanent latching remotes can be enabled.

  • Balanced mic/line input – 10k ohm balanced input selectable for 0dBu clean feed line, or microphone level with adjustable gain.

  • Balanced output – 0dBu low impedance balanced output, with output gain adjustment.

  • Mixed output – the output can be a mix of the caller and mic/line input signals for recording both sides of the telephone conversation.

  • Integrated ring detector – automatic call answering after a pre-determined number of rings.

  • Fitted with K-break disconnect detection as standard with an option for dial-tone disconnect using the optional HY-03DTD board. The HY-03DTD board can be configured to disconnect on recognizing the dial tone used in a specific country.

  • Line limiter, bandpass filter and output noise gate with preset threshold providing low distortion crystal clear audio.

  • 28dB typical line balance rejection.

  • Built in power supply with switchable 115V, or 230V, mains input.

  • BABT approval compliant with European PTT specifications.

Which Format Is Most Suitable?

The HY-03 analogue hybrids are available in three models :

  • HY-03 Single free-standing automatic analogue TBU.

  • HY-03S Single 19” rack mounted automatic analogue TBU with ringing detector.

  • HY-03T Twin 19” rack mounted automatic analogue TBU.

Product Features

  • Fully automatic - adapts to varying line conditions and has automatic signal limiting.

  • Momentary or permanent latching remotes can be enabled.

  • Balanced mic/line input - 10kΩ balanced input selectable for 0dBu clean feed line, or microphone level with adjustable gain.

  • Balanced output - 0dBu low impedance balanced output, with output gain adjustment.

Typical Applications

Radio & TV station talk shows, telephony interface to the mixer.
