24-key panel for Kroma hybrid intercom

At Broadcast'09, Kroma presents its new TP5024 hybrid panel, which is part of the new generation of hybrid intercom systems.

Kroma has launched, as part of its new generation of hybrid intercom systems, the new TP5024 hybrid panel. It has 24 configurable keys, each one equipped with an independent graphic LCD, with the possibility of displaying both texts and graphics. Each key is capable of displaying two lines of text of 6 characters (6+6) or 64x32 pixel graphics. The user can configure the background color from among 64 available with 8 brightness levels to accommodate the panel to different spaces. The 24 keys can be configured on up to 4 different pages, resulting in 96 different crosspoints. Note that the keypad can be easily configured to work in LATCH or PTT mode.

In addition, the panel that these days can be seen at the Kroma stand at Broadcast'09, is compatible with external calls from a basic telephone network, ISDN or by GSM (SIM card), implemented in the Kroma matrices and interfaces. You can, therefore, directly call an external telephone number directly from the panel using any of these technologies. As for audio connections, it supports a total of six different ones, having four different ports with which to connect to the crosspoint matrix: two digital ports, one IP port and one analog port. The TP5024 is supplied with an internal speaker gooseneck microphone. Optionally, headphones can be connected to the front panel (XLR connector).

Its main advantage is that it can be integrated into any existing or newly installed Kroma intercom system. The panel can be connected to any Kroma matrix (the analog TB6500 series, the digital TB7000 or the hybrid TH5000) or to multiple matrices simultaneously.
