A comprehensive solution for public address and voice evacuation needs
An integrated PA&VA matrix featuring 2 x 460 W RMS amplifiers, with battery charger and control over 8 zones
COMPACT LITE is a highly advanced public address and voice evacuation system that seamlessly integrates cutting-edge technology with versatility. It features a built-in battery charger for uninterrupted operation, allowing users to deliver live voice messages and play pre-recorded announcements and music.
Each COMPACT LITE unit can control up to 8 loudspeaker zones, with a PA&VA matrix with redundant Ethernet connectivity for enhanced system reliability. It features four priority-controlled analogue audio inputs and supports the decoding of up to two simultaneous IP audio streams, with audio routing to two independent output channels operating simultaneously. The system’s core includes 12 configurable input contacts, 6 output contacts, and two powerful class D amplifiers delivering 460W RMS for music/backup and announcements.
Supporting 8 subzones with relay-controlled activation, COMPACT LITE provides precise control over external volume attenuators and offers extensive surveillance capabilities, monitoring loudspeaker lines, amplifiers, input contacts, and pre-recorded messages to meet EN54 requirements. The system has 10 MB of internal storage, expandable via μSD card, for pre-recorded messages.
With three battery configurations (internal, external, or none), CAN bus communication for peripherals, and external system integration via VoIP and direct protocols like JSON or API/DLL, COMPACT LITE ensures flexibility. Control and monitoring are streamlined through software, TELNET, SSH functions, SNMP, and a dedicated mobile APP.
Whether in a standard 2-rack 19” unit format or wall-mounted, COMPACT LITE sets a new standard in PA&VA systems, providing reliability, flexibility, and cutting-edge technology for various applications.

The RMS value is the only one that allows for accurate determination of how many speakers can be connected to an amplifier operating at maximum power and continuously. This calculation is not possible with other types of power ratings (burst, EN 54, musical, program, PMPO, peak...), some of which are much higher and refer to maximum values for very short periods of time before speaker failure or amplifier limitation.

The COMPACT LITE can be rack-mounted in a 19” rack or wall-mounted in a cabinet with sufficient space to accommodate external batteries if opting for lead-acid ones.
Optionally, on the exterior of the cabinet, an emergency local microphone console with 12 keys for zones/pre-recorded messages can be installed, providing everything needed to control the public address and voice alarm system from a single unit.
