Silent Knight EVS-50W is a self-contained 50-watt distributed amplifier for the Silent Knight Emergency Voice System. Because it has its own power supply and battery backup, it can be located near the area it serves to cut down speaker wiring.
It connects to the EVS system with six wires, two for the voice bus and four for the SBUS, and can be installed up to 6,000 feet from the EVS-Series panel. Each amplifier is supervised by the main panel. Up to four EVS-50W amplifiers can be used on one system.
