Eaton VoCALL 16 EVCS 8 Line to Analogue Exchange Unit (DAX8)

The Eaton DAX8 is a loop-powered digital-to-analogue convertor, used in conjunction with VoCALL 16 to ensure simplicity of future legacy system upgrade or expansion.

This loop-powered convertor allows the connection of existing analogue outstations to a digital system. A maximum of 8 analogue outstations of any combination can be connected to the DAX8 with a maximum of two DAX8 units per panel. The loop-wired connection to the DAX8, along with short circuit insulators, ensures the network is robust and fault-tolerant.

Compatible analogue outstations include the type A, type B, Jack point and emergency assist alarm (EAA).

Utilising a minimum of one MX panel and up to 31 additional lower cost NX network panels, the DAX8 enables system takeovers of up to 512 analogue outstations utilising existing Eaton loop and radial cable configurations.

The simplicity of operation, ease of cabling and competitive pricing makes the system suitable for a wide range of applications. The DAX8 can be wired in combination with our range of soft addressable digital outstations, ensuring the maximum flexibility in takeovers, upgrades and expansion of EVC systems.

The DAX8 also ensures compatibility with our low-cost jack point for regions where this system is allowed by building code, allowing up-to 512 individually addressed jack points per system, or 512 lines of jack points with potentially over 10,240 points available.
