Product Overview
The Vocia VA-4030e is a networked four-channel amplifier for paging, background music, and voice evacuation in commercial install-sound systems. Delivering 30W RMS per channel with local analog inputs and on-board DSP, it is built for decentralized Vocia paging and EVAC networks. It supports both low-impedance and constant-voltage outputs for flexible distributed audio.
Product Description
The VA-4030e provides four channels of 30W amplification and is CobraNet-enabled for audio and control with dynamic bundle use. Each channel includes a gain-adjustable mic/line analog input with switchable phantom power for local background sources, and on-board DSP provides fixed-chain processing within the device. Two RJ-45 connectors provide redundant CobraNet connectivity, and a dual power supply accepts AC mains plus single or dual 24V DC inputs. Page active relay outputs provide a per-channel contact closure, and comprehensive failover (device-to-device, all-to-one, and channel-to-channel) plus locally stored emergency messages support life-safety duty. The amplifier is EN 54-16 certified and EN/AS 60849 verified.
