Extron AudioControl C20 Compact Audio Controller Non-Plenum 1000...
Extron AudioControl C20 is a compact, wall-mountable audio controller designed for simple, intuitive control of audio levels and source selection in small to medium presentation spaces. It features a rotary volume knob with push-to-mute functionality, three input selection buttons, and an infrared receiver for optional remote control. The unit supports stereo unbalanced audio inputs (RCA or 3.5 mm stereo mini) and balanced/unbalanced stereo output (captive screw), with independent mic/line level control and ducking for microphone priority. Powered via 12 VDC external supply, it integrates cleanly into single-gang wall boxes or furniture for a professional appearance.
This controller is ideal for conference rooms, huddle spaces, classrooms, and training areas where users need straightforward volume adjustment, source switching, and mic priority without complex interfaces. It provides local control via front-panel controls and supports integration with Extron control systems via contact closure or IR for automated room functions. The durable metal faceplate and compact design deliver reliable performance in fixed AV installations.
