As such the BEATRICE D16 is fully compatible with other manufacturers’ equipment using the Dante® and\/ or AES67 protocols.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis sixteen channel desktop intercom was designed to be very easy to use for the operator and simple to set up for the technician.

This microphone amp has two microphone sources, either the inbuilt front panel mounted electret capsule which provides good voice intelligibility from normal working distances, or a balanced XLR input for connecting external gooseneck microphones. Twelve Volt Phantom power is also available and can be turned on\/ off as required via an internal link.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh Output Intelligible Loudspeaker\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eWhat’s the point of an intercom unit if the onboard speaker is so cheap that you can’t understand what is being said to you? We tried many different drive units before settling on the one used in the Beatrice D16.
