Summary

The DH20 is a high quality single line telephone interface that interconnects a standard telephone line and your audio equipment, allowing you the ability to send audio to and receive audio from a connected telephone line. The DH20 is ideal when the very best audio quality is required for talk shows, news feeds, production, recording studios, and internet applications.

The newest DSP technology delivers better and more reliable sound quality. The DH20 delivers the deepest and most stable hybrid null, ensuring maximum isolation between the send and caller audio. That mean no echo and no “bottom of the barrel” sound.

In addition, selectable automatic gain control (AGC) and caller ducking has been added. With AGC, each call will be delivered to your equipment at the same level. Caller ducking reduces the caller’s audio level when the announcer speaks, providing a more “controlled” environment. A speaker amplifier has also been added so you can connect a speaker directly to the unit and monitor callers without headphones.
