JK Audio TAP-1 Telephone Audio and Power Interface, 600 ohms RCA Line Input and Output

After extensive research and development, the JK Audio TAP-1 emerges as a high-quality, durable, and reliable Telephone Audio and Power Interface. This innovative device is designed to power an analog telephone with the necessary -48 volts DC, while simultaneously separating audio into distinct transmit and receive paths.

Acting as a virtual RJ-11 wall jack, the TAP-1 is an essential tool for a wide range of audio applications. It replicates the functionality of a standard telephone wall jack, providing the necessary power to your phone through the Tip and Ring wires. These two wires form a balanced, two-way voice path that can transmit signals over long distances with minimal noise and signal loss.

The TAP-1 is more than just a phone line simulator. It's a versatile device that can transform a burdensome two-wire interface into a user-friendly solution for getting audio in and out of a telephone without needing a connection to the telephone company. This is achieved through a process known as a 2-wire to 4-wire hybrid, where the TAP-1 provides the Tip / Ring interface and -48 volt supply, and then separates the audio into transmit and receive paths.

Designed with compatibility in mind, the TAP-1 can be used with a wide range of devices, including digital cameras, lenses, pro audio & video, professional gear & musical instruments from top brands. It also boasts both RCA and RJ-11 interfaces, making it a convenient choice for connecting devices that use different types of connections to a computer.

Whether you're working on a TV or film studio set, testing telephones, voice coding algorithms, or phone line equipment, the TAP-1 is built to meet high specifications for laboratory testing use. Its user-friendly design and innovative features make it a reliable choice for professionals in the field of audio and video technology.
