Lencore's Spectra i.Net™ is the highest quality sound masking system in the industry for speech privacy and comfort. The system works by gently raising the background sound in the space with masking to create a comfortable environment that supports concentration and collaboration while enhancing speech privacy, productivity and performance.

Ideal for larger projects with multiple floors and when network control for the system is desired. Ideal project sizes can range from 25,000 - 2,000,000+ square feet depending upon project needs and scope of work. The network server and sound manager for the system can program hundreds of zones for masking, paging and music; offers 1/3 band octave or parametric equalization. Music paging interface is revolutionary for paging capabilities. Unsurpassed sound quality and uniformity for speech privacy and comfort.

What makes Lencore's Spectra i.Net™ sound masking system so intelligent is its network capabilities, intuitive technology and its infinite flexibility on an open-platform system to suit any project size. With its state-of-the-art, networked capabilities for sound masking, music and paging, the combined innovations of the complete sound masking system - sound source, speakers, power supply, i.LON® 100, music page interface, equalizers, online Sound Manager and remote control - put the Spectra i.Net™ on a new level of customization and performance for networked sound masking systems.

Customizing the Sound: The OP

The heart of the Spectra i.Net™ System is the OP (Operating Platform), the primary sound source that produces, equalizes and distributes the sound for masking, music, and paging. Each OP includes:

• Multiple sound sources that produce a perfectly random sound quality, with no audible repeats.

• Independent equalizers for unprecedented tuning where every channel of the system has a separate and independent 1/3rd band and parametric equalizer.

• Sound frequencies and contour that can be adjusted and set to any point on the acoustical curve, from 20Hz to 20kHz, making the Spectra i.Net™ the first networked sound masking system to make fine-tuning of the entire spectrum of sound possible.

• A network that is intelligent enough to bypass any failure in the system to keep communicating throughout the entire network. Competitor's point-to-point networks cannot achieve this level of connectivity.

Additional OP Features

• Display system information on its integrated LCD screen, including the specific address of the respective enclosure. This address aids in locating the correct OP in the ceiling plenum, and eliminates the need for as-built drawings when checking or modifying the system.

• Checks (during a diagnostic) each OP for system performance including the operation status of the network, sound masking, program, memory, and power.

• OP contains an integrated IR eye and includes a port to remotely locate the IR access to a port or wall switch to control the masking, paging, and music.

Zoning and Programming Flexibility

Groupings of sound sources and channels let you customize an almost limitless amount of zones for masking, paging, and music for complete networked operation and control.

Digital, Remote and IR Control

The Spectra i.Net™ System can be controlled and adjusted digitally through a web interface, manually through a handheld remote control, or through an IR port location as directed by the client.

Each sound masking channel can be digitally controlled for sound and zone management without and change in wiring or need to go back into the ceiling. Also available is a handheld and infrared (IR) remote for making adjustments and tuning. Point the remote either at an individual sound source (OP) or to a wall-mounted , infrared receiver panel. Control has never been faster or easier.

Plug & Play Wide Dispersion Speakers

Lencore offers the highest quality speakers in the sound masking industry with the widest dispersion that perfectly reproduces the finest masking sound. Our system offers in-plenum and direct field speakers to suit all ceiling applications and types. Phone jack style connectors are integrated into each speaker and OP eliminating the need to strip and connect wires, saving installation time and ensuring a cleaner installation.

Head-End Equipment

The Spectra i.Net™ System head-end equipment is typically installed in the telephone room IT, or electrical closet and includes the following:

• Power Supply - Plug in, 48V switching power supply unit

• Music Page Interface (MPI) - permits zoned paging or music with customers' own telephone system.

• i.LON® 100 - Plug -in, electronic web server with data port acts as the network conduit and relays information from the online Sound Manager to the OPs and channels.

The Music Page Interface

Lencore's Music Page Interface revolutionizes the way companies do paging by replacing all of the bulky head-end equipment that is typically associated with music andpaging systems, enabling users to make zone additions, modifications, deletions, and other changes without the need for rewiring or running multiple home runs back to the electrical closet or through building risers.

The Spectra i.Net™ MPI provides the ability to program up to 100 zones for paging using standard DTMF tones through a single telephone connection. The system can also be programmed for all call and emergency broadcst paging and has left and right stereo inputs for music. In addtion, the system includes AE, (adaptive equalization), that automatically compensates for frequency loss across the wiring of the entire building and ensures the clearest, most intelligible page possible.
