Description

The Aperta 4-way branch controller is a passive distribution unit for multi-way audio systems, splitting a single input signal across four output zones. The controller uses screw terminal connections on green pluggable blocks at each corner of the housing, allowing cables to be connected and removed without dismantling the unit from its mounting position.

Designed for residential and commercial multi-room audio installations, the branch controller sits between a master amplifier or audio source and multiple speaker zones, distributing the signal without amplification or processing. The 120 x 100 x 80mm white plastic housing mounts in false ceilings, plant rooms, or cupboards where cable runs converge. The front panel provides visual access to connection status and includes LED indicators for power and signal presence.

The unit measures 120mm wide, 100mm deep and 80mm high, with a net weight of 180g making it suitable for mounting on plasterboard or stud walls using the integral fixing points. The screw terminals accept cable gauges typically used in audio distribution (0.5-2.5mm²), and the pluggable green blocks can be pre-wired before insertion, reducing installation time when working in confined ceiling voids.

Frequently Asked

Does the branch controller amplify the signal?

No. The Aperta 4-way branch controller is a passive distribution unit that splits an input signal across four outputs without amplification. An external amplifier or powered source is required to drive the connected speaker zones.

What cable gauge do the terminals accept?

The screw terminals on the green pluggable blocks typically accept cable gauges between 0.5mm² and 2.5mm², which covers standard speaker cable used in residential and light commercial installations.

Can the terminal blocks be pre-wired?

Yes. The green terminal blocks are removable from the main housing, allowing cables to be terminated at bench level before the blocks are plugged into the controller. This is particularly useful when installing in confined ceiling voids or plant rooms.

Where should the controller be mounted?

The controller is typically mounted in false ceilings, plant rooms, cupboards or any concealed location where audio cable runs converge. The 180g net weight allows mounting on plasterboard using the integral fixing points without additional structural support.
