In the mid-1980s, Telos pioneered the very first digital adaptive telephone hybrid. Since then, their POTS phone hybrids have earned a worldwide reputation to deliver clean, clear caller audio from even the most difficult calls. The new Telos Hx1 represents the highest state-of-the-art in hybrid performance, with Telos processing technologies that take the POTS hybrid to a new level of consistently superior performance, regardless of telephone line characteristics.
Inside the single-hybrid Hx1 you’ll find Telos' most advanced hybrid technology with new features that sweeten and control caller audio better than ever before. Hx hybrids come standard with features you won’t find in other POTS hybrids, like Auto-Answer, caller disconnect detection, sophisticated new audio-leveling and anti-feedback routines for enhanced open-speaker applications, call screening and line-hold features, and front-panel send and receive audio metering — plus much, much more.
- Telos' best, most advanced hybrid algorithms.
- New symmetrical wide-range AGC and noise gate by Omnia, with adjustable gain settings.
- Studio adaption and pitch shifter help prevent feedback in situations where open speakers are required.
- Adjustable caller override improves performance and allows you to individualize the degree to which the announcer ducks the caller audio.
- Digital Dynamic EQ and adjustable smart leveler keeps audio spectrally consistent from call to call.
- New EQ High and EQ Low display meters for each hybrid.
