UnicaTM

8-Channel Fixed Installation Amplifier Platform

The UnicaTM Series is a

compact, 1RU amplifier platform

developed primarily for installed

applications. The 8-channel

version includes 1kW, 2kW, 4kW,

and 8kW total power models,

making UnicaTM one of the most

power-dense solutions available.

The output channels can

drive Lo-Z and 70/100V lines

seamlessly, delivering up to

twice the rated power when

asymmetrically loaded, resulting

in 2000W @4Ω for the 8kW

model. The power supply allows

worldwide operation (100-

240VAC), and it is equipped with

the latest generation of single-

stage power factor correction

(PFC). The proprietary Smart Rails

Management (SRM) allows the

supply rails to adapt in real time

to the required output voltage to

maximize efficiency and reduce

idle losses.

UnicaTM platform features

Powersoft’s next-generation DSP

for state-of-the-art processing

and audio performance. The three

1Gb Ethernet ports, along with the

native DanteTM and AES67 support

allow for different network

topologies including daisy-chain

and DanteTM redundant.

The front panel display allows

quick access to the amplifier

operating status information for

local monitoring. The PoE (Power

over Ethernet) input allows for

short recovery time in case of

mains loss, as well as testing

and monitoring loudspeakers

24/7 without the need for mains

power.

Lastly, UnicaTM Series amplifiers

natively support cloud connectivity

for remote monitoring and control

from any device anywhere in the

world via the Powersoft Cloud.
