Ultra Compact Box
The B4+ has been designed to be as small and compact as possible. A rugged aluminium case with tough pillar supports means that although it is very small, it is also very strong, to cope with the life of a portable unit.

High Specification Microphone Amplifier (with connector option)
The microphone input is on a 3 pin XLR with gain adjust and selectable 48v phantom power. The XLR connection can also be specified as a 4 pin or 5 pin headset connection if required. A separate 6.35mm headphone output is always available.

Listen To Four Separate Network Locations
As the Beatrice B4+ is an Audinate Broadway design, it is possible to talk to four separate locations on the network. It also means that you could operate over 100 Beatrice B4+ devices on the same network.

Four Direct Talkback Buttons
Four separate talk buttons route the microphone input to either of the 4 network outputs. The button operation can be configured as momentary (PTT), latching or the Glensound intelligent mode.

Built In Call Function
A double tap of any talk button will produce a ‘call’ signal alert that will be received by another Beatrice unit. This can be disabled. An LED indicates an incoming call alert, which will also produce an audio indication on the headphones.

Separate Level Adjust For The Four Inputs
Each input has a separate control to adjust the headphone level, so each of the four inputs can be quickly set at a different level. The pots are sprung recessed so when not in use they can be pushed into the unit to further reduce the unit dimensions and reduce the chance of any unwanted knocks. Each input can be panned left/right. There is a signal present LED on each input to identify the incoming audio source.

Remote Control
The Beatrice B4+ can be controlled across the network using Glensound’’s Windows 10 remote app GlenController. The unit can be monitored with a real time PPM meter, have settings changed, and remotely control the button operation and input gain control. Channel labels can be taken from the Dante network or set separately.

As standard the Beatrice B4+ is supplied with a 3 pin XLR socket for the microphone input and a 6.35mm (1/4") stereo jack socket for the headphone output.

It can, however, be ordered with either a 4 pin or 5 pin XLR headset interface.

Part numbers are:

Beatrice B4+/F3 (3 pin XLR)

Beatrice B4+/M4 (4 Pin XLR)

Beatrice B4+/F5 (5 Pin XLR)
