Features
Universal Wireless Receiver: The Focal Universal Wireless Receiver enables
wireless connection of your Bluetooth-enabled devices (such as your Apple
iPod/iPhone/iPad, Android smartphone/tablet, Blackberry, or laptop/computer) to your home entertainment
system. Now, you will be able to listen to music files and music apps from your
Bluetooth-enables device on your home stereo system (your home system must have
a free stereo RCA audio input).
Bluetooth A2DP Technology: The Focal Universal Wireless Receiver features
Bluetooth A2DP technology, which allows you to wirelessly stream audio from your
Bluetooth-enabled device to your home entertainment system. You will continue to
control your music and view song/artist information from your Bluetooth-enabled
device.
Note: Due to the differences in Bluetooth technology, some
Bluetooth enabled devices may be incompatible, function improperly, or may
not support all features when used with the Focal Universal Wireless
Receiver.
Apt-X Compatible: Apt-X audio coding, which is featured on a growing number
of Android mobile devices as well as MacBooks and Apple desktop computers,
allows audio to be broadcast wirelessly in significantly higher quality than
over standard Bluetooth. The apt-X codec achieves a 4:1 compression ratio, allowing for
near-CD quality listening (16-bit/44.1kHz). You'll instantly notice more
extensive dynamic range, deeper bass, and crystal-clear top end.
Stereo RCA Outputs: The Focal Universal Wireless Receiver is fitted
with a set of male stereo RCA connectors and includes a stereo RCA extension
cable to plug into your home receiver or powered speakers.
LED Indicators: The Focal Universal Wireless Receiver features a
single LED to indicate operation status. If the LED is not lit, the receiver is
off (plug the included AC power supply into a power outlet). If the LED is
blinking, the receiver is powered on with no source associated to it (you can
now associate a new device). If the LED is continuously blinking, the receiver
is powered on and one device is already associated to it.
Power Requirements: The Focal Universal Wireless Receiver operates off
of standard household current using the included external AC power supply.
- Input: 100-240V~50/60Hz,

- Output: 5.0V - 500mA
