About this product

C-TEC APM is a microphone.

The Outreach Plate audio input extension system comprises a range of wall, ceiling and desk mountable plates specifically designed to increase the audio input capability of any audio system. Covering the most common variants of audio connectors, they work by mixing the signals from various audio input sources into a single balanced line level input on a compatible amplifier. Each input plate features a built-in mixer, preamp, input level control and balanced output.

Typically, up to 10 Outreach plates (any mix) can be daisy-chained to one balanced line level connection with cable lengths up to 100m easily achievable using standard two-pair audio cable (i.e. Belden 8723). Each plate requires four wires; two balanced line (Line/A +, Line/A -), one ground (GND) and one power connection (V+ = 12-32V d.c.).

Most of C-TEC's PDA Range induction loop amplifiers are fitted with an Outreach connection socket as standard. For audio systems that do not have an Outreach socket, straightforward network connection can be achieved using an 'APV' 24V 250mA d.c. regulated power supply and an 'APXO' 3 pin XLR balanced line output plate.

Key features

  • A self-contained omni-directional plated electret microphone complete with onboard mic to line level converter.
  • Part of C-TEC's patented'Outreach Plate' audio input extension system (see key features section below for details).
  • Provides up to 25m2 ambient coverage or 2.5m2 direct speech coverage when located at a ceiling height of 2.5 to 3m.
  • Compatible with C-TEC's entire range of PDA102, 200E, Pro-Range and ML1 induction loop amplifiers.
  • Can be connected to any third-party audio or induction loop amplifier using an APV 24V 250mA power supply.
  • Mounts on a 25mm standard UK single gang back box.

If you are matching this to an existing installation, work from the APM part number rather than the description.

Who this is for

For the installer — this is the microphone supplied under C-TEC part number APM. Specify it by that part number.

The entries in the specification table are the ones held against this part number. Anything not listed there is not stated by us, and should be confirmed against the manufacturer's own documentation.

In plain English: this is a microphone made by C-TEC. The part number APM is the manufacturer's own code for this exact version of it.

Similar-looking items in the same family often differ only by a suffix on that code. If you are replacing something, match the code rather than the picture.

Buying this in the UK

We are a UK supplier and this microphone is sold and shipped from the UK. Prices are shown in pounds sterling.

This item is returnable under our standard returns terms. Faulty goods are handled separately and are never affected by a returns restriction.

We do not quote a warranty term for this part. Every supplier-stated term we have checked against the manufacturer's own document has turned out to be wrong, so we would rather say nothing than say something we cannot stand behind.

Ask us and we will check it for you. Your statutory rights are unaffected.

Stock on this line moves, and lead times move with it. Ask us for the current position before you commit to a date on site.

Questions we get asked

Is this the exact microphone I have been quoted? Check the manufacturer part number APM against your quote. That code is the only reliable identity for this item.

Is there a datasheet? Documentation is attached to this listing, but the check did not confirm that it names this exact part number. It is attached as the supplier's document for this row, and no claim on this page rests on it.

Can you check compatibility for us? Ask before you order and we will check it against the manufacturer's own documentation. We do not state compatibility that the record does not carry.

Why does the listing not answer every question? Because the specification held against APM answers some questions and not others. We would rather leave a gap visible than fill it with something we cannot show you.

What if I order the wrong version? Tell us the installation you are matching and we will work back to the part number with you. That is a faster conversation than a return.

Do you hold this in stock? Availability on this line changes through the week, so the honest answer is to ask us on the day. We will give you the current position rather than a general one.
