The BSS BLU-BIB “break-in box” adds 8 channels of analogue mic/line input expansion to any Soundweb London system over the BLU link high-bandwidth, fault-tolerant digital audio bus. It is a standalone expander configured entirely by DIP switch and front-panel controls – no HiQnet London Architect programming required – making it a fast way to bring remote inputs into a networked install.
