Product Overview – T-7700

The T-7700 is the flagship hardware controller for the ITC T-7700 Series IP network audio system. Designed for 24/7 mission-critical operation, it combines a high-performance industrial computer with a large 17.3-inch capacitive touch screen, providing an intuitive local interface for system management, monitoring, and diagnostics.

Preloaded with Windows Server 2008 and rigorously tested with ITC T-7700RU/RP software, the T-7700 offers plug-and-play deployment. Its robust I/O configuration – 6 serial ports, 8 USB, dual Gigabit LAN – ensures seamless integration with peripheral devices such as fire alarm interfaces, external controllers, and backup servers. The auto power-on and short-circuit boot trigger features guarantee automatic recovery after power interruptions, essential for unattended control rooms.

Integrated Touch Console

17.3" capacitive touch screen eliminates need for external monitor/keyboard. Full HD resolution for detailed terminal maps and task views.

Industrial Reliability

Designed for continuous operation. Enhanced cooling, anti-vibration chassis, and industrial-grade components.

Rich Connectivity

6x RS232 for legacy fire panels, 8x USB for peripherals, dual LAN for network redundancy or separate management network.
