Product Overview

The Bogen ZX3 is a 3-zone expansion module for the UTI312 Multi-Zone Paging Controller, adding three additional independently controlled paging zones per module to an existing installation. Each ZX3 supports audio output for up to 150 self-amplified speakers per zone, making it well-suited for large commercial facilities requiring high speaker counts without additional amplifier infrastructure. Up to four ZX3 modules can be connected to a single UTI312 controller, scaling the system from its base configuration to a maximum of 12 paging zones. The ZX3 is the correct expansion path for AV integrators and facilities managers who need to grow a UTI312 paging system without replacing the central controller.

Product Description

The Bogen ZX3 3-Zone Expansion Module extends the zone capacity of the UTI312 Multi-Zone Paging Controller in three-zone increments, giving commercial AV installations a scalable path to broader zone coverage without a controller replacement. Each ZX3 connects to the UTI312 and adds three fully functional paging zones, each capable of driving up to 150 self-amplified speakers a capacity level appropriate for large open-plan offices, warehouses, school campuses, and retail environments with distributed speaker networks. The UTI312 accepts up to four ZX3 modules simultaneously, meaning a fully expanded system delivers 12 independently addressable paging zones from a single controller. This architecture is cost-effective for phased deployments: integrators can start with the base UTI312 and add ZX3 modules as facility zones are built out or as paging requirements expand. The ZX3 is designed specifically for use with the UTI312 and should not be used with other Bogen paging controllers. For facilities already operating a UTI312-based paging system, the ZX3 represents the direct and manufacturer-supported method for zone expansion. Each module is compact and designed to interface cleanly with the UTI312’s expansion architecture, preserving the integrity of the overall system installation.

Key Features

• 3 Additional Paging Zones Each ZX3 module adds three independent paging zones to the UTI312 controller, allowing precise zone-by-zone expansion.
• Up to 150 Self-Amplified Speakers Per Zone High speaker capacity per zone supports large commercial spaces with distributed audio networks.
• 4-Module Maximum Per Controller The UTI312 accommodates up to four ZX3 modules, scaling the system to a maximum of 12 paging zones from a single controller.
• Phased Deployment Friendly Modules can be added incrementally as facility zones are built out, protecting the initial controller investment.
• UTI312-Specific Design Engineered exclusively for use with the Bogen UTI312 Multi-Zone Paging Controller for guaranteed compatibility.
• Compact Form Factor Space-efficient module design integrates cleanly with the UTI312 expansion architecture without requiring additional rack space.
