Noise Reduction Module 

Model A121 

Installation Instructions 

 

 

Description

 

The 3M Noise Reduction Module (3M part number 78-9236-6403-7) improves the inbound intelligibility of an 
intercom system by reducing environmental background noise from vehicles, airplanes, noisy intersections, etc. 

 

Additional Material Required

 

• 

18 - 22 AWG twisted - shielded pair audio wire 

• 

2 mounting screws and appropriate wall anchors 

Important:

  

The 3M Noise Reduction Module should be mounted no more than 3 feet from the intercom or base 

station. 

 

 

System Requirements

 

The 3M Noise Reduction Module requires a system with a separate outside microphone and speaker.  

The A121 will 

not function with an intercom system configured to use a single speaker as both the microphone and speaker

.  The 

A121 will work in conjunction with most dynamic microphones and speaker/microphone assemblies. 

 

System Configuration

 

The 3M Noise Reduction Module configuration is controlled by two jumper switch (JMP1 and JMP2) settings.   

JMP1 is used to set the appropriate gain for the MENU MICROPHONE. 

JMP2 is used to match the A121 output level to the input of the intercom system.
