BSS EC-V-WHT-US Ethernet Controller Volume Control

The BSS EC-V is built for the professional installed-sound market — specifically the boardrooms, auditoriums, and broadcast suites running Harman HiQnet infrastructure. In those environments, the last thing a facilities engineer wants is a wall controller that requires local power homerun wiring or a proprietary cabling scheme. The EC-V sidesteps both: Ethernet carries control data and power in a single Cat5e or Cat6 run, and the HiQnet protocol handles everything from volume control to preset recall with native two-way communication. What you get at the wall is an encoder that feels deliberate and authoritative — not a cheap potentiometer, but a push/rotary with enough resolution to make fine-gain adjustments without hunting.

The multi-color LED ring is more than cosmetic. Mapped correctly in your HiQnet system design, it becomes an at-a-glance status indicator — green for nominal, amber for a cued preset, red for mute. The US Decora form factor means it integrates architecturally without custom backboxes or adapter plates, a detail that matters when you're coordinating with a general contractor on a commercial buildout. The white finish suits modern interior design standards, and the single-gang footprint keeps wall real estate clean. For any facility standardized on BSS Soundweb London DSPs, the EC-V is the logical, low-friction endpoint for operator-level control.
