The very popular API "lunchbox" is a non-rack mountable frame that can fit up to six 500 series modules from any manufacturer. The built-in power supply and small format has made it a favorite for those of us with more equipment than space.

api lunchbox features

The API Model 500-6B Lunchbox is a six position rack designed to accept all API standard 5.25" X 1.5" modules (commonly called "500 Series Modules"). The Lunchbox is self-powered, with a rear panel selected AC voltage switch, and a removable power cord. The input/output jacks are XLR.

The Lunchbox comes standard with a +48 volt internal phantom power supply, bussed to pin 15 for interface with the API 512C.

NOTE: The 560A series equalizer may use pin 15 for a "direct output" and must be disabled on the 560A circuit board edge connector by cutting a trace. This will eliminate 48 volts from damaging the 560A series equalizers. If in doubt, feel free to contact the factory.

API makes several modules to fit this rack, including the 550b, 560b, 525, 550a and 512c.
