PowerMatch™ Amplifier Product line overview
PowerMatch PM8500 and PM8500N
The PowerMatch PM8500 and PM8500N are configurable professional audio amplifiers. The two versions are identical except that
the PM8500N version adds an RJ45 connector on the rear panel to allow network setup, control, and remote monitoring of multiple
PM8500N units using Bose® ControlSpace® Designer™ software and standard network equipment.
Accessory Cards
The PM8500 features a digital input slot that allows for accessory plug-in cards to be used. These cards allow for added I/O flexibility.
For example, the PM ESPLink card provides a shared 8-channel uncompressed digital audio bus between one or more PM8500 units
and a ControlSpace ESP engineered sound processor. Visit pro.bose.com for information on other available accessory cards.
ideal for use with RoomMatch
™
array module loudspeakers
RoomMatch loudspeakers connect and configure easily to PM8500 amplifiers. Built-in loudspeaker and array EQs together with suitable
output power ratings make the PM8500 amplifier an ideal counterpart in designs using RoomMatch array module loudspeakers.
interfacing with a Controlspace® esP-88 engineered sound processor
PowerMatch amplifiers are designed to integrate with existing ControlSpace products, including the ESP-88 processor. While
PowerMatch amplifiers can operate without an ESP-88 processor, the ESP-88 processor enables comprehensive signal routing,
processing, control, and distribution capability. When the ControlSpace ESP-88 processor is used with an installed ESPLink output
card, the ESP-88 becomes the input signal entry and processing point. Multiple PM8500 amplifiers equipped with PM ESPLink cards
can receive and pass-through 8 channels of uncompressed digital audio. Figure 1 below shows an example of one ESP-88 processor
sharing 8 channels of audio to three PM8500 amplifiers. Visit pro.bose.com for details on the full ControlSpace line of products and
accessories.

Rack Mounting
The PM8500 is designed to fit standard 19-inch (48 cm) rack equipment, occupying 2 rack-units (RU) in height. Use four fasteners with
washers (not supplied) to mount the amplifier front panel rack ears to the equipment rack rails. Rack-mount tabs are also provided on
the rear of the chassis to secure the amplifier.
Ventilation
The PM8500 is designed to operate under wide conditions, with continuous operation at 40° C ambient temperature. However, to
ensure safe operation, the front panel, side and rear airflow vents should never be blocked. Air flows into the front of the unit and exits
the rear and side vents. The internal fans automatically increase speed when the amplifier is producing higher output power. Should the
unit exceed safe operating temperature, a gradual reduction of gain will automatically be applied for thermal protection. If the automatic
gain reduction does not reduce operating temperatures to safe conditions, the unit will mute all outputs and the red FAULT LED will
illuminate on the front panel.
AC Mains outlet Requirements
The PM8500 features an efficient, universal switch-mode power supply with Power Factor Correction and can operate with AC Mains
line voltages from 100 to 240 volts at 50/60 Hz. With typical music program material, the PM8500 provides full rated power from a single
20-amp, 120V (common in USA) AC mains outlet, or single 16-amp, 230V (common in Europe) mains outlet.
High-power amplifiers draw large amounts of current from the AC mains. Use of extension cords to power the amplifier could introduce
significant impedance and a resulting voltage drop on the mains that may interfere with normal operation of the amplifier.
In countries like Japan where 100V AC mains are used, the following guidelines will be helpful to ensure optimal performance from the
PM8500:
• Ensure a minimum of 100V AC at the amplifier plug when the amplifier is idle.
• Use a dedicated mains circuit for each amplifier.
• Locate the amplifiers as close as possible to the mains outlet.
• If used, extension cords should be 14 AWG (2 mm2 diameter) or larger.
• Extension cords should be less than 2 meters (6.6 ft) in length.

Wiring output Connectors
The PM8500 features flexible software-selectable output configurations. Power can be allocated between 2 and 8 output channels for
specified low-impedance and high-impedance (70V and 100V) loudspeaker loads. The following table describes the behavior of the four
available output modes.
Mode
Description
Mono
Each channel operates independently, and will drive 2 to 16 Ohm loads
V-Bridge
I-Share
Quad
Channel pairs are combined to deliver 2x voltage and will drive high impedance (70V or 100V) and 4 to 16 Ohm loads
Channel pairs are combined to deliver 2x current, and will drive 2 Ohm loads
Two channel pairs are combined to deliver 2x voltage and 2x current while driving high impedance (70V or 100V) or 4 Ohm loads
The loudspeaker outputs utilize two (2) high-current, 8-pin locking terminal block connectors (Phoenix Contact COMBICON® Part
#1778120, supplied) that accept cables from 10 to 24 AWG (5.3 - 0.2 mm2 ) in diameter.
Note: Use Class 2 wiring for speaker connections.
To wire the output connector:
1. Strip the insulation off each speaker terminal to expose 10 mm (3/8") of bare wire.
2. Insert each wire into the correct position on the block connector. Use a small flat-blade (or appropriate) screwdriver to secure
the wire.
3. Firmly press the block connector into the receptacle on the amplifier until the left and right latches snap into place.

About the Alarm log and Fault indicator
The PowerMatch™ amplifier monitors operating temperature, power supply status, amplifier status, open and short wiring, and
additional conditions for issues.
When issues are detected, information is stored in the amplifier in an internal log found by accessing
MAiN MeNU < UTiliTy < AlARM log from the front panel.
Information from the alarm log can also be viewed using ControlSpace® Designer™ software. In systems where ControlSpace Designer
software is actively connected, either via USB or Ethernet, the time and date of the alarm condition is appended to the alarm log entry.
Locally stored alarm information is sent to ControlSpace Designer software upon connection.
Critical internal system-related issues are always considered faults and will trigger the fault-notification output and the Fault LED on the
front panel. However, you have the ability to select whether certain conditions are faults using ControlSpace Designer software. Refer to
the ControlSpace Designer software documentation for details on how to view and manage alarms.
The table below lists the fault conditions that you can elect to use.
