Product Description

The Triad Orbit IO-A1A Aluminum Short Telescopic Boom Arm provides a compact, lightweight extension for professional audio, video, broadcast, and production mounting systems. Designed around Triad Orbit's innovative iO quick-change system, the IO-A1A allows users to expand compatible mounting configurations while maintaining the flexibility to quickly install, reposition, or remove accessories.

Featuring a telescoping aluminum construction with an adjustable extension range of 9.5” to 12.7”, the IO-A1A provides additional reach for positioning microphones, tablets, and other compatible production accessories around mixing consoles, studio workstations, and broadcast environments.

The shorter extension range makes the IO-A1A particularly useful for compact workstations where precise equipment placement is required without introducing the additional length of a full-size boom arm.

Lightweight Aluminum Telescopic Construction

The IO-A1A features a lightweight aluminum design that offers a weight reduction of approximately 6.4 ounces compared to the traditional steel IO-A1 telescopic arm.

The adjustable telescopic section allows users to extend or retract the arm to accommodate specific mounting requirements.

Whether positioning a talkback microphone near a mixing console, adjusting the reach of a tablet holder, or extending an accessory away from a workstation, the IO-A1A provides a compact and adaptable mounting solution.

Its lightweight construction is particularly beneficial for portable production systems and modular mounting configurations where minimizing unnecessary weight is desirable.

Triad Orbit iO Quick-Change System

The IO-A1A incorporates Triad Orbit's modular iO quick-change system, allowing it to integrate with compatible stands, clamps, mounting plates, orbital booms, and accessories.

Unlike traditional threaded boom extensions that require repeated assembly and disassembly, the iO connection allows compatible components to be quickly attached, removed, and relocated.

The IO-A1A can be combined with a variety of Triad Orbit products, including:

• Triad Orbit IO-WSP Wall Stud Mount: Provides a fixed mounting foundation for compatible modular assemblies when used with appropriate connecting components

• Triad Orbit IO-C2 Mini Clamp: Offers a portable mounting point on compatible desks, equipment frames, stands, and other structures

• Triad Orbit OA Orbit Arm: Provides additional angular adjustment and articulation when combined with the IO-A1A

• Triad Orbit IO-VM VESA Mount Adapter: Allows compatible displays to be incorporated into appropriately supported mounting configurations

• Triad Orbit IO-Vector: Allows the IO-A1A to be incorporated into specialized stereo microphone arrays and Decca Tree configurations

These accessories can be combined to create customized mounting systems for recording, broadcast, and live production applications.

LM Cases Triad Orbit Ready Integration

As part of the expanding LM Cases Triad Orbit Ready accessory ecosystem, the IO-A1A provides a compact telescopic extension option for professional console cases and workstations.

Select LM Cases console cases feature custom recessed mounting pockets specifically designed to accommodate the Triad Orbit IO-WSP steel mounting plate. Each mounting location incorporates heavy-duty threaded inserts and dedicated black stainless steel mounting bolts for securing the IO-WSP to the case.

Once an IO-WSP is installed, compatible Triad Orbit accessories can be added to the workstation to create customized equipment mounting configurations.

The IO-A1A can be incorporated into these assemblies to position microphones, tablets, and other compatible accessories around the mixing console.

Its shorter extension range is particularly well suited for applications where equipment must remain close to the operator, such as front-of-house talkback microphones, monitor mixing control tablets, or compact utility mounting configurations.

When combined with the Triad Orbit OA articulating mount, the IO-A1A offers additional positioning flexibility, allowing accessories to be adjusted for different operators and production requirements.

Professional Studio & Broadcast Applications

Beyond LM Cases console workstations, the IO-A1A can be incorporated into a variety of professional studio and broadcast mounting systems.

In recording studios, the compact telescopic arm provides additional flexibility for microphone positioning and specialized recording configurations.

When combined with the Triad Orbit IO-Vector system, the IO-A1A can also be used to create stereo microphone arrays, Decca Trees, and other multi-microphone configurations.

For broadcast facilities, podcast studios, and production workstations, the IO-A1A provides a compact way to extend equipment mounting positions without relying on additional floor stands.

Its modular quick-change system also makes it suitable for temporary installations and touring applications where equipment must be assembled and removed efficiently.

Build Your Triad Orbit Mounting System

The Triad Orbit IO-A1A is a versatile component for expanding the capabilities of the Triad Orbit iO mounting system.

Whether positioning a talkback microphone at front of house, extending a tablet holder alongside a mixing console, or building a specialized studio microphone array, the IO-A1A provides a lightweight, compact, and adjustable extension solution.

For applications requiring greater reach, the Triad Orbit IO-A2A Aluminum Long Telescopic Boom Arm provides a longer adjustable extension range of 15.5” to 24.8”.

Combine the IO-A1A with compatible Triad Orbit mounting plates, clamps, orbital arms, and adapters to create a customized mounting configuration for your specific production requirements.

Please Note: The IO-A1A is a telescopic extension arm and requires compatible Triad Orbit mounting components for installation. Mounting plates, clamps, orbital adapters, and additional accessories are sold separately unless otherwise specified. Supported equipment weight depends on the complete mounting configuration, extension length, mounting surface, and installation.
