Structuring the SDC 8000 system
This chapter provides information on how your system can be structured
and which components are required for the different expansion stages.
Finally, this chapter also gives an overview of additional audio equipment
that can be connected to the system.
Interconnecting the conference/interpreter consoles
Via the system cables, interconnect the consoles in cable strings.
When interconnecting the consoles in strings, please observe the
following:
y Conference and interpreter consoles can be interconnected in any
desired order.
y A maximum of 15 consoles can be interconnected in one string.
y All consoles must be supplied with a voltage of at least 30 V (see
“Determining maximum cable lengths” on page 40).
Connecting cable strings to a central unit
Via each of the six ports ƻ of the central unit, you can connect a cable
string.
y You can connect up to 90 (6 x 15) consoles to a single central unit.
y The distance between the central unit and the first console of a cable
string must not exceed 100 m.
Interconnecting up to 10 central units
For conference and interpretation systems with up to 900 consoles, you
can interconnect a total of 10 central units (see “Interconnecting several
central units” on page 48).
The three expansion stages
Depending on the number of conference participants, three different
expansion stages are distinguished:
y Expansion stage (1) comprising one central unit with up to 15 consoles
y Expansion stage (2) comprising one central unit with up to 90 consoles
y Expansion stage (3) comprising several central units with up to
900 consoles
