Structuring a wired conference system
Basic requirements for a conference system comprising wired conference units
For safe operation of the conference system, make sure that all wired conference
units are supplied with a voltage of at least 35 V! The voltage supplied depends on
the number of connected conference units and on the cable lengths. The standard
cable length between the central unit or power supply and the first conference unit
is 50 m max. and the standard cable length between the individual conference
units is 2 to 5 m.
If these cable lengths are observed, safe operation of conference systems with the
following number of conference units is ensured:
•
small conference systems comprising only an ADN CU1 central unit
– 30-40 conference units connected in simple strings
•
large conference systems comprising an ADN CU1 central unit and a max. of
15 ADN PS power supplies
– max. 400 conference units connected in simple strings or in ring topology
per ADN PS power supply
– 60-70 conference units connected in simple strings
– 30-40 conference units connected in ring topology
If cable lengths are shorter, it might be that more conference units can be used.
ADN D1 delegate units and ADN C1 chairperson units can be combined in an arbi-
trary order. The number of chairperson units, however, is limited to 10 max. per
conference system. All wired components of the conference system are intercon-
nected using SDC CBL RJ-45 system cables.
Calculating the voltage supply of the conference units
The “
ADN Cable Calculator
” software allows you to calculate the voltage supply of
the wired conference units on the individual sections of a cable string or cable ring
and to plan the structure of the conference system. The software is included on the
DVD-ROM (supplied with the ADN CU1) or is available from your Sennheiser part-
ner or from the “Downloads” area on the product page at www.sennheiser.com.
For further information on the installation and use of the “ADN Cable Calculator”
software, refer to the help section of the “
ADN Cable Calculator
” software and to
the ADN system manual.
