Installing Large Systems
DCS-LAN Power Calculator
For many installations, the CCU supplies sufficient power for the conference units. The CCU can power multiple units at a time
without additional equipment. The number of supported conference units depends on the size and layout of the installation.
To determine the specific requirements for your installation, use the DCS-LAN Power Calculator at https://dcslan.shure.com.
Power Depends on Installation Variables
To maximize the unit count without adding equipment:
Use multiple chain outputs from the CCU. Units should be divided evenly across each chain
Position the CCU so that the distance to the first microphone unit is as short as possible
Keep the total cable length as short as possible
Power Supplies for Additional Components
To add additional components to the system, add an inline or rackmount power supply to the DCS-LAN chain. Multiple power
supplies can be used to reach the maximum 3,800 supported units.
Note:
To exceed 250 units, make sure the FL6000-3800 license has been purchased and installed in the CCU.
Inline Power Supply
Use the PI-6000 power inserter to add an inline power supply for additional conference units. The unit may be connected at
any point in the chain to power the additional components.
Note:
The PI-6000 cannot be used in systems with redundant cabling, and does not refresh the data signal.
