Taiden HCS-8600 Series, Installation And Operating Manual

Page: 20 / 184

All Congress Units of HCS-8600 and HCS-4800 series
(except paperless multimedia terminal) are supplied by
the Congress Main Unit’s 8P-DIN interface. Since the
power capacity of the 8P-DIN interface is limited, it
must be ensured during installation that the added up
values of a) the total power consumption of all
Congress Units connected in each path and b) the
power loss in connection cables do in no case exceed
the maximum possible value delivered by each 6P-DIN
interface. Otherwise the system will not work properly
or automatic protection will be triggered. (refer to
section 5.1.1 connection principle).
6. Supports Dante protocol
Supports Dante protocol, an uncompressed,
multi-channel digital media networking technology.
Audio signal is available for transmission from
HCS-8600MA to other Dante compatible devices (such
as PA, audio recorder, etc.). The audio signals of two
venues are available for networking purposes via
Dante with near-zero latency and synchronization, and
without losing any sound quality.
7. Supports AES/EBU standard digital audio
transmission protocol
HCS-8600MA have one set of AES IN and AES OUT
interface, and can connect to AES/EBU compatible
digital audio devices via XLR 3-cord shielded cable.
8. Full system backup
In HCS-8600 series, dual connection backup is
implemented between the Congress Main Unit and the
Congress Extension Main Unit via optical fiber or Cat.5
cable. Combining a) dual Congress Main Unit hot
spare function, b) dual PC server hot spare function
and c) “Closed Loop - Daisy Chain” connection
topology between Congress Units, full system backup
is realized to improve system reliability.
9. System power management by central control
system
The power management protocol of HCS-8600 series
Congress Main Unit is open, enabling remote switch
on/off of power supply via RS-232 by a Central Control
System.
10. Connection facility for additional condenser or
dynamic microphones
In combination with HCS-8600MIO series audio input &
output device, additional condenser microphones or
dynamic microphones can be connected to the system
(phantom power supply provided), expanding user’s
application spectrum.
11. USB interfaces integrated in the congress main
unit
USB interfaces are integrated in the Congress Main
Unit a) for upgrading the system and saving system
parameters. Convenient for system maintenance; b) for
accessing to computer or Cloud Video Conference
System.
12. Fully compatible with
TAIDEN
HCS-4800 Fully
Digital Congress System
HCS-8600 Series Paperless Multimedia Congress
System is completely downward compatible to the
TAIDEN HCS-4800 Fully Digital Congress System and
features all its functions, e.g. conference sign-in, voting,
simultaneous interpretation, video tracking, intercom,
etc. Congress Units of the HCS-4800 series Congress
System can be looped into a HCS-8600 Congress
System. But some exclusive functions are only
available on HCS-8600 contribution units. Likewise,
Congress Units of the HCS-8600 Series Congress
System can also be inserted into a HCS-4800 Fully
Digital Congress System.
