2.1.2 Connection
2.1.2.1 To contribution units
HCS-8600 series CMU has 2 outlet (8P-DIN) trunk-line
cable sockets for connecting to contribution units.
TAIDEN full digital congress unit has two types of
connection interface, a) equipped with two cables with
standard 8P-DIN connectors; or b) equipped with two
RJ45 sockets for daisy chain connection
(recommended use of cat5e cable with a drain wire &
RJ45 plug with metal shield).
The contribution units (except paperless multimedia
congress terminals) are equipped with a cable with a
standard 8P-DIN male connector. When connecting the
CMU to the contribution units, just connect the male
connector of the first unit to the socket of the CMU.

(8P-DIN)
For a longer distance between the contribution unit and
the CMU/EMU, a CBL8PSD extension cable can be
used. One end of this cable is equipped with a 8P-DIN
male connector, the opposite end is equipped with a
female connector. Just connect the female connector of
the cable to the contribution unit, and connect the male
connector to the output of the main unit. The Cat5e
cable can also be used as an extension cable, one end
of the Cat5e cable is connected to output of the main
unit via the CBL8P2RJ45S converter cable; the other
end of the Cat5e cable is connected to the 8P-DIN
male connector of the contribution unit via the
CBL8S2RJ45S converter cable.

For “Closed Loop - Daisy Chain” ring connection,
HCS-8600MCLS Loop switcher is needed. The "TO
MU" port of HCS-8600MCLS is connected to the output
of the main unit via CBL8P2RJ45 converter cable; the
other port of HCS-8600MCLS is connected to the
contribution unit via CBL8P2RJ45 converter cable; at
last, connect the last contribution unit back to the CMU
via a CBL8PSD extension cable.

topology (8P-DIN)
Contribution unit equipped with two RJ45 sockets
supports daisy chain connection via cat5e cable. When
connecting the CMU to the contribution units, the
CBL8P2RJ45 converter cable is needed to connect the
the first unit to the socket of the CMU.
