The conference consoles
The conference console features a built-in loudspeaker, allowing the par-
ticipant to directly hear all audio information, e.g. speeches, presentations
or any other audio material. This decentralized “loudspeaker system”
ensures excellent sound quality at a pleasant volume throughout the
entire room.
The console’s electret microphone transmits every word in excellent audio
quality. The red signal light ring on the microphone serves as an indicator
of who is allowed to take the floor.
The conference consoles are available in six different versions with varying
levels of functions. All conference consoles have voting keys, allowing all
conference participants to participate in voting sessions from their con-
soles.
The conference consoles can also be operated with a central unit from the
SDC 8000 conference and interpretation system. In this case, the function-
ality of the conference consoles depends on the functions and features of
the central unit. The conference consoles are connected in series. One cable
string can comprise up to 20 conference consoles and up to six cable
strings (i.e. up to 120 conference consoles) can be connected to a single
central unit. You can, however, interconnect several central units to set up
conference systems with up to 1024 consoles.
