Structuring and controlling the conference system
8 | ADN CU1
Large conference system with redundant ring topology
The redundant ring topology ensures that, should one conference unit or system
cable fail or be manipulated, all other conference units of the cable ring will
continue to function reliably.
For setting up a large conference system with redundant ring topology, you require
one ADN CU1 central unit for controlling the conference and additional ADN PS
power supplies for powering the conference units. The conference units are inter-
connected in rings and two rings can be connected to each ADN PS power supply.
Calculating the voltage supply of the conference units
The “ADN Cable Calculator” software allows you to calculate the voltage supply on
the individual sections of a cable string or cable ring and to plan the structure of
the conference system. The software is available from your Sennheiser partner or
from the “Product 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 detailed instruction manual “ADN Conference System”.
Configuring and controlling the conference system
For configuring the conference system, you can either use the operating menu of
the central unit or the “Conference Manager” software. The software also allows
you to control conferences via a graphical interface.
