System installation overview
It is advisable to participate in the DCN multimedia conference system training before you
install, prepare, configure and operate a DCN multimedia system.
The DCN multimedia system is an IP based conference system which runs on an OMNEO
compatible Ethernet network. It is used for distributing and processing audio, video and data
signals.
The system can be quickly and easily configured as a daisy‑chain configuration (see Typical
system setup, page 7), or as a star configuration:
– Daisy‑chain configuration: Uses dedicated cabling, consisting of CAT‑5e cables including
two additional power conductors.
– Star configuration: Each device is connected with an individual standard CAT‑5e cable.
An Ethernet switch is also required for providing Power over Ethernet (PoE).
Notice!
When Power over Ethernet is used, devices cannot be daisy‑chained.
