– participate in a meeting or conference.
– monitor and control a meeting or conference (chairperson use, depending on the
configuration).

Connecting DICENTIS devices

The DICENTIS Conference System can be quickly and easily configured as a daisy‑chain
configuration or as a star configuration:
– Daisy‑chain configuration: Uses dedicated cabling, consisting of CAT‑5e cables including
two additional power conductors (see Typical system setup, page 10 ).
– Star configuration: Each DICENTIS device is connected with an individual standard
CAT‑5e cable. An Ethernet switch is also required for providing Power over Ethernet
(PoE).
Notice!
i
When Power over Ethernet is used, DICENTIS devices cannot be daisy‑chained.
The star configuration makes use of connectors underneath the devices, ensuring for a neat,
tidy system installation, especially advantageous for TV coverage.
To connect the system network cables to the DICENTIS devices (refer to the following figure):
1. Insert the system network cable/connector (2).
2. Lead the system network cable through the cable guides (3).
