Bosch DCNM-APS2 Audio Powering Switch with DICENTIS Multimedia for DICENTIS Conference System, Second Generation

You can elevate your DICENTIS Conference System with the advanced DCNM-APS2 Audio Powering Switch, a second-generation device designed to seamlessly route, control, and process audio while providing essential power to multimedia devices. This sophisticated switch boasts an intelligent adaptive acoustic feedback suppressor and echo cancellation technology, ensuring crystal-clear audio quality during conferences. The inclusion of two 5-band parametric equalizers further enhances speech intelligibility, allowing for fine-tuning of audio to suit any meeting environment.

The DCNM-APS2 is equipped with two versatile audio inputs, enabling the integration of external analog audio signals into your system. This feature is particularly useful for incorporating sound from various multimedia sources. Additionally, the mix-minus functionality is invaluable for connecting the DICENTIS Conference System to video conferencing equipment, ensuring seamless communication across platforms.

Audio outputs on the device are dual-purpose, serving both mix-minus configurations and the connection of external sound reinforcement systems. This flexibility allows for a broad range of audio setups, from intimate boardroom discussions to larger, amplified gatherings.

At the heart of the DCNM-APS2 is a built-in Ethernet switch, which interconnects all devices within the network. The support for loop-through connections is a standout feature, allowing for daisy-chaining of DICENTIS discussion devices. This not only simplifies installation but also provides cable redundancy, ensuring a reliable and robust system.

The audio powering switch is designed for effortless remote control, with no user controls on the unit itself. This ensures a sleek, unobtrusive presence in any conference setting. The rear mains switch powers the unit, while a ground-lift switch helps eliminate any potential ground loop issues.

Visual indicators include a front LED displaying power status with green (power on), amber (standby), and blinking (no connection to the system) signals. The rear LED indicates power availability and overload conditions for each powered socket with green and red lights, respectively. Ethernet connectivity is monitored through yellow and amber LEDs for each socket.

The DCNM-APS2's interconnection capabilities are extensive, featuring two three-pole XLR balanced audio line inputs and outputs with galvanic separation, four RCA unbalanced audio line inputs and outputs, and a mains power supply with auto-ranging input. Ethernet connectivity is robust, with one socket for Ethernet without power and four sockets with Ethernet with varying power supplies, all compatible with RJ45 connectors.

Independent powered sockets ensure that a short circuit in one does not affect the others, and the support for hot plug-and-play adds to the convenience and reliability of the system. With these features, the DCNM-APS2 Audio Powering Switch stands as an essential component for any professional DICENTIS Conference System setup, promising impeccable audio management and device integration.
