INSTALLATION MANUAL DH 1e / ECA 2

DIGITAL HYBRID / ECHO CANCELLER

ECM 64e Options

Two internal cards are available for the ECM 64e. The

ECM 64eAD already includes both options.

ECA 2 Acoustic Echo Canceller

The ECA 2 is a continually adaptive Acoustic Echo
Canceller (AEC) module, required when the ECM 64e is
used for audio teleconferencing.

The ECA 2 installs by temporarily removing the top
cover of the ECM 64e and seating the module onto factory
installed standoffs on the motherboard. The connectors on
the ECA 2 and the motherboard are keyed, so there is only
one direction that the ECA 2 can be installed (see below).

Warning: To protect against damage from electrostatic
discharge (ESD) proper control measures must be followed.

See the Operators Manual, page Manual-10 for Acoustic
Echo Canceller operation.

DH 1e Digital Hybrid

The DH 1e Digital Hybrid allows audio conferencing
over a standard POTS 2-wire phone line. A 32 millisecond
Line Echo Canceller is utilized to remove line echo caused
by the four-wire to two-wire conversion. In a standard
telephone the echo caused by this conversion is actually
beneficial to the user as side-tone. With a conference system
line echo can cause all types of problems including feed­back and echo canceller problems.

The DH 1e installs by first temporarily removing the top
cover of the ECM 64e and the rear phone jack cover on the
back of the ECM 64e. Seat the DH 1e module from its
bottom side onto the J10 header. Make certain the header
pins are properly aligned with the DH 1e before applying
force to seat the card. Warning: To protect against damage

from electrostatic discharge (ESD) proper control measures
must be followed.
