Features
The SX-M100 conference system is a flexible discussion system that can be configured with the versatile units introduced below.
The standard system supports a conference of up to 60 delegates. Connecting the SX-E120 Expansion Unit (not supplied) allows the system to support up to 120 delegates. The SX-T100 Telephone Coupler (not supplied) allows the use of a telephone line during a conference. By using the telephone, a person not actually in the conference hall can also take part in the conference.
The standard system consists of the following units.
•SX-M100 Control Unit
This unit controls the conference system.
The control unit can be mounted in a 19-inch rack.
•Chairman’s Unit/Delegate’s Unit
–SX-C100A/SX-D100A Chairman’s Unit/Delegate’s Unit: Desktop type. You can move these units freely in the conference room.
–SX-C150/SX-D150 Chairman’s Unit/Delegate’s Unit: Desk-mounted type. These units are fixed to the desks.
These units feature both a microphone and speaker.
Use the above combination of the chairman’s unit and delegate’s unit.
•SX-T100 Telephone Coupler
This coupler is used to connect the control unit to a telephone line. Using this coupler allows a person to take part in a conference from a remote location, even from overseas.
