SOMMER CABLE Supply Conference Room Solutions Fully Networked

The demands on modern conference and training rooms have changed completely over the past few years.
Even in small rooms we expect a perfectly working media integration these days. For instance, the room should automatically go to standby on time with the beginning of the seminar or the meeting, turn on e.g. the projector lamp, depending on the resource booking, wake up the amplifier, the mixing desk and other devices from standby mode and adjust the illumination. In the best case the same steps should be carried out again in the reverse order at the end of the event. Especially in view of today’s energy debates, saving energy by automated standby activation is becoming more and more important.
So far, all this could only be realised by means of very expensive and extremely complex media control systems. With the CARDINAL DVM 194 series SOMMER CABLE will present a new, very reasonably priced and fully modular device generation at the ISE 2013 in Amsterdam which offers an unprecedented flexibility.
All devices are fully assimilable into the the ethernet environment (LAN link out via built-in 100Base-Tmini switch) and are based on the same controller platform. The use of variable instruction sets ensures full compatibility with most common devices on the market (also with “large“ media controllers, building technology bus systems, displays, projectors etc). Set-up can be done quickly without programming skills through a web interface – like e.g. on an internet router at home. A pre-AUDIO VIDEO BROADCAST MEDIENTECHNIK HIFI programmed "plug and play" solution is also available. Via the IP interface maintenance and surveillance can also be remotely controlled, which in case of service will allow a fast and efficient troubleshooting process.
The devices are mechanically fully compatible with the popular SYSBOXX system and will easily slide in here.
A 2 RU frame will accept up to 4 devices! The voltage supply for all devices is established using 24 V DC system power supplies via a 4-pole XLR connection. Those system power supplies can also be mounted easily into the frame as well.
The CARDINAL DVM 194 series is a complete device line which has been developed for the requirements in many sectors. It can be used both as a totally closed system and as an open solution with free interfaces.
The typical applications for the CARDINAL DVM 194 devices would be:
•small to medium-sized conference/meeting/training rooms
•gastronomical facilities
•schools, auditoriums or public venues
