REVOLUTO – THE FREEDOM TO TALK WITHOUT A GOOSENECK MICROPHONE

2
Discover freedom of speech – with Revoluto, the
new microphone station that combines high flexi-
bility and impressive quality.
The traditional gooseneck microphone has been
completely left out, which means a whole new
freedom for the speaker, no annoying adjustment
of the microphone and, above all, less limitation
of movement when speaking.
Even when the speaker turns his or her head,
stands up or leans back, the sound quality
remains the same. Because the pick-up pattern
of Revoluto, which provides constant sound
quality of speech, is considerably wider than
that of traditional microphones. As a result, the
speaker can completely focus on his or her talk
and listeners.

microphone station with
gooseneck microphone
The basis of this new freedom is the new paten-
ted microphone array technology. The principle
consists of several microphone capsules being
intelligently arranged and wired, resulting in a
pick-up characteristic which is perfectly suited to
conference applications.
Thanks to the corridor characteristic, there are
no fluctuations in volume, even if the speaker
moves his or her head, leans back or stands up.
The sound quality remains constant.

NetRateBus
The NetRateBus is the network platform which
connects participants with each other. This
completely innovative and extremely reliable
conference network resembles the Internet in
terms of its structure. It provides fully digital
transmission of audio and control data and,
offers clear advantages compared to conven-
tional systems:
54 audio channels in CD quality, which can
be distributed throughout the entire con-
ference network
Translation desks can be incorporated at
any point in the conference network
Separate conferences in individual rooms or
combined with each other (multisession)
High operating reliability (cf. page 7)

The control unit MCS-D 200 is the brain of the
conference system and features an integrated
power supply for the microphone stations, an
integrated audio interface and a connection for
controlling PCs and multimedia appliances. The
system can be conveniently configured and
operated via pull down menue in the integrated
display or via the iCNS software.

MCS-Digital
The fully digital, wired conference system
MCS-Digital provides the basis for efficient
conferences and meetings. Furthermore, the
open system architecture enables a wide range
of applications – from the incorporation in
simple discussion units to highly complex
parliament installations.

OPERATING RELIABILITY
For each component in the MCS-Digital conference
system, which is connected via the NetRateBus
(cf. graphic), a high degree of operating reliability
has been integrated.
THE CONTROL UNIT
Parallel to the control unit, a second control unit can
be integrated in the system as backup.
THE WIRING
The microphone stations and the control unit can
be wired in a closed loop.
THE POWER SUPPLY
If a power supply fails or is switched off for
maintenance, the power reserve automatically
distributes itself throughout the network.
THE MICROPHONE STATION
During a running conference, faulty microphone
stations can be replaced or additional micro-
phone stations can be integrated by hot plug-
ging.
DATA SECURITY
Additional data connections as redundancy for
specific sections or the entire network can be
directly connected to the control unit.
