System Overview
System Overview
Integrus is a system for wireless distribution of audio signals via infrared radiation. It can be
used in a simultaneous interpretation system for international conferences where multiple
languages are used. To enable all participants to understand the discussion, interpreters
simultaneously translate the speaker's language as required. These interpretations are
distributed throughout the conference venue, and delegates select the language of their
choice and listen to it through headphones. The Integrus system can also be used for music
distribution (mono as well as stereo).
Figure 3.1: Integrus system overview (with DCN-system as input)
The Integrus Language Distribution System comprises one or more of the following:
Infrared transmitter
The transmitter is the core of the Integrus system. Four types are available:
– INT‑TX04 with inputs for 4 audio channels
– INT‑TX08 with inputs for 8 audio channels
– INT‑TX16 with inputs for 16 audio channels
– INT‑TX32 with inputs for 32 audio channels
The transmitter can be directly connected to the DCN Next Generation conference system
(see section Connection, page 42).

Audio input and Interpreter module
The audio input and interpreter’s module can be mounted in the transmitter housing to
connect the transmitter to a wide range of conference systems:
– LBB 3422/20 Integrus audio input and interpreters module to connect to analogue
discussion and conference systems (such as CCS 900) or to LBB 3222/04 6-channel
interpreters desks.
Infrared radiators
Two radiators are available:
– LBB 4511/00 medium-power radiator for small/ medium conference venues
– LBB 4512/00 high-power radiator for medium/large conference venues
The radiators can be mounted on walls, ceilings or floor stands.
Infrared receivers
Three multi-channel infrared receivers are available:
– LBB 4540/04 for 4 audio channels
– LBB 4540/08 for 8 audio channels
– LBB 4540/32 for 32 audio channels
The receivers can operate with a rechargeable NiMH battery pack or with disposable batteries.
Charging circuitry is incorporated in the receiver.
Charging equipment
Equipment is available for charging and storing 56 infrared receivers. Two versions are
available:
– LBB 4560/00 charging suitcase for portable systems
– LBB 4560/50 charging cabinet for permanent systems
