5 General Guidelines
Installation5.1
The CU 6105 is suitable for either table-top or
19-inch rack-mounted use. Four feet (for table
top use) and two mounting brackets (for rack
mounting) are supplied.
When installing in a 19” rack the supplied 19”
brackets shall be fixed to the front side of the CU
6105 Central Unit by unscrewing the crews
holding the top and button cover and then fix the
brackets using the same screws.
The unit has a low noise built-in fan taking air in
at the left side of the unit and blowing the hot air
out at the right side. That allows units in 19”
racks to be stacked close with other units
without extra room for cooling air between
them. Please check that other units in the rack
will allow this.
Connect the CU 6105 to the various DCS 6000
units using shielded CAT5e (F/UTP or U/FTP)
cables following the guidelines in the next
chapter.
The operation and installation of the various DCS
6000 units is found in the User Manuals for the
specific units.
Cabling guidelines5.2
The Conference Units are connected to the CU
6105 Central Unit using shielded CAT5e (F/UTP
or U/FTP) cables and the following guidelines
have to be observed:
•The conference units are daisy chain
connected to the central unit
•The number of units, which can be connected
to CU 6105, depends on length of the feeding
cable and the length of the cable between
each unit.
If the feeding cables are short and the cables
between the units are short, more units can
be connected than if the feeding cable is long
and/or the cables are long between the units.
•Maximum cable length in one chain is 200 m
(before inserting RP 6004 Repeater in a
chain). This includes interconnection cables
between the units.
•Maximum cable length in one chain when
using RP 6004 Repeaters and Cat5e cables is
680 m.
•Cables must be AWG24 if the number of
units in the tables in section ‘5.3 Max. number
of units to be connected’ is to be used. AWG26
cables will not allow as many units. DIS
cables series EC 6001-xx are all AWG 24.
•It is desirable that the square of the feeding
cables are as big as possible to minimize the
voltage drop in the cables. Cat5e cables are
delivered in various gauges:
The following table shows the
Diameter/square for various AWG types:
Type
Diameter
Square
AWG22
0.64 mm
0.32 mm2
AWG23/1
0.57 mm
0.25 mm2
AWG24
0.53 mm
0.22 mm2
AWG26
0.42 mm
0.14 mm2
Although the DCS-LAN chain output connectors
have a 125 W supply, this 125 W power is not all
available with long cables, as there will be a
power drop in the feeding cable from the CU
6105 Central Unit to the units connected.
Please consult the next sections for details about
the number of units, which can be connected
depending on the cable length.

is defined as the cable connecting two
conference units. Feeding cables and
interconnection cables must be minimum
AWG24 if the number of units in the tables is to
be used.

display (1) will light-up after app. 15
seconds. Any connected EX 6010 Extension
Units will automatically be powered up. The
indication in the switch is lighting Green,
when power is switched ‘On’. A red light
indicates that power is connected to the
central unit, but the unit is not switched ‘On’
(Standby).
If power is removed due to a main power
failure, the unit will maintain the power state
when main power is re-established.

part device to this output may damage both the third
part device and the CU 6105.
3. LAN (TCP/IP) connector – A RJ45
connector for connection to local area
network (LAN). This connector is used to
connection to the built in web application or
for connection to SW 6000 or a control
system like AMX® or Crestron®.
4. Audio output A, B, C & D – Four male XLR3
connectors for connection of PA systems,
Audio Mixers, Audio Recorders or Language
Distribution System etc.
5. Audio input In 1 & In 2 – Two female XLR3
connectors for extra audio inputs. ‘In 1’ and
‘In 2’ is used to connect auxiliary
symmetrical audio signals such as a wireless
microphone to the floor language.
‘In 2’ is also used for connection of an
‘Emergency Evacuation Message (EEM)’
audio signal.
6. Emergency switch connector –A terminal
block socket for a single, ‘normally open’
switch. When the switch is closed, the audio
signal on the ‘In 2’ connector is distributed
on all output channels and loudspeakers,
overriding all other audio inputs.
Note: There is no volume control available for setting the
EEM volume on ‘In 2’. The volume has to be set at the
equipment generating the “Emergency Evacuation Message
(EEM)” audio signal.
