Chapter 1 System introduction
1.1 Overview
TAIDEN extends its portfolio of wireless conferencing
solutions by launching a compact complement,
HCS-5335 series Digital Infrared Wireless Conference
System. Its performance stays true to its predecessor
but features ingenious integration by combining the
transceiver and the control unit together. No changes
or further holes need to be made in the meeting rooms
to be equipped thanks to its wireless transmission of
audio signals and tabletop/on-tripod installation of the
new main unit, making the system an ideal solution for
small to medium sized multipurpose rooms or historical
buildings.
The system consists of one digital infrared wireless
conference combo unit, one digital audio power
amplifier and up to 200 digital infrared wireless
conference units.

1.3 System technology
1.3.1 Basic system concept
The system composition of one digital infrared wireless
conference combo unit, one digital audio power
amplifier and digital infrared wireless conference units:
The digital infrared wireless conference combo unit
receives infrared signals from every digital infrared
wireless conference unit and converts the signals into
audio which is transmitted to the digital audio power
amplifier, or into control signals which are convert into
carrier outputs and transmitted to the digital infrared
conference units.
1.3.2 IR radiation
Audio and control signals of HCS-5335 are transmitted
as modulated infrared light. Infrared radiation is part of
the electro-magnetic spectrum, which is composed of
visible light, radio waves and other types of radiation.
Its wavelength is longer in comparison with the
wavelength of visible light.
Infrared light cannot pass through opaque walls and
ceilings and therefore guarantees privacy of the
meeting by avoiding of being intercepted or disturbed.
In addition, infrared light has no radio radiation and a
license is not required when operating infrared light
systems.
1.3.3 Aspects of infrared signal transmission
Just like visible light, infrared radiation is reflected from
hard surfaces and refracted by hyaloid (glassy or
transparent appearance) items. Objects in the
conference venue as well as structure of the walls and
ceilings will influence the distribution of infrared light.
Infrared radiation is reflected from almost all hard
surfaces. Smooth, bright or shiny surfaces reflect well.
Dark or rough surfaces absorb a large part of the
infrared energy. Usually, surfaces opaque to visible
light are also opaque to infrared radiation.
Shadows from walls and furniture will influence the
transmission of infrared light. This can be solved by
using a sufficient quantity of transceivers. They should
be positioned in a manner to provide an infrared field
strong enough to cover the whole conference area.
1.3.4 Carriers and channels
TAIDEN HCS-5335 compact digital infrared wireless
conference system adopts 1~6 MHz wave band (IEC
61603 BAND Ⅲ,Ⅳ), shown as figure 1.2.. And the
Channels and corresponding frequencies refer to table
1.1.

Chapter 2 Digital IR Wireless Conference System Combo Unit
2.1 Overview
HCS-5335M Compact Digital Infrared Wireless
Conference System Combo Unit is the heart of the
HCS-5335 wireless conference system. Its audio,
control and power signals all transmitted over a single
Cat.5 cable from the highly-integrated main unit with
infrared receiver and a built-in digital signal processor.
It outputs mixed microphone signal through DanteTM
network and integrates Web server configuration and
control of the main unit, discussion units and auto
tracking cameras as well
HCS-5335MA features tabletop installation and ceiling
reflection, especially suitable for small to medium-sized
conference rooms with a light-colored ceiling not
exceeding 5 meters

2.3 Installation and connection
HCS-5335MA is tabletop mounted and it can also be
fixed on HCS-5335ZJ stand.
HCS-5335M is highly-integrated main unit with infrared
receiver and a built-in digital signal processor with its
audio, control and power signals all transmitted over a
single Cat.5 cable.
Discussion and auto video tracking can be realized by
connecting the HCS-5335M to the Ethernet PoE switch
via a Cat.5 cable for communication with other network
devices such as PC, web camera and HPA-160D/02
together with louder speakers and HCS-5335C/D
conference units.
