The Bosch Security Systems CCS 900 Ultro discussion system is intended for use in small- to medium-sized meeting areas, and includes an advanced, Possible-To-Speak function that provides a visual indication of when the microphone is available for a delegate to take the floor.
Speech intelligibility is promised by Bosch’s proprietary DAFS (Digital Acoustic Feedback Suppressor) technology, which has been proven through its use in the company’s conferencing and public address systems. The Control Unit can record and play back up to 64 hours of discussion using a 2Gb SD card. It also features a 60-second buffer, enabling the SD card to be changed when full to allow recording to continue without any data loss.
The delegate and chairman units include a built-in loudspeaker, a single-touch-activated microphone and two headphone sockets with volume control. The chairman units also include a priority button, which temporarily or permanently mutes all active delegate microphones and sounds an ‘attention’ tone. Four operating modes allowing flexibility of use, and up to four microphones can be active simultaneously during meetings, with the chairman having priority. Unused microphones are switched off automatically if delegates forget to switch off their units. Extra microphones (wired, wireless, handheld or podium) can also be easily connected to the system.
The system is also designed for expansion up to 150 units, with the possibility of adding a range of other equipment and auxiliary components, including an interpretation system, language distribution, a public address system and an interface for tele/video conferencing.
