The Multi-CCU LBB 3500/35 is functionally identical to the LBB 3500/15 Central Control Unit and is used to extend the capacity of the DCN system when more than 240 contribution units are required. Each subsequent slave CCU (max. 16) added, increases the system capacity by a further 240 units.

The unit can be used stand-alone and function as an LBB 3500/15 CCU. If the software package installed allows, the ‘Single’ operating mode can be selected by means of a front-panel push-button switch. The flexibility of the unit means that it can cater for virtually every conference requirement.

When the CCU is set to the Multi CCU system mode, a dedicated PC must be connected which acts as the master to all slave Multi-CCU’s connected. This PC must be fitted with a Multi-CCU PC card type LBB 3511/00 and Multi-CCU software type LBB 3586 (see Chapter 5.4).
