Bosch Conferencing and Public Address Systems

 

-- Superior sound quality optimized for speech

-- Proprietary “Possible-To-Speak” function provides a visual indication when the microphone is available

 

Las Vegas, Nev., June 9, 2010: Bosch Security Systems is pleased to launch the CCS 900 Ultro in the Americas at InfoComm 2010 – a new discussion system designed and developed by Bosch experts in Europe that combines elegant styling with a host of innovative features.

 

The CCS 900 Ultro Discussion System is intended primarily for small- to medium-sized meeting areas, including town halls, local business centers and courtrooms. It offers an array of new features that make it easy to manage meetings, including an advanced, patent-pending “Possible-To-Speak” function that provides a visual indication of when the microphone is available for a delegate to take the floor.

 

The system’s superior speech intelligibility is assured by Bosch’s proprietary DAFS (Digital Acoustic Feedback Suppressor) technology, which has been proven over many years in the company’s conferencing and public address systems.

 

With this new all-in-one system, users can listen to proceedings and easily participate directly in discussions. The Control Unit can record and play back up to 64 hours of discussion using a 2 GB 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 easy-to-use operating modes give the CCS 900 Ultro added flexibility, allowing more focus on the discussion. One to four microphones can be active simultaneously during meetings, with the chairman always having speaker priority.

 

Unused microphones are switched off automatically if delegates forget to switch off their units. Moreover, to support external participants (during town-council meetings, for example), extra microphones (wired, wireless, handheld or podium) can be easily connected to the system.

 

As a plug-and-play, all-in-one discussion solution, the CCS 900 Ultro requires no special training or operator. Anyone can begin using the intuitive controls immediately.

 

The system is also designed for expansion up to 150 units, with the possibility of adding a wide range of other equipment and auxiliary components, including an interpretation system, language distribution, a public address system and an interface for tele/video conferencing.
