Example 6 - conference with remote interpretation
This example shows a conference that enables real-time
language interpretation at a remote location using the
LBB 3513 Analog Audio Input/Output (AIO) Module.
This saves time and reduces costs since interpreters no
longer have to be accommodated at the DCN site itself.
One AIO module per interpreter is used, and a telephone
coupler.
The floor or chosen language is sent to the interpreter
via the telephone coupler, and the translation is
returned via the coupler and AIO module, and distributed
throughout the DCN system. Conventional telephone
lines providing basic telephone speech can be used, or
for higher speech intelligibility, ISDN (recommended).
The contribution units and other equipment illustrated
above are as used in example 3.
The DCN AIO module provides the interface between
DCN systems and external analog audio signals.
Other application possibilities using this module
include linking different DCN systems to allow sharing
of interpretations, and offering extra scope for recording
translations and distributing external music and speech.
The AIO module can also interface with a Video
Conference System to make simultaneous interpretation
as lifelike as possible.
