Product(s) affected: DCN-NG & DCN-WAP
Version(s): all
Situation:
A DCN-NG system is installed with a DCN-WAP but needs to be expanded and an extra WAP needs to be added. Is this possible?
Explanation & solution:
Besides the fact that the DCN Wireless system is no longer available, the answer is ‘No’ due to limitations of the DCN-NG wireless system.
If another wireless system is required, it can be done in a separate DCN-NG system only.
The following is described in the old DCN-NG Wireless manual:
Multi-CCU system
A multi-CCU system is necessary if there is no capacity to connect all required DCN units or if you want to couple multiple rooms. All CCUs need to be connected with an optical cable to each other and with an Ethernet cable (Cat5e or better) to the switch (100 Mbit/s or better).
The following can be connected to a multi-CCU system:
- A maximum of 30 DCN-CCU2 devices (refer to Control capacity, page 78).
- A maximum of 4000 delegate positions.
- A maximum of 1 DCN-WAP.
