The language of perfection

The INTEGRUS Wireless Language Distribution System has been specifically designed for multilingual meetings to enable attendees to understand speeches in their native language. The audio signals of simultaneous interpretations are transmitted to pocket receivers and headphones via radiators utilizing proven, tamper-free infrared technology. Participants can move freely around the location whilst still able to follow proceedings.

Presenting the family

The system is highly flexible and offers exceptional audio quality, making it ideal for parliaments, conference centers and international organizations, no matter what the size of the event or venue. As a result, it has become the wireless, infrared language distribution system of choice for event organizers.

IP connectivity and future-proof expandability

Thanks to the built-in OMNEO IP architecture, the INTEGRUS OMNEO Transmitter can seamlessly interconnect with the fully IP-based DICENTIS Conference devices. This allows all existing DICENTIS users – building owners, rental companies and system integrators specifying the DICENTIS conference system – to integrate INTEGRUS in an easy, time-saving and future-proof way. By becoming part of a complete IP workflow, open industry standards and protocols such as Dante and AES67/70 can also be used.

Mixed configuration flexibility

In mixed configuration, the OMNEO transmitter can use the DICENTIS audio feed together with the Dante channels from third-party devices. The software update also introduces the option to configure the channel number and monitor the input levels of each Dante channel in real-time through a user-friendly, web-based software interface, significantly enhancing the user experience. Another enhancement is the new option of using Dante channels for stereo streaming, doubling the bandwidth and thereby increasing the system's superior sound quality.

What are the true benefits of INTEGRUS?

Secure, tamper-free infrared audio signal distribution

As the infrared radiator cannot pass signals through walls and ceilings, conference integrity can be guaranteed, which is crucial when sensitive issues are being discussed. For conference venues with multiple rooms, no interference occurs between separate conferences or sessions.

If the same language distribution is required in multiple meeting rooms of the conference building, slave transmitters and radiators are to be placed in these rooms.

Flexible, license-based expansion of up to 32 channels

INTEGRUS can provide a maximum of 32 audio channels (the floor and up to 31 languages), making it ideal to cover even the largest of international conferences. Only available channels are displayed on the receiver so users don’t waste time scrolling through empty channels to find their desired language. A new, cost-effective licensing model allows users to fit the number of required audio channels to the exact number of languages to be transmitted. The basic transmitter setup starts with four channels; up to 28 additional channels can be unlocked via software license as needed.

Perfect audio quality for superior listening experience

INTEGRUS offers superior sound quality with a signal/noise ratio of more than
80 dB, allowing conference participants to listen to speeches in real comfort. This means they are less likely to tire and lose concentration over longer conference sessions. And because INTEGRUS calls on infrared technology, the sound comes out exactly as it goes in and delegates don’t need to be physically connected to the system and can enjoy freedom of movement during sessions.

Easy and seamless integration with the IP-based DICENTIS Conference System

All language settings are automatically detected and transferred between the DICENTIS Conference System and the INTEGRUS OMNEO Transmitter, and the entire setup can be conveniently configured in the DICENTIS Meeting Application. Once integrated into an IP network with the DICENTIS Conference System, it is also possible to take full advantage of flexible power options supporting PoE and redundancy concepts. The IP infrastructure further ensures enhanced security by state-of-the-art encryption.

Hassle-free operation and maintenance with long battery lifetime

Aside from the added IP connectivity of the OMNEO transmitter, the INTEGRUS Wireless Language Distribution System offers the same great user experience, comprehensive feature set and hassle-free operation. The pocket receivers manage their own charging process to offer best possible charging performance and maximum battery life. The charging units can accommodate up to 56 receivers and a full charge in 105 minutes. A fully charged battery lasts for up to 200 hours operation with alkaline batteries and up to 75 hours operation with a battery pack.

Full control over audio input sources via a web interface

Application areas

INTEGRUS is the ideal system for use in conference centers and for international organizations, or whenever simultaneous interpretation is required.

Large international conferences

Large international conferences and meetings often involve a substantial public attendance and a variety of nationalities, all of whom need to understand what is being discussed in detail. This includes delegates as well as journalists and other members of the audience. The INTEGRUS Wireless language distribution system provides everyone with the most comfortable audio experience to hear simultaneous interpretation of speeches in their own language. DICENTIS Conference devices are placed on stage to capture presentations and speeches. The words are simultaneously translated by interpreters into a variety of languages that are then transmitted via INTEGRUS transmitters and radiators to the pocket receivers on which participants have selected their desired language. Additional languages from remote interpretation hubs can be easily fed into the DICENTIS Conference System by using Dante. Combined with the on-site languages, all interpretation languages can be distributed via INTEGRUS. With this wireless language distribution system, members of the audience benefit from a less tiring and more enjoyable conference experience, even when attending longer events. And they can enjoy freedom of movement around even the biggest conference venues.

Smaller multilingual meetings

INTEGRUS also offers an air of prestige to smaller multilingual meetings that bring individuals of different nationalities around a table and where simultaneous interpretation is needed. INTEGRUS can be used with the table top or flush discussion devices of the DICENTIS Conference System. Delegates can listen to simultaneous interpretation of the discussion via the built-in channel selector on their discussion devices, and can add their own voice to the debate by using the system’s sleek microphones. Other members of the audience can listen to what is being said via INTEGRUS Pocket receivers and headphones. Additionally, technicians and venue owners will enjoy the flexibility of the INTEGRUS Wireless Language Distribution System, as no time-consuming set-up and break down is needed.

Standalone system capabilities

When operated in manually controlled mode as a standalone system, the INTEGRUS Wireless Language Distribution System can be deployed as a music distribution system for various environments like fitness centers or silent discos, allowing users to choose between different music channels. In multi-language cinemas, audience members can benefit by selecting their preferred audio language – all while watching the same movie show. Further applications include museums, tour guide systems, stage monitoring, interpretation schools where users can simultaneously listen to the original speech and the interpretation language, and more.

Language distribution components

The INTEGRUS family comprises innovative, high-quality and reliable products for optimal sound experience, including a stylish 1RU OMNEO Transmitter that is at the heart of the system, a number of digital radiators, pocket receivers, a choice of headphones and charging units.
