You can use the CoCon in your Plixus network. There are two options to connect to the nameplate to your system. You can use the Plixus conference ports (1) or use the USB connection (2).

To daisy-chain the nameplate in a branch connected directly to the engine or a network extender plug in the CAT 5e cable into the conference port.

Connect to USB

It is also possible to connect the nameplate directly to a delegate unit using the USB connection. Use this option when you cannot mix the delegate unit and the nameplate because they require a different network speed (e.g. uniCOS and uniBOX units) or you want to use the nameplate independently of your conference system.
