# Divisible rooms - combining two HDL310 systems

Switchable configurations for an audio conferencing system can be useful for divisible rooms with movable dividers, partitions or walls. This article outlines using two HDL310 systems configured with a divisible room. This configuration is suitable for divisible rooms that change from two smaller rooms into one large room.

When setting up a switchable configuration an Ethernet switch is added to the HDL310 system installations. The switch routes the audio signal from the microphone and speaker bars to each connect module.

## Choosing a switch

When choosing an Ethernet switch the following specifications should be considered.

- Two-way A/B switch
- Minimum of 100 Mbps data rate
- Be able to pass PoE power
- 3 - RJ45 ports (A,B,C)

In most cases, an Ethernet A/B switch that meets these specifications will be suitable for setting up HDL310 systems into switchable configurations.

### Firmware requirements

Each HDL310 system should have the latest firmware version installed for an optimum audio conferencing experience.

### Room size considerations

Room size is an important consideration when configuring a divisible room. The divisible room should meet the size requirements for HDL310 systems when divided into smaller spaces and the size requirements for an HDL410 system when combined into a large space.

• HDL310 - spaces up to 30' x 30' (9.1 x 9.1 m)

• HDL410 - spaces up to 35' x 55' (10.7 x 16.8 m)

### HDL310 - combining two systems

Install the HDL310 systems according to the installation instructions, with the addition of the Ethernet switch as shown in the diagram below.
