Most wireless headset or earset microphones with an XLR out connection are supported for use with HDL410 systems and Voice Amplification Mode.


 Required before you start:

A balanced XLR to unbalanced 3.5mm TRS adapter cable is required to connect to the auxiliary ports on the HDL410 connect module. This cable is purchased separately. Please see your audiovisual reseller to purchase this cable.

NOTEThe connect module for the HDL410 system only supports mono and unbalanced audio inputs. 

Follow these steps to set up voice amplification:

  • Run the Ethernet cables to the RJ45 ports on each microphone and speaker bar
  • Connect your Ethernet cable to the network port on the back of the connect module
  • Plug your Ethernet cable into an available network port (router, modem, wall jack)
  • Connect the provided power supply to the connect module and plug it into an available outlet or power bar

Connect the wireless headset or earset system

  • Using the balanced XLR to unbalanced 3.5mm TRS adapter cable

  • Stand approximately 1 to 2 meters in front of the HDL410 microphone and speaker bars
  • Have another person stand at the back of the room or where students will be seated in the classroom
  • Start talking to test the amplification level
  • If a UC&C client (e.g. Microsoft® Teams, Zoom) will be used, test the amplification setup with a remote person in an audio or video conference

Adjust amplification

  • Increase or decrease the master volume output from the computer to the correct volume for the room
  • Using the gain control or dB settings on the transmitter, fine-tune your wireless microphone to ensure you are happy with the audio output
