EDU-03 · Video & dataReference design. Two SDI cameras use two USB capture devices. The conferencing PC sends and receives remote media. Microphone send excludes remote return; the DSP uses playback as the AEC reference. Room and recording mixes are distinct. One HDMI programme is recorded, not all camera sources separately. REFERENCE DESIGN · PER ROOM Solid: media/data. Dashed: control/status. Room switch ×1 + installation set ×1; capture and audio share PC USB resources. Room mix excludes audience-zone voice lift unless separately designed. Return audio is excluded from USB send; content audio is shared by the application.
