Overview
The Biamp TesiraCONNECT TC-5D is a five-port expansion device that links Tesira DSPs, Dante devices, USB extenders and PoE+ microphones or amplifiers over a single category cable. Four ports deliver PoE+ at 30W each within a 120W total budget, and up to four units can be daisy-chained. It suits boardrooms and meeting rooms in Doha that need one connection point without extra network switches. Request a quote.
A single connection point for a Tesira conference room
The TesiraCONNECT TC-5D is a five-port expansion device for conference rooms built around Biamp Tesira and Dante equipment. It carries power and media over one category cable to endpoints such as Tesira AVB DSPs, USB extenders, PoE+ amplifiers and microphones, and third-party Dante devices. In a room that would otherwise need a network switch and separate power supplies, one TC-5D takes on that role.
Power, ports and capacity to plan around
Four of the five Gigabit RJ-45 ports supply PoE+ under IEEE 802.3at Class 4, at up to 30W per port, within a total PoE budget of 120W. The fifth port connects to the DSP or links to another TesiraCONNECT device. Ports support 100 Mbps and 1 Gbps and detect the media network automatically. The unit handles up to 32x32 Dante channels, up to 150 AVB streams and up to 13 supported endpoints, and up to four units can be daisy-chained.
- Power draw: under 132W on 100-240VAC, 50/60Hz input
- Monitoring: front-panel LEDs for power, device status, faults and per-port status, plus fault reporting in SageVue
- Management: Dante Domain Manager supported, with Dante routing set in Dante Controller
- Setup: works with Tesira and Dante products without device configuration
Where it fits in Qatar
A government ministry boardroom in West Bay might need a Tesira DSP, USB extenders for the video conferencing laptop and PoE+ ceiling microphones sharing one tidy cabinet. A university seminar room in Education City can keep amplification and microphone wiring on single cables. A hotel meeting room in The Pearl may place the unit above a false ceiling or inside a credenza, which makes the temperature check below especially important.
Qatar's summer heat matters here. The TC-5D is rated for ambient operating temperatures from 0 to 40°C, with convection cooling and humidity from 0 to 95% non-condensing. It has been evaluated to UL 2043 for use in air handling spaces. Measure the air temperature in any ceiling void or cabinet before fixing the unit, and confirm placement with the SmartRooms Qatar team during the site survey.
Installation planning
At 28 mm high, 147 mm wide and 147 mm deep, and weighing 0.7 kg, the unit suits wall mounting, under-table fixing or a credenza. Its external universal power supply accepts 100-240VAC at 50/60Hz, which covers Qatar's 240V, 50 Hz mains, though an electrician should confirm the outlet and plug arrangement on site. Plan cable runs to each endpoint, check the PoE load against the 120W budget, and check the endpoint total against the 13-device limit.
SmartRooms Qatar supplies the TC-5D across all 8 municipalities of Qatar, offers professional installation and free site surveys, and issues quotations usually within one working day. Orders can be placed by purchase order (LPO), and the unit is covered by the manufacturer's 5-year warranty.

Questions about TesiraCONNECT TC-5D
Which meeting rooms in Qatar suit the TesiraCONNECT TC-5D best?
It suits conference rooms built around Biamp Tesira or Dante equipment, such as a ministry boardroom in West Bay, a meeting room in a Lusail office or a hotel conference room in Doha. Its role is to be the single connection point in that room, handling power and media for microphones, amplifiers, USB extenders and DSPs over one category cable. A room with only a display and a laptop has little use for it.
How much power can the TC-5D deliver to connected devices?
Four of its five RJ-45 ports supply PoE+ under IEEE 802.3at Class 4, at up to 30W per port, within a total PoE power budget of 120W. The remaining port connects to the DSP or links to another TesiraCONNECT device. Add up the PoE load of every microphone and amplifier in the room against that 120W total before you finalise the number of endpoints.
Do I still need a separate network switch in the room?
No. The TC-5D is designed to replace third-party switches in a conference room. It works out of the box with Tesira and Dante products and needs no device configuration to start passing audio and power. Its ports auto-detect the media network, and front-panel LEDs show port connections, device status and faults, which helps your technician confirm the installation.
How many TesiraCONNECT units can be daisy-chained together?
Up to four TesiraCONNECT devices can be daisy-chained. The non-PoE port on each unit carries the link to the next one. This helps when a larger room or a second section needs more ports without a separate switch. Check the PoE load across the whole chain against the 120W budget of each unit, and ask the SmartRooms Qatar team to review the layout during your site survey.
What Dante capacity and endpoint limits should I know?
The device supports up to 32x32 Dante audio channels, up to 150 AVB streams and up to 13 supported endpoints. Dante Domain Manager is supported, and Dante routing is configured in Dante Controller. For a lecture room with several microphones and speakers, count your endpoints against the 13-device limit as well as the channel requirement before ordering.
Is it right for a ministry boardroom in West Bay with a Tesira DSP and ceiling microphones?
Yes, provided the room already uses Tesira AVB DSP and Dante-compatible devices. The TC-5D can connect the DSP, USB extenders and PoE+ microphones or amplifiers over single category cables, which keeps the cabinet small. Because the room hosts government meetings, agree cable routes and the endpoint count with the SmartRooms Qatar team during the site survey before ordering.
How would it work in a seminar room in Education City?
A seminar room with a DSP, a USB extender for a lecture capture laptop and PoE+ ceiling microphones can be wired from one unit, provided the total PoE draw stays within 120W and the endpoint count stays within 13. The unit's 0.7 kg weight and compact footprint suit a wall or lectern-table mount. Confirm the room's temperature, because the stated operating range is 0 to 40°C.
Can it sit above the ceiling or inside a credenza in a hotel meeting room in The Pearl?
The data lists an ambient operating range of 0 to 40°C, convection cooling and 0 to 95% non-condensing humidity. It has been evaluated to UL 2043 for air handling spaces, which is relevant to ceiling voids. Doha summer heat can push ceiling voids and closed cabinets well above room temperature, so measure the space first or ask SmartRooms Qatar to confirm placement before installation.
Will it run on Qatar's 240V mains supply?
The external universal power supply accepts 100-240VAC at 50/60Hz, which covers Qatar's 240V, 50 Hz mains. Total power consumption is listed as under 132W. Have your electrician confirm the outlet location and cable route, and check that the plug on the supply suits BS 1363 (Type G) sockets, using a suitable adapter if it does not.
Does a third-party Dante device need configuration to work with it?
The TC-5D itself needs no device configuration. Dante routing is set in Dante Controller, and Dante Domain Manager is supported for managed networks. Third-party Dante devices can be connected, but check each device's Dante compatibility and channel use before installation, and agree the routing plan with your AV integrator so the room works on the first day.
How big is the TesiraCONNECT TC-5D and how should it be mounted?
It measures 28 mm high, 147 mm wide and 147 mm deep, and weighs 0.7 kg. The data supports mounting on a wall, under a table, above a ceiling or inside a credenza. Leave space around the case for convection airflow. Book a free site survey so the installer can check cable routes to each endpoint and the chosen position before the quotation is finalised.
Can a school in Al Wakrah order several units on a purchase order?
Yes. SmartRooms Qatar accepts purchase orders (LPOs), government tenders including Monaqasat, and payment by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order. For a school fitting out several classrooms, list each room layout, the number of endpoints per room and any sections that need daisy-chained units, so the quotation covers the right number of TC-5D units. Request a quote and the team usually replies within one working day.
