The TS-801 is a chairman unit of the infrared conference system. Since the system is cordless, it can be easily installed and removed.

The Chairman unit features a priority speech key which allows it to take precedence over the TS-802 delegate units (optional) when speaking. It can be operated on either the AD-0910 AC adapter (optional) or the BP-900 lithium-ion battery (optional). It is equipped with a remaining battery indicator. Two types of dedicated microphones are made available for the TS-801 as optional products: the TS-903 standard type and the TS-904 long type.
