Poly Primary Ceiling Microphone Array - White 2200-23809-002

Extraordinary room coverage with superior audio pickup

Polycom’s digital microphone array is the only audio pickup device on the market that offers consistent, reliable, 360-degree voice pickup and Polycom StereoSurround audio. When paired with Polycom video conferencing system or installed audio solutions, the audio capture and delivery is unmatched.

Polycom’s easy-to-mount Ceiling Microphone Array eliminates conference table clutter and stays out of the way of pencil tappers and paper rustlers, while providing the same clear, crisp audio delivery as our tabletop microphone arrays. Unobtrusively, the microphone elements are located in the room, while the electronics are mounted above the ceiling tile, so you don’t even know it’s there. This makes the Ceiling Microphone Array the perfect solution for any application, large or small, from the classroom to the boardroom to the huddle room, anywhere “out of sight, out of mind” is a good philosophy.

Acoustic Fence Technology

Open workspaces are prevalent but can create challenges for effective collaboration across remote locations. Create a virtual fence in open workspaces with RealPresence Group Series Acoustic Fence technology to isolate sound capture within the fence. Ceiling Microphone Arrays define the fence area so audio outside of the beam is attenuated. Remote participants are no longer forced to hear distracting noises and can focus on important problem solving within the meeting instead.

Stereo pickup with a single microphone array

The Ceiling Microphone Array eliminates acoustic noise coming from the ceiling, while boosting sensitivity gain even when the speaker is directly beneath the microphone. To achieve up to 1,600 square feet of coverage, simply connect up to four Ceiling Microphone Arrays to a single Polycom RealPresence Group Series 500 or 700 video system. Adjustable drop height from ceiling will accommodate any room size or environment. This huge coverage area is up to three times larger than competitive unidirectional ceiling microphones. It is delivered as a complete kit with all mounting hardware required for easy installation.

Polycom Ceiling Microphone Arrays seamlessly integrate with the RealPresence Group Series video systems and Polycom SoundStructure installed audio solutions, so you’ll always enjoy the best audio quality in echo cancellation, noise reduction and automatic gain control.
