ClearOne expanded its audio conferencing product line with the introduction of its Ceiling Microphone Array Dante, a tri-element ceiling microphone array with built-in Dante audio networking for conferencing and sound reinforcement applications. The company's Ceiling Microphone Array will be showcased at ISE 2019 from February 5-8 at Stand #D-130 in Hall 11 at the RAI Centre in Amsterdam. Each Ceiling Microphone Array Dante utilizes three premium quality microphone elements to deliver 360-degree room coverage for boardrooms, conference rooms, telemedicine facilities and more. Dante networking technology offers simple installation with CAT5 or CAT6 cabling, and delivers uncompressed, multi-channel audio with near-zero latency and sample accurate time synchronization throughout the network. Up to four ClearOne Ceiling Microphone Array Dantes can be daisy-chained to cover one to four rooms, and the microphone elements in each array are numbered for easy identification. The company will offer package pricing for one to four arrays to maximize cost effectiveness and offer integrators improved margins. The array is compatible with Dante DSP mixers from the company and third parties, and features shielding against RF interference to provide consistently clear, static-free audio with wide bandwidth and high signal-to-noise ratio. Integrators can use multiple interfaces to add as many microphones arrays as needed, up to the capacity of the Ethernet switch or DSP mixer. Installation is a breeze due to the expandable nature of the room solution, and each array is easily adjustable to hang anywhere from zero to seven feet from the ceiling. Power is supplied through Power Over Ethernet, and on-board LEDs indicate power status and mute status of each array. It is available in black or white to match a variety of decors and ceiling types.
