TEAMCONNECT CEILING 2 – SPEAKER

Published in Jan-Feb 2021 Issue

The TeamConnect Ceiling 2 active speaker has 28 condenser capsules that are linked via DSP matrix, it covers the entire room; the signal processing takes place within the microphone housing itself. Dependent on the signal level, the ceiling microphone recognizes precisely where the speaker is located in the room and “focuses” on the corresponding area in the form of a beam. Other areas are attenuated accordingly.

 The Ceiling 2 speaker’s audio output is through a three-pin Phoenix contact for analog connection (external audio processor, video conference codec) and two Dante ports (primary/secondary, 2 x RJ45) for digital scenarios. Power is supplied by PoE (Power-over-Ethernet). Setting the system up and trouble-free AV workflows are best achieved by using the free Sennheiser Control Cockpit software 4.0.0, which also supports the evolution wireless G3 and G4 microphone series, as well as the SpeechLine Digital Wireless series and the ground-breaking Digital 6000 system. As an alternative, TeamConnect Ceiling 2 can also be operated with a media control system.

An extensive range of accessories makes it extremely easy to install the ceiling microphone, which measures 590 x 590 x 43 millimeters (L x W x H). Special paintwork in RAL colors is also available. Sennheiser TeamConnect Ceiling 2 is certified for use with Microsoft Teams Rooms together with a correspondingly certified DSP and is compatible with Zoom.
