Product Description
The Vaddio EasyIP CeilingMIC/AMP D is a top - notch in - ceiling audio solution. It comes in a sleek white color and combines an overhead microphone with a built - in speaker amplifier, both powered by Dante networked audio. This device features a PoE+ network connection, an overhead mic, and a single powered speaker output, offering a cost - effective 2 - in - 1 solution for integrating a mic and a passive speaker into an EasyIP or Dante audio system. Dante simplifies project installation by enabling digital signal transmission over the network. It's part of Vaddio’s expanding EasyIP AV - over - IP ecosystem. The single output can power one or multiple speakers (when wired in series or parallel, with a total load of at least 4 ohms). With 360 - degree pickup coverage, one unit can cover an average - sized meeting room table well. In larger spaces, multiple units can be used for full coverage, limited only by network switch ports. You can centrally manage microphone routing and system configuration using the free Dante Controller software. Each unit performs like three microphone elements in a single pendant hanging enclosure. Every unidirectional cardioid microphone element has integrated echo cancellation and DSP (including equalization, filtering, and AGC). The DSP in the interface box receives AEC reference from the far end, ensuring crystal - clear conference calls. You can easily configure and fine - tune the DSP with Vaddio’s desktop tool. Its plug - and - play design makes installation a breeze. Just connect a Cat - 5e cable between the network switch PoE port and the microphone receiver, as power, control, and audio are all in one cable. The CeilingMIC pendant has a 3 - ft. (0.9 - meter) adjustable drop cable and can be extended to 15 ft. (4.6 meters) from the interface box with a standard RJ45 jack. Key features include a 2 - in - 1 design for easy Dante networked audio implementation, a three - element microphone array for 360° coverage with echo cancellation, bringing an analog speaker into your EasyIP or Dante environment, Dante networked audio managed by the Dante Controller app, and PoE+ or PoE power with adaptive output (25 W with EasyIP Switch or other PoE+ source, 15 W with a PoE source). This package includes the EasyIP CeilingMIC/AMP D (black or white), a 3 - ft. (0.9 - m) Cat - 6 cable (black or white), a 2 - conductor 5 mm Phoenix style plug for speaker cable, ceiling mounting hardware, and a Quick - Start card. It has an operating temperature of 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C), is amplifier and microphone in type, black in color, compatible with Vaddio, and manufactured by Vaddio. It has audio output ports, PoE+ power, Dante Audio signal type, AEC special feature, is TAA compliant, has a 25W total output power, and comes with CE, FCC, TAA certifications and a 3 - year warranty.
Using the Vaddio EasyIP CeilingMIC/AMP D is easy. First, install it on the ceiling using the provided mounting hardware. Connect a Cat - 5e cable from the network switch PoE port to the microphone receiver. This single cable will handle power, control, and audio. You can use the pendant with its 3 - ft. adjustable drop cable, and if needed, extend it to 15 ft. using the standard RJ45 jack. When it comes to speakers, you can connect one or multiple speakers (in series or parallel, as long as the total load is at least 4 ohms) to the single output. For larger rooms, add more units to get full coverage, but make sure you have enough network switch ports. Use the free Dante Controller software to manage microphone routing and system configuration. You can also use Vaddio’s desktop tool to configure and fine - tune the DSP for clear audio. Keep in mind that the device operates in a temperature range of 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C). Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures. For maintenance, keep it clean from dust and debris. If you encounter any issues, check the cable connections first. If problems persist, refer to the warranty information as it comes with a 3 - year warranty.
