Product description

• MT600 Condor Multi-Microphone Array with Built-In SIP Phone (30' Range)
  • The Condor Expansion Kit by Phoenix Audio Technologies (Introduction and How-To Install)
  The Phoenix Audio Condor is a beamforming SIP microphone that uses 15 microphones and DSP to pick up audio clearly, all while rejecting and cancelling out noises, echoes, and reverberation. As such, it is quite suitable for video-conferencing, especially when multiple parties are involved at either end of the connection.
  
  In order to capture audio at a range of 30', the device deploys seven long-range beams, examining the output from these beams from a preset direction. At the same time, intelligent DSP analyzes the signal multiple times per second in order to make its decisions, thus concluding which audio to keep and which to discard. This results in clear audio, free of echoes and unwanted noises, with uniform levels of speech represented no matter how far away the speaker is standing from the Condor itself.
  
  The Condor provides RCA inputs and outputs, so you can route other speakers (such as those found in standard visual monitors) into and out of the microphone, and thus, better utilize the Condor's echo-canceling functions. Networking is possible via RJ45 Ethernet link, while a USB port both powers the unit and allows you to access VoIP applications. No drivers are necessary when hooking the Condor up to computers, and you'll find automatic bridging between IP phone and USB communications. Two wall-brackets and two stands are included.

• MT700 Stingray Rack-Mountable All-In-One Distributed Array Mixer The Phoenix Audio MT700 Stingray is a 1 RU rack-mountable all-in-one distributed array mixer offering powerful DSP-driven audio mixing and processing for meetings and A/V conferencing. Its built-in direction finding, beamforming, noise and echo cancellation, and de-reverberation technologies ensure clarity and audibility devoid of unwanted room noises. Additionally, automatic gain control delivers consistent source levels by adjusting microphone sensitivity.Capable of 4-way bridging, it features four balanced mic inputs with phantom power, four balanced line-level inputs, USB digital I/O, and analog I/O. The internal amplifier provides 15W per channel to the four 8-Ohm balanced speaker outputs. With its own SIP client and support for USB, SIP, and analog communication, it easily integrates with VoIP, SIP client, and video conferencing configurations.Control the MT700 Stingray from the front-panel directional pad and LCD screen or via a network device such as a computer, smartphone, or tablet. An RJ45 Ethernet port is present for network and SIP interfacing, and two more RJ45 sockets are dedicated for daisy chaining up to 15 MT700 Stingray mixers. The MT700 Stingray includes a USB cable, an 18V power supply, a power cable, two rack mounting brackets, and a wire removal tool.
  • Daisy chain up to 15 Phoenix Audio MT700 Stingray mixers for a maximum of 60 inputs
  • Interface multiple connections for audio and video conferencing
  • 4-way bridging across local, USB, analog, and SIP signals transmits microphone settings to all interfaces simultaneously while allowing you to adjust loudspeaker levels locally
  • Direction finding recognizes the direction of the person speaking in the room
  • Beamforming technology steers the directionality of the connected microphones and improves noise and echo cancelling
  • Noise cancellation filters out ambient room noise such as air conditioning and background office or traffic noise
  • Acoustic echo cancellation prevents your microphone from transmitting the voice picked up from your speaker
  • De-reverberation improves audio pickup quality in reverberant rooms with hard reflective surfaces such as exposed, concrete, marble, or glass walls and ceilings
  • Automatic gain control automatically adjusts your microphone sensitivity so you are heard loud and clear regardless of your tone and distance from the device
  • Online web GUI accessed via network
  • PHNX Connect controller app enables convenient remote control via iOS, Android, or Windows device
  • Rear-panel connection for microphone mute control
  • 3.5mm diagnostic monitor output
