Sennheiser has announced a new integration for Cisco Devices that synchronises the mute state between Cisco systems and the Sennheiser TeamConnect Ceiling Medium (TCC M). By leveraging IP control, this update builds on the existing integration of audio over AES67 and removes the need for additional hardware.
The new integration syncs the TCC M ceiling mic with the mute state of the Cisco Devices, without the need for a dedicated control processor, leading to an efficient installation process. Eliminating unnecessary hardware not only cuts deployment costs, but also reduces potential points of failure, resulting in a more reliable system. If the video device cannot update the Sennheiser mute state, a warning will be displayed on-screen.
‘We share a mutual goal with Sennheiser to make our solutions as easy as possible to use together,’ says Arnaud Caigniet, Head of Cisco Collaboration Devices Alliances. ‘Our new macro for the TCC M is yet another example of how we’re working closely with Sennheiser to integrate our products for simple installation and use.’
The TCC M is designed for permanent installation in medium-size meeting rooms. With this solution, Sennheiser provides an additional design option and greater connectivity to include its ceiling microphone into wide variety of meeting rooms and teaching spaces. TCC M delivers functionalities like TruVoicelift, Intelligent Noise Control and Exclusion & Priority Zones within a compact form factor.
