How far does CTS-MIC-CLNG-G2 pick up horizontally?

CTS-MIC-CLNG-G2 has a recommended maximum horizontal pickup range of 14 ft (4.3 m). Cisco's ceiling microphone installation guide says this full range is reached only in rooms with enough acoustic damping. In a more reverberant room, reduce the spacing between the microphone and the loudspeaker, and between any additional microphones.

How high and how far apart should CTS-MIC-CLNG-G2 units be mounted?

Mount each CTS-MIC-CLNG-G2 about 8 ft (2.4 m) above the floor. When a room needs more than one microphone, space the units 8 to 14 ft (2.4 to 4.3 m) apart. The ceiling wires hook to plugs in the top plate, and the wire lengths are adjusted to level the top plate.

Does the cable for CTS-MIC-CLNG-G2 have to be plenum rated above the ceiling?

Yes, in the US. Per the installation guide, a microphone cable that runs above the ceiling must be plenum rated. The optional 10 m shielded cable CAB-ETHRSHLD-10M is not plenum rated, so a plenum void needs a different cable. The microphone may only connect to I/O that complies with LPS/PS2.

What size and weight does CTS-MIC-CLNG-G2 have for ceiling load planning?

CTS-MIC-CLNG-G2 is 29.5 in wide, 21.7 in deep and 10.6 in high, and it weighs 3.97 lb (1.8 kg). The ceiling must safely support the product, and ceiling mounts must suit the ceiling type. Follow state and local building regulations for the installation.

Where are the ceiling mounting points on CTS-MIC-CLNG-G2, and can it take security wires?

The ceiling mounting points are 23.6 in (600 mm) wide by 17.3 in (440 mm) deep. Extra holes in the vertical plate accept security wires when the ceiling construction requires them. The security wires are not supplied, so source them with the other ceiling hardware.

What is in the CTS-MIC-CLNG-G2 box besides the microphone?

Per Cisco's installation guide, the box holds a top plate, plugs, mounting wires with hooks at 6.5 ft (2 m), a vertical plate, a ceiling grommet, a minijack adapter, a Euroblock adapter and gloves. A 32.8 ft (10 m) shielded Ethernet cable is listed as optional.

CTS-MIC-CLNG-G2 Description

The CTS-MIC-CLNG-G2 is a Cisco Ceiling Microphone, a balanced directional boundary-layer microphone for medium-to-large meeting rooms, training rooms and auditoriums. The microphone has a 180-degree pickup pattern, an 80 Hz to 20 kHz frequency range, -33 dB free-field sensitivity and a signal-to-noise ratio of at least 72 dB, and it ships with 4-pin Euroblock and 4-pin mini jack connectors. The microphone mounts by wire hanging, and clips for grid ceiling mounting are not included.

Application Scenarios

Training Rooms And Auditoriums

In a training room or auditorium where the seating span is wider than a table microphone covers, the microphone hangs from the ceiling and picks up the audience over a 180-degree pattern.

Clear-Table Boardrooms

A boardroom that keeps the table free of devices and cabling hangs the microphone above the seating area and connects it to the room system through the ceiling.

Added Pickup For Existing Room Systems

A room running a Room Kit, Room Bar, SX, MX or Board Pro system can add the microphone where the built-in pickup does not reach the back rows.

Selection Guide

CTS-MIC-CLNG-G2 suits medium-to-large meeting rooms, training rooms and auditoriums where the table has to stay clear and pickup hangs from the ceiling with 180-degree coverage. It ships with both 4-pin Euroblock and mini jack connectors, so the host wiring does not restrict the choice. Rooms that prefer a table unit take CS-MIC-TABLE-J or CS-MIC-ARRAY-T. The optional CAB-ETHRSHLD-10M is not plenum rated.

Ordering Checklist

Hosts: CTS-MIC-CLNG-G2 attaches to Room Bar, Room Bar Pro, Room Kit, Room Kit Plus, Room Kit EQ and EQX, Room Kit Pro, Room 55/55 Dual, Room 70, Room 70 G2, SX10, SX20, SX80, MX200, MX300, MX700, MX800, Board Pro 55/75 in both generations, and Room Panorama Series.
Grid ceiling clips: Source clips for grid ceiling mounting separately, because the wire-hanging microphone does not include them. A suspended grid ceiling install stalls without them.
Shielded cable: Add CAB-ETHRSHLD-10M, a 10 meter shielded cable that is not plenum rated, as its own line. A plenum ceiling void or a run beyond 10 meters needs a different cable.
