CONVERGE 560 ADVANTAGES
Superior Audio Performance
Full-duplex sound enables participants to speak and listen at the same time without cutting in and out ClearEffect™ provides natural, full-sounding audio without requiring wideband on both ends Distributed Echo Cancellation® effectively eliminates echo Noise cancellation removes background noises from fans or HVAC systems Automatic level controls keep participants’ audio balanced and consistent First-mic priority eliminates hollow “tunnel” sound by activating only the microphone closest to the person speaking Ability to add 3rd-party microphones allows flexibility in designing optimal room coverage Local sound distribution (single speaker zone) allows amplification of presenter's voice in near-end room
Rich Media Ready
Interfaces with any video or web conferencing system, providing superior audio pickup Camera voice tracking capability allows six or nine camera presets for pan/tilt/zoom in video conferencing applications Recording option allows crystal-clear capture of both sides of conversation, useful particularly in courtroom environments
Ease of Use and Installation
Dial pad resembles a standard phone Built-in web server enables remote access Configuration & device management software provides simple user interface for system configuration and operation Microphone distribution boxes contain three industry-standard XLR microphone connectors for flexibility in using 3rd-party microphone solutions Internal 10-watt amplifier drives speaker configuration of choice; external amplifier and speakers can also be added
Flexibility
Place mixer on tabletop, credenza, or in rack Mic distribution boxes can be rack mounted or strategically positioned throughout the room to minimize microphone cable runs Wireless or wired controller option
