The End of the Table-Bound Microphone
In a traditional meeting setup, participants are often forced to huddle around a central speakerphone or remain stationary to stay within a microphone’s pickup range. This physical constraint stifles natural collaboration. The Bronx M702 / M702C Cascading Omnidirectional Digital Array Microphone breaks these barriers by moving the “ears” of the room to the ceiling or walls, providing a transparent and high-performance audio experience that follows the speaker .
The Bronx M702 / M702C - Digital Array Precision
The M702 / M702C is built upon a high SNR ring microphone array. Unlike standard microphones, a digital array uses multiple capsules working in unison to create a highly sensitive and directional pickup field.
Blind Beamforming and Automatic Speaker Alignment
Through Blind Beamforming technology, the system identifies the precise location of the person speaking and “steers” its focus toward them . This adaptive sound field environment enhances the voice while suppressing off-axis noise and interference. Whether a presenter is at the whiteboard or a participant is speaking from the back of the room, the M702 / M702C ensures their voice is captured with consistent, lifelike presence.
Scalable PoE Cascading for Large Venues
One of the most significant advantages of this system is its scalability. While a single unit is perfect for a huddle space, large boardrooms require a distributed approach.
Even Coverage with Distributed Sound Pickup
The Bronx M702 / M702C supports PoE cascading, allowing up to 6 microphones to be linked together using standard network cables . This distributedsound pickup architecture ensures that the audio is captured evenly across the entire space. For professional conferencing solutions, this eliminates the “cavernous” or “distant” sound often associated with large rooms, providing an intimate acoustic experience for remote participants.
Smart Audio Algorithms for Natural Communication
The system is powered by a powerful internal audio processing unit that features ultra-low signal processing delay. It utilizes Smart Audio Algorithms to manage the acoustic environment in real-time. This includes intelligent noise reduction to filter out HVAC hum, advanced echo cancellation for fluid two-way dialogue, and de-reverberation to combat “echoey” room reflections. The result is a clean, natural sound that makes audio and video conferencing feel like an in-person conversation.
Flexible Installation and Aesthetic Integration
The M702 / M702C is designed to blend into its environment. It features a hot-adhesive fabric wrapping process that can be customized to match different room decorations. Beyond its looks, it offers total installation flexibility, supporting lifting (ceiling), wall mounting, or desktop deployment. This flexibility allows for rapid, “no-drill” setups in modern offices or permanent, invisible integration in high-end executive suites.
Revolutionising Audio and Video Conferencing Clarity
By moving the microphone array away from the table, you remove the clutter of cables and the noise of paper shuffling or pen tapping. This makes the Bronx M702 / M702C an ideal choice for hybrid meeting technology environments where the goal is to provide remote attendees with the highest possible audio quality without compromising the room’s utility.

FAQs
How many M702 microphones do I need for a 50-square-meter room?
Typically, a single M702 unit has a pickup radius of about 3 meters. For a 50-square-meter room, we usually recommend cascading 2 to 3 units to ensure even coverage and that no participant is ever more than a few feet away from a pickup point in your audio and video conferencing setup.
What is "Blind Beamforming" and how does it help my meetings?
Blind Beamforming allows the microphone to “find” the person speaking without any prior configuration. It automatically aligns the microphone array’s sensitivity to the speaker’s location, which improves voice clarity and reduces background noise, a vital feature for professional conferencing solutions.
Does the PoE cascading require a separate power supply for each mic?
No. One of the primary benefits of PoE (Power over Ethernet) is that both data and power are carried over a single cable. When you cascade the Bronx M702 / M702C units, they draw power from the network switch, greatly simplifying advanced AV integration.
Can this microphone be integrated with my existing DSP?
Yes. The M702 / M702C features a standard interface and is “plug and play.” It can be integrated with professional digital conference systems and external DSPs to provide an even more refined acoustic experience for complex hybrid meeting technology environments.
Is it difficult to install the M702 on a ceiling?
The M702 / M702C is designed for flexible installation. It supports lifting/ceiling mounting with standard hardware, making it a “flexible and fast deployment” option that reduces long-term operation and maintenance costs compared to complex in-table wiring.
