ClearOne has introduced the COLLABORATE Versa Lite CT, a USB audio-enabled Beamforming Ceiling Tile Microphone Array (BMA CTH). This room solution enhances the audio experience for any cloud-collaboration application without the need for a DSP mixer. Versa Lite CT will be showcased at ISE 2020 on stand 11-D130 in the RAI Centre in Amsterdam. It’s designed for small to medium-sized rooms.

The system includes the company’s new BMA CTH with built-in AEC and adaptive steering (think of it as smart switching), which provides the same impeccable room coverage as the BMA CT. It also includes two 10-watt power amps.

The system can be configured with the CONSOLE AI Lite software with Audio Intelligence and Auto Connect — you connect a laptop or room PC to the BMA CTH directly through the USB port on the USB Expander to share room audio. The included 50-foot Cat6 cable connects the USB Expander to the BMA CTH.

And, you can add ClearOne’s Wall-Mount Bluetooth Expander to enable mobile devices to use installed room audio peripherals wirelessly.

The COLLABORATE Versa Lite CT is here.
