The Biamp Parlé TCM-XEX is a white, low-profile ceiling expansion microphone designed to extend audio coverage in video conferencing rooms. Featuring beamtracking technology with 360-degree pickup and CAT5 connectivity to a host DSP, it supports Microsoft Teams and Zoom. Smart-Boards supplies this unit across the GCC and Africa.
This ceiling-mounted expansion unit integrates with existing Biamp TCM-X or TCM-XA systems to enhance room audio capture. Utilizing beamtracking technology, it automatically detects and mixes voices across four 90-degree zones, providing full 360-degree coverage without manual adjustment. The low-profile design measures 150 mm in height, allowing it to blend discreetly into modern office or educational interiors while maintaining a clean aesthetic.
Installation is streamlined through a single CAT5 connection to the host network box, supporting up to 10 meters of distance. Each microphone consumes only one AEC channel, even when daisy-chained, ensuring efficient resource use in Tesira systems. Certified for Microsoft Teams and Zoom, it includes an LED mute indicator for visual feedback. The device is TAA compliant, UL 2043 plenum rated, and backed by a 5-year manufacturer warranty.
