Avaya Scopia XT7100 Deployment Manual page 60

Setting Up the XT Series Hardware
• A digital microphone brings higher quality sound, and are usually connected via optical cables
which can be deployed over longer distances than analog (copper) wires.
• For more complex audio setups, you can connect the XT Series to an audio mixer.
• The XT Codec Unit uses the same audio in
microphones, line input, and computer audio, so you must choose between them. You can free
this port when you use the digital three-way XT Digital Microphone Array Pod, which uses its
own microphone
There are several connections available to input audio to the XT Series:
• The dedicated microphone
Series can support two of these microphones daisy-chained.
• The USB port is used for USB headsets, or for a USB camera with a built-in microphone (lower
USB only).
• The audio input port
- The analog One-way Microphone Pod or any other analog microphone with a 3.5mm jack.
- A third-party digital microphone with a mini-TOSlink connector.
- Audio mixers like those from Clear One. An audio mixer connects multiple microphones (or
other audio inputs) to generate a single audio stream.
- A computer audio-out connection or line audio connection.
