Summary

This chapter has described how the Polycom Video Codec conferencing system can be connected to
SoundStructure devices over the Conference Link2 interface including a description of the signals and
available processing.
In addition, up to four digital microphone arrays may be used with the SoundStructure devices to simplify
any audio or video conferencing design.
The digital microphone arrays take up the processing of three analog inputs. The following table shows the
number of analog inputs that are available based on the number of microphones that are used in a system.
As an example, a SoundStructure C16 supports 16 analog inputs. When used with two microphone arrays,
10 analog inputs are still available for use with other analog inputs including microphones, program audio,
etc.
