Microphones; Third-Party Options - SMART Board 4000 Series Installation Best Practices

CHAPTER 4
PRODUCT ACCESSORIES
IMPORTANT
If the speakers are used in conjunction with microphones (for example, as part of a meeting room
conferencing system or complete audio system), place the speakers correctly in relation to the
microphones, especially if you're using wireless microphones. For more information about
speaker and microphone placement, see Configuring the SMART product for the best audio
performance on page 24.

Third-party options

Refer to Appendix A: Third-party referrals on page 69 for a list of companies that sell this type of
equipment.
NOTES
If you're substituting audio components with third-party components, substitute the
l
speakers, microphones and mixer. Substituting only part of the audio system can lead to
echos and noise.
For a SMART Room System for Skype for Business, SMART does not recommend using
l
speakers other than those sold by SMART. The speakers that are part of the SMART Room
System are acoustically tuned to work with the included microphones and audio processor.
SMART can not assist with any audio issues that arise from the use of non-SMART speakers.

Microphones

Microphones can provide audio recording for a classroom or lecture hall or function as part of a
voice conferencing solution in a meeting room. SMART offers microphones as part of a complete
audio system and does not offer them separately. SMART offers a classroom audio system and a
conferencing audio system. Classroom audio systems are available separately, but the
conferencing audio system is available only as part of the SMART Room System for Skype for
Business or SMART Room System with SMART Meeting Pro software.
