The Audio Conferencing Kit is a complete, single-vendor, networked solution designed for small and medium-sized rooms that demand the flexibility and consistent acoustic performance of a ceiling-mounted microphone and can also be used in combination with all-in-one systems to expand audio coverage in larger or challenging spaces. The kit provides users with the superior audio quality of the MXA902 Ceiling Array Mic and Loudspeaker, which delivers pristine voice capture and far-end speech reproduction in a single device. The MXA902 features powerful, onboard IntelliMix digital signal processing (DSP) for superb AV conferencing audio without noise and echo, removing the need for additional external DSP hardware. Meanwhile, the ANIUSB-MATRIX Interface offers convenient networked or USB connectivity to room PCs or BYODs running the chosen conferencing platform.

With both devices shipping in a single box and already pre-routed, the kit enables quick deployment in rooms up to 20x20 feet. It shortens setup, reduces compatibility issues, and ensures reliable performance, every time. For larger spaces, the kit lets IT partners scale efficiently by pairing any additional certified Shure Microflex Ecosystem devices, or connecting the kit to existing, compatible in-room solutions. Due to the simplicity of the Audio Conferencing Kit, integrators do not require a technical certification for sale or install.
