Audio playback is on the built-in speakers.ĪdditionalMicrophone (only Room Kit Mini): Both the USB microphone and the built-in microphone are used for audio input. Microphone: Only the USB microphone is used for audio input. This setting is available in Control Hub, local web interface, and xAPI. When you want to use the USB-A connector for an external microphone or an audio interface you must change the Audio USB Mode setting. All audio is routed to and from your headset. Both the input (microphone) and output (speaker) channels are connected, and the built-in speakers and microphones are disabled. When you connect a USB audio device to the Room or Desk device’s USB-A connector, the default behavior is tailored for the use of a USB headset. Hence, USB is the only option for connecting external microphones to these devices. These may be USB microphones, or require a USB audio interface in between.Ī USB audio interface also opens for more microphones, and other microphone types.ĭesk Pro and Room Kit Mini don’t have dedicated microphone inputs. In situations with special requirements for audio pickup, for example in broadcast scenarios, shotgun or lavalier microphones might be preferred. If your device doesn’t have a dedicated microphone input, your room is slightly larger than recommended, or has challenging acoustics, an extra USB table microphone may improve performance. However, some scenarios require, or take advantage from using external USB microphones or USB audio interfaces: These microphones are thoroughly tested with our devices and give a consistent mute behavior.

In general, we recommend using the Cisco Webex Table Microphone or Cisco Ceiling Microphone as external microphones. Webex Edge for Devices linked devices with cloud-managed software upgrades USB microphones and audio interfaces are supported for: The same Room and Desk devices also support USB headsets. Desk Pro, Room Kit, Room Kit Mini, and Room 55 support USB audio devices, such as microphones and audio interfaces.
