Frequently Asked Questions
What is a boundary microphone, and why is it ideal for conference rooms?
A boundary microphone sits on a table or wall surface and uses a flat mounting plane to capture sound evenly across the room. This design is perfect for conference tables because it minimizes feedback and picks up all participants clearly without the need for multiple hand-held mics.
How many people can this microphone pick up during a meeting?
The omnidirectional pickup pattern captures voices from all directions around the conference table. The number of participants depends on room size and acoustics; contact Procure.ae to determine the right setup for your space.
Can the ATR4697-USB replace multiple desk microphones in a large boardroom?
For a large boardroom, one boundary microphone may be sufficient for tables up to 2-3 meters in length, but very large tables or multi-room setups may benefit from additional units. Procure.ae can advise on the optimal configuration for your space.
Is this microphone suitable for teleconferencing and recording meeting notes?
Yes, the USB connection works with video conferencing platforms and recording software. The omnidirectional pattern ensures all speakers are captured clearly for both live calls and archival.
How should I position this microphone on the conference table for best results?
Place it in the center of the table or closest to the primary speaker. The flat boundary design ensures even pickup, but avoid placing it near walls, windows, or reflective surfaces that could cause acoustic issues.
Does this microphone work with existing PA or audio systems in my office?
The ATR4697-USB connects via USB to a computer or device. To integrate with a PA system, you would need to route the computer audio through your PA mixer; contact Procure.ae for integration advice.
What is the delivery timeline to the UAE and GCC?
Procure.ae supplies across the UAE and GCC on a request-a-quote basis. Contact the Procure.ae team for current lead times to your location.
Do you provide installation support for conference room deployments?
Procure.ae can discuss installation and deployment options for your conference setup. Reach out to the team to confirm available support services.
What is included with the ATR4697-USB?
The package includes the boundary microphone, a 1.5 m USB-C cable, a USB-C to standard USB adapter, and everything needed for immediate use.
What warranty coverage does this microphone have?
Contact Procure.ae to confirm the warranty period and what is covered under the manufacturer warranty.
What makes the omnidirectional pickup pattern better for conferencing than cardioid?
Omnidirectional pickup captures voices equally from all directions, preventing feedback and ensuring no participant is missed. Cardioid patterns favor one direction and can exclude speakers to the sides, making omnidirectional ideal for round or rectangular conference tables.
