Biamp BMA 360D-I

In conference rooms, huddle spaces, and boardrooms, capturing clear audio from every seat—without intrusive table microphones or tangled cables—is a persistent challenge. The Biamp BMA 360D-I addresses this by mounting discreetly on the ceiling and using beamforming technology to focus on talkers anywhere in the room, delivering natural, full-duplex conversation for remote participants.

Who is it for

This microphone array is ideal for integrators, AV professionals, and enterprises deploying high-quality audio conferencing in meeting rooms, training facilities, and collaborative spaces. It suits any environment where aesthetics and performance are equally important, and where Dante networking is already in place or planned.

Main features

• Beamforming array with 122 microphone elements and four independent, user-configurable beams for 360-degree coverage.
• Integrated DSP with Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC), Noise Reduction (ANC), and Automatic Gain Control (AGC) for crystal-clear audio.
• Dante audio networking with four channels plus a mix output, plus two balanced analog outputs and USB audio for flexible connectivity.
• Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) support simplifies installation—single cable for power and data.
• Low latency (<10 ms from mic to Dante out) ensures natural conversation flow.
• Ceiling tile, hard ceiling, or pendant mounting options for versatile installation.
• Discreet white finish blends into most ceiling environments.

Tips

For best results, position the BMA 360D-I in the center of the ceiling, away from HVAC vents and direct lighting fixtures that may introduce noise. Use Tesira software to fine-tune beam positions and AEC settings for your specific room acoustics. When using Dante, ensure your network switch supports PoE+ and QoS for reliable audio transport.
