Audio Technica ATND1061 DAN Beamforming Ceiling Microphone with Dante

Description

Audio-Technica ATND1061 DAN Beamforming Ceiling Microphone with Dante is a professional ceiling microphone array designed for conference rooms, boardrooms, classrooms, and large meeting spaces requiring high-quality networked audio. This beamforming ceiling microphone captures clear, natural speech from every participant while minimizing background noise, making it ideal for video conferencing, hybrid meetings, and unified communication systems.

The ATND1061 DAN features advanced beamforming technology with six output channels and up to 32 configurable pickup zones. Coverage Zones track active speakers automatically, while Priority Zones ensure key participants are always heard clearly. The microphone dynamically focuses on voices within the room, reducing unwanted noise and improving intelligibility for remote listeners.

Powerful onboard DSP eliminates the need for external processing in many installations. Built-in functions include automixing, acoustic echo cancellation, noise reduction, automatic gain control, and equalization. Proprietary voice activity detection technology distinguishes speech from environmental sounds such as paper movement or HVAC noise, ensuring consistent audio clarity during meetings.

Dante network connectivity enables seamless integration into modern AV infrastructures. The ATND1061 DAN supports Single Cable Mode for combined audio and control over one cable, or Split Mode for separate transmission paths. VISCA over IP support allows synchronization with PTZ cameras, while PoE power simplifies installation using standard network cabling.

Installation is flexible and straightforward. The microphone can be flush-mounted or surface-mounted in drop ceilings, mounted to hard ceilings, or installed in open architecture spaces using a VESA mount. Included mounting hardware and safety accessories support professional deployment, making the ATND1061 DAN an advanced solution for organizations seeking reliable, scalable ceiling microphone coverage for conferencing and collaboration spaces.
