Common Questions
Is MXA920W-S the same as MXA920W-S-60CM?
No. MXA920W-S is the white square microphone, while MXA920W-S-60CM is a separate 60 cm white square model. They should not be treated as interchangeable for pricing, dimensions, or system design.
What area can one MXA920W-S cover?
Its default dynamic coverage area is 30 ft × 30 ft (9 m × 9 m). It can use up to eight adjustable automatic coverage areas, and larger rooms can use multiple microphones.
How does the microphone connect and receive power?
It uses a single RJ45 network connection for Dante or AES67 digital audio, control, and PoE power. The network connection requires Class 0 PoE and Cat5e-or-higher cable; shielded cable is recommended.
Does it need a separate DSP?
The MXA920W-S includes onboard IntelliMix DSP with automatic mixing, AEC, noise reduction, and AGC. Whether the room still needs a companion DSP depends on its codec or USB integration, audio routing, loudspeakers, and required system design.
Are mounting accessories included?
The square-model box includes a square hardware kit, but specialized mounting kits and adapters are separate accessories. Confirm whether the installation calls for ceiling grid, VESA, suspension, A900-CM ceiling, or A910-HCM hard-ceiling mounting before ordering.
