Review: BM Series Conference Microphones from PROEL
An introduction to the wired BM Series conference microphones from PROEL, which are easy to install with clear sound, complete with the CONFD controller supporting up to 254 units.
A conference microphone is a type of microphone with a gooseneck and a base, designed to sit on the tables in a meeting room. It is mainly used in executive board rooms and meeting rooms with a chairperson and participants. Conference microphones offer many functions for users to choose from, such as managing speaking order in a discussion, indicating or confirming the identity of the person speaking, and casting votes among participants. Generally, a conference system has three main devices: the controller, the conference microphone for the chairperson, and the conference microphone for the participants. In addition, today's conference microphone systems come in two types: wired and wireless conference microphones. Today we will introduce one of the excellent wired conference microphone systems, the BM Series conference microphones from PROEL. Let's explore what they have to offer.
The Wired BM Series Conference Microphones from PROEL
These are wired conference microphones from PROEL, designed for easy installation and giving users clear, high-quality sound, making them ideal for installation in meeting rooms. They come with a hassle-free operating system, divided into two types of use: the conference microphone for the chairperson (BMCD) and the conference microphone for participants (BMDD), which look similar externally. Their functions are as follows.
Microphone On/Off Button and LED Light
The base of the BM Series conference microphone has a single button to turn the microphone on and off. When the user presses the button to activate the microphone at the base, the indicator light turns red and the LED ring showing the microphone's operating status lights up. When the button is pressed again to deactivate it, the indicator light turns green and the LED ring showing the microphone's operating status goes out.
PRIORITY Button for Muting Participant Microphones
The conference microphone for the chairperson (BMCD) can mute the participants' microphones by pressing the PRIORITY button. When the user presses the PRIORITY button to mute the participants, the LED ring showing the operating status of the participant microphones goes out, indicating that the participant microphones are being muted. If a participant wants to speak again, they simply press the activation button at the microphone base.
Built-in Speaker in the Microphone Base
If you do not want the sound to be too loud, the base of the BM Series conference microphone has a built-in speaker with a volume control button, allowing the volume to be adjusted to each user's preference. A special feature of the BM Series conference microphone is that whenever a speaker is using a particular conference microphone, that microphone's speaker is automatically muted. There is also a headphone jack on the back to hear the other party's conversation even better.
CONFD Conference Microphone Controller
CONFD is the device used to control the entire conference system, working together with the conference microphone for the chairperson (BMCD) and the conference microphone for participants (BMDD). It can supply power and connect to expand the microphone system to as many as 64 units per unit. It comes with a built-in monitor speaker and can also connect to an external microphone.
EXCONFD Expansion Controller
If the user needs to use more than 64 conference microphones, they can use the EXCONFD from PROEL to expand and connect up to 60 conference microphones per unit, with 6 conference microphone ports (1 port can connect up to 30 units). A single conference system can connect up to 4 EXCONFD units.
