TRIO Ceiling Mic Array
The Ceiling Interface Module is designed for above ceiling installation requiring plenum rating. A removable top
cover allows user access to connect required cables. The assembly can also be mounted below ceiling securing
with standard anchors with the pre-drilled holes within the ears.

1) Strain Relief Clamp:
The clamp is an adjustable cable clamp allowing the installer to fix the ceiling mic array head at the desired
distance from ceiling. The cable is 36” and can be shortened simply by leaving more cable in the box tied around
the clamp.
2) Array Head Drop Cable:
A 36” cable terminated with a RJ-45 jack provides the connection of the ceiling mic array head to the processing
board housed in the Ceiling Interface Module.
3) Feed-Through Coupler:
A 5/8” threaded feed through coupler is used to feed the cable into the Ceiling Interface Module. The coupler
extends through a ceiling tile and ceiling tile brace or through a drywall hole in the ceiling.
Note: Keep the pilot hole in the tile or drywall as close to 5/8” as possible.
4) Array Head Connector:
An RJ-45 plug secures the connection of the ceiling mic array head with the internal processing board.
Connectors are clearly marked. “IN FROM MIC” and “OUT TO MIXER”
5) Internal PCBA:
The board that supports the mic element providing DSP functions and Acoustic Echo Cancellation is located in
the ceiling module.
6) TRIO Mic Port & Cable:
A second RJ-45 jack is located on the processing board internal to the Ceiling Interface Module. This is the
TRIO Mic Port for connection of the device to the TRIO MIC I/O via a standard Cat- 5 cable. The cable exits the
Ceiling Interface Module via a standard conduit connector.
