Biamp 920-01899-00001 Parlé CBC 2500 CM

Product Overview

The Biamp Parle CBC 2500 CM is a ceiling-mounted, all-in-one conferencing audio bar for collaboration spaces where wall mounting is difficult. It hangs from an open-plan ceiling on two discreet cables and combines a 27-element beamtracking microphone array with two low-distortion speakers in a single conferencing bar. Built for soft-codec conferencing in meeting rooms and boardrooms, it integrates acoustic echo cancellation and AI noise reduction for clear, hands-free voice pickup. The CBC 2500 CM is certified for Microsoft Teams and Zoom and connects over a single USB-C cable.

Product Description

The Parle CBC 2500 CM brings microphone, loudspeaker, and processing together in one ceiling conferencing bar, so integrators can outfit rooms with clear conferencing audio without table microphones or wall-mounted hardware. Its 27-element digital microphone array uses Biamp Beamtracking technology to actively track and intelligently mix conversation from around the room, and it works in conjunction with acoustic echo cancellation for a clean far-end signal. An AI noise reduction algorithm suppresses distracting background sound, while two smart speakers use distortion compensation and dynamic bass enhancement to fill the room with intelligible speech. The bar mounts to any open-plan ceiling using two easy-connect mounting points, aircraft cables, and decorative cable covers included in the box, keeping the installation clean overhead. A single USB-C connection carries audio to and from a room PC or soft-codec appliance, and the bar can draw power over USB-C or from its included external power supply. Biamp Launch, an automated tuning system, optimizes the audio to each unique conferencing space after installation, reducing manual setup time. A mute-status LED gives clear visual feedback to participants. For rooms that need a single-point pole-mount installation instead of a two-cable hang, the companion model is the Parle CBC 2500 PM; explore related conferencing hardware in the Biamp collection at Creation Networks.
