Sennheiser TeamConnect Ceiling M Plus CT-W 2FT – 24" Ceiling Tile Microphone

Product Overview

The Sennheiser TeamConnect Ceiling M Plus CT-W 2FT is a 2x2 ceiling tile microphone engineered for conference rooms, boardrooms, and meeting spaces that rely on a clean overhead pickup with no microphones on the table. As a beamforming ceiling microphone array, it captures every participant across the room while keeping sightlines and work surfaces clear. This 24-inch variant is built to drop directly into a 2 ft x 2 ft suspended ceiling grid, making it a natural fit as a conference room ceiling microphone in commercial-grade installations. It combines patented automatic dynamic beamforming with flexible platform integration to suit a wide range of unified communications deployments.

Product Description

The CT-W 2FT is designed as a drop-in replacement for a standard 2 ft x 2 ft suspended ceiling tile, so integrators can align it cleanly within an existing 24-inch ceiling grid for fast, repeatable installs across multiple rooms. Inside the tile, 15 German-engineered pre-polarised condenser capsules drive patented automatic dynamic beamforming, which steers pickup toward active talkers and adapts in real time as people move and the conversation shifts. Enhanced exclusion zones let you mute predictable noise sources such as HVAC vents, doorways, or adjacent equipment, keeping the captured audio focused on the conference table. Configuration is handled through PartnerLink, which allows direct setup within Q-SYS Designer Software, with additional platforms planned, and a browser-based local user interface (LUI) is available for setup and fine-tuning. For fleets of devices, DeviceHub provides cloud-based management so technicians can monitor and adjust units remotely. Audio leaves the device over a single 3-pin analog terminal output, and the wired connection supports single-cable, split-mode, and daisy-chain topologies to match the room's cabling plan. Automatic speaker-position detection feeds talker location data to compatible cameras for accurate camera tracking, while TruVoiceLift supports in-room voice reinforcement for larger or more challenging spaces. The 2FT version is slightly larger and heavier than the standard CT-W, so plan grid support and the included safety rope and suspension kit accordingly. For smaller rooms or different grid layouts, compare it with the Sennheiser TeamConnect Ceiling Medium to confirm the right fit for each space.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which platforms does the TeamConnect Ceiling M Plus CT-W 2FT integrate with?
It supports PartnerLink for direct configuration inside Q-SYS Designer Software, with additional platforms planned. A browser-based local user interface (LUI) is also available for commissioning and adjustment.

How does the 2x2 ceiling-tile version install into a 24-inch grid?
The CT-W 2FT is sized to replace a standard 2 ft x 2 ft suspended ceiling tile, so it drops directly into an existing 24-inch grid using the included ceiling tile plate, flush mount kit, suspension kit, and safety rope. Because this version is larger and heavier than the standard CT-W, confirm the grid and structure can support the 4,300 g weight.

How large a room can a single unit cover?
One unit provides voice pickup up to 4.3 m and covers rooms up to 60 m squared, making it suitable for typical conference rooms and boardrooms.

Can I manage multiple units across several rooms?
Yes. DeviceHub provides cloud-based management, allowing technicians to monitor, configure, and maintain deployed units remotely without visiting each room individually.

Does it support camera tracking?
Yes. Automatic speaker-position detection supplies talker location data to compatible cameras, enabling accurate, hands-free camera tracking during meetings.

What warranty and support are included?
The product carries a 5-year warranty (2 years in the AMER region). For purchasing and support, order at Creation Networks.
