Sennheiser TeamConnect Intelligent Speaker — Smart Conference Audio for Microsoft Teams Rooms

The Sennheiser TeamConnect Intelligent Speaker (TC ISP) is a fully integrated conference audio solution purpose-built for Microsoft Teams Rooms. Designed for mid-size meeting rooms accommodating up to 10 participants, it combines an omnidirectional loudspeaker with an array of 7 beamforming microphones to deliver exceptional voice pickup, real-time transcription, and automatic speaker identification — all in a single device certified by Microsoft.

Unlike traditional conference systems that require a separate PC, tablet, or audio interface, the TC ISP connects directly via USB or USB-C and is instantly recognized by any Microsoft Teams Rooms setup. There is no audio preparation, no manual configuration, and no additional devices required. Simply plug in, launch Teams, and the room is ready.

The TeamConnect Intelligent Speaker identifies and labels up to 10 individual voices in the room, enabling automatic meeting transcription that names each speaker. This makes meetings genuinely inclusive for remote participants and hard-of-hearing colleagues who rely on written records of spoken contributions. Microsoft Cortana voice intelligence is integrated directly into the device, enabling touchless control — participants can mute, join, or manage calls with simple voice commands, eliminating fumbling with controls during live sessions.
