Shure MXN5W-C Microflex Networked Ceiling Loudspeaker - White
The Shure MXN5W-C delivers high-quality speech reproduction optimized for AV conferencing in boardrooms, huddle rooms, and meeting spaces. Its low-profile, shallow-can design installs easily into most drop ceilings with included accessories, while the pre-tuned frequency response ensures clear, intelligible voice performance. Powered via PoE or PoE+, it eliminates the need for separate amplifiers or outboard DSP, with integrated Shure DSP utilities including 4-band parametric EQ, delay, limiter, and signal/tone generator for streamlined setup and control through Shure Designer software.
This networked loudspeaker features a 2-way driver system with a 5.25-inch woofer and 0.75-inch tweeter, supporting 2 Dante inputs and 1 Dante output with AES67 compatibility. The aesthetic design includes a removable magnetic paintable grille and Shure logo for seamless blending into ceiling environments. UL 2043 plenum rating supports air-handling spaces, and advanced security protocols such as 802.1x, secure boot/storage, and AES encryption provide reliable protection in enterprise deployments.
