What size room the Neat Board Pro covers, how many people it suits and when you need extra microphones.
Short answer
We recommend it for medium rooms (6–10 people) and large rooms (10–16 people).
The specs that decide room size
| Zoom | Hybrid zoom up to 16x |
| Camera | 100 MP system: wide 50 MP 113° HFOV + tele 50 MP 70° HFOV |
| Microphones | 5 mics in end-fire array + 5 sensor mics |
| Audio pickup | 33 ft / 10 m reach |
| Speakers | 3 full-range speakers, woofers with opposing drivers |
How room sizes map to people
| Room type | Typical people | Typical size |
|---|---|---|
| Small | 4–6 | 150–250 sq ft |
| Medium (this one) | 6–10 | 250–400 sq ft |
| Large (this one) | 10–16 | 400–600 sq ft |
| Boardroom | 16+ | 600+ sq ft |
General industry guidance; furniture, room shape and acoustics change what works.
When to add microphones
The built-in microphones pick up about 33 ft (10 m). Add a table or ceiling mic if the farthest seat is more than about 33 ft from the collaboration board.
