How to set up the Poly Studio A2 Table Microphone, from unboxing to a working test. It adds microphones to the Studio G62, Studio X72, Studio V72, Studio X52 and others, which also handles its power, settings and firmware.
Before you start: check the box
- Poly Studio A2 table microphone
- Mounting plate
- JST-to-Phoenix input cable (6 m)
- JST-to-Phoenix daisy-chain cable (2 m)
- JST-to-JST daisy-chain cable (1.8 m)
What you need
- A host system: the Studio G62, Studio X72, Studio V72, Studio X52 and others.
Step by step
-
Place it on the table. Put it toward the far end of the table, where people sit beyond the built-in microphones. Keep it clear of laptops and papers.
-
Connect it to the host. Connect it with the included cable to the Studio G62, Studio X72, Studio V72 and others (or its mic hub). The host powers it; there's no separate power supply. Check the host's limit on how many you can add.
-
Add it to the room system. With the host powered on, the Studio A2 Table Microphone is detected automatically. Check the host's settings or admin portal lists it, then set it as part of the room audio.
-
Update the firmware. The Studio A2 Table Microphone updates with its host (Studio G62, Studio X72, Studio V72 and others). See Updating the firmware below.
-
Run a test call. Join a test meeting, talk from the farthest seat, and ask the far end whether you're clear, at a good level and without echo.
Updating the firmware
The Studio A2 Table Microphone updates with its host (Studio G62, Studio X72, Studio V72 and others). Update the host system and the microphone updates with it.
