What size room the Yealink SP96 covers, how many people it suits and when you need extra microphones.
Short answer
We recommend it for focus rooms (1–2 people), huddle rooms (2–4 people) and small rooms (4–6 people).
The specs that decide room size
| Microphones | 6 mics with AI noise cancellation, 100-10kHz |
| Pickup range | Up to 5m, all-round |
| Daisy chain | Wireless, up to 2 devices |
How room sizes map to people
| Room type | Typical people | Typical size |
|---|---|---|
| Focus (this one) | 1–2 | Under 80 sq ft |
| Huddle (this one) | 2–4 | 80–150 sq ft |
| Small (this one) | 4–6 | 150–250 sq ft |
| Medium | 6–10 | 250–400 sq ft |
General industry guidance; furniture, room shape and acoustics change what works.
When to add microphones
Yealink: wireless, up to 2 devices. Daisy-chain a second SP96 or add expansion mics to cover tables longer than about 33 ft.
