Parlé DTM-X

What the Parlé DTM-X Black does on a meeting table

The Parlé DTM-X Black is a tabletop microphone that picks up speech directly from the table surface and follows the active talker as the conversation moves around the room. It is designed specifically for Devio UCX meeting room systems, so it suits rooms where that platform is already specified or planned. Because the microphone handles its own digital processing, a Tesira DSP platform is not needed, which keeps the audio chain simpler for a UC meeting room.

Beamtracking pickup, expansion and controls

A 16-element digital array forms beamed pickup and divides coverage into four zones that are controlled independently, with full 360° pickup overall. Automatic conversation tracking follows whoever is speaking, so there is no lobe aiming or room mapping during setup, which saves commissioning time in rooms that are reconfigured often. For longer tables, an RJ-45 port supports one DTM-XEX expansion microphone.

• Mute feedback: an LED mute status indicator shows the microphone state during live calls.
• Speech quality: 150 Hz to 16 kHz frequency response (±3 dB), 90 dB dynamic range (A-weighted) and maximum SPL of 109 dB at 0.5% THD.
• Footprint: 110 mm (4.3-inch) diameter and 18 mm height, so it sits discreetly among laptops and notepads.

Cabling, power and mounting plan

The system uses a single CAT5 connection from the microphone to the network box, which carries audio, control and power. The network box is powered over Ethernet to IEEE 802.3at Class 3 at 15.4 W, so confirm before installation that the switch port or PoE injector serving the room can supply that class. The network box measures 106 mm by 106 mm by 23 mm and weighs 310 g, while the microphone weighs 231 g. For a fixed installation, the optional TTM-X-SM secure mounting bracket (part 910-00521) is available, along with a 16 mm table grommet with 7 mm inside diameter in black (part 920-00524-20000) or white.

Where it fits in Qatar

In a boardroom in West Bay, a ministry or authority can place the DTM-X Black on the central table so that people in the room and colleagues on a Microsoft Teams call hear each speaker clearly. In Lusail, a developer's project office with a compact meeting room can start with one microphone and add the DTM-XEX expansion unit when a longer table is installed. In a seminar room in Education City, the same setup suits teams who join calls with partners abroad during the Sunday to Thursday working week.

Conditions and checks before ordering

The network box is rated for an ambient operating temperature of 0 to 40°C (32 to 104°F), 0 to 95% relative humidity non-condensing, and altitudes up to 3,000 m. Qatar summer temperatures outside can exceed 45°C, so install the network box inside the air-conditioned meeting room rather than in a hot ceiling void or unventilated cabinet, and confirm room conditions with the SmartRooms Qatar team during the free site survey. The product is TAA compliant for government projects and carries FCC Part 15B, CE, UL and C-UL listings, plus RoHS compliance. It is backed by a five-year warranty.

SmartRooms Qatar supplies the Parlé DTM-X Black across all eight municipalities of Qatar, with professional installation available. Request a quote for one room or several, and include item number 920-00029-10000 so the black finish is confirmed on your quotation.
