TesiraFORTÉ X 800

A meeting room DSP for networked audio and echo control

The TesiraFORTÉ X 800 is a digital signal processor for conference rooms that need clear speech in both directions, a flexible network audio backbone and a fast commissioning process. It measures 206 mm square and 37.3 mm high, weighs 0.86 kg and comes with a surface-mount bracket, which makes it practical to fit in a credenza, equipment cabinet or ceiling void where space is tight.

Echo cancellation and processing where the room needs it

The unit provides eight channels of acoustic echo cancellation. Each one can be assigned to any analog or digital input, so you choose which microphone signal is cleaned rather than being limited to fixed inputs. The AEC channels support up to eight Parlé microphones. Signal processing covers EQ, mixing, filtering, dynamics and delay, and input gain runs from 0 to 66 dB in 6 dB steps with a maximum input level of +24 dBu. Dynamic range is rated above 108 dB, which gives the far end a clean, consistent voice path.

Network audio, USB and VoIP in one unit

• 128x128 AVB channels and 64x64 AVB streams
• 32x32 Dante channels with AES67 interoperability
• 2x2 analog I/O and 1x1 or 2x2 USB audio at 48 kHz
• Five Gigabit Ethernet ports, four supplying PoE+
• SIP VoIP and IEEE 802.1X authentication for secure networks

HID synchronization on USB lets the unit act as a plug-and-play conferencing audio device for a UC compute system or a BYOM workflow. Workplace Control is built into the platform, so Tesira DSP blocks, third-party devices and Apprimo touch interfaces can be managed from one environment.

Setup with Biamp Launch and certified UC platforms

Biamp Launch runs a one-touch automated tuning process. It analyses room acoustics, adjusts DSP settings and produces a performance report, which helps integrators repeat the same result across several rooms. Where a project needs a custom workflow, engineers can bypass automation and configure the system manually in Tesira software. The X 800 is certified for Microsoft Teams Rooms and Zoom, is listed as Cisco Verified, and is compatible with Parlé Presenter Lift for feedback-free presentation audio without handheld or podium microphones.

Where it fits across Qatar

• Boardroom in West Bay: ceiling or table microphones need echo control while the room joins partners abroad over Teams or Zoom.
• Seminar room in Education City: a lecturer needs stable audio with a link to a Dante network across the campus.
• Ministry meeting room in Msheireb: the listed certifications and the five-year manufacturer warranty support the procurement file.

What to plan before you order

Power input is 100 to 240 VAC at 50/60 Hz with a draw under 150 W, which covers Qatar mains at 240 V and 50 Hz. The rated ambient operating range is 0 to 40°C at altitudes up to 2,000 m, so do not install it in a hot, unventilated store or equipment room where summer heat can exceed that limit. Choose a cooled room or cabinet. Plan microphones, loudspeakers and the video codec alongside the DSP, and total the PoE+ demand across the four powered ports. Phantom power is +48 VDC at 7 mA per input.
