Overview

The Sennheiser TeamConnect Ceiling Medium CT-W 2FT is a white ceiling microphone array for meeting rooms and hybrid learning spaces. Automatic beamforming focuses pickup on talkers, it is certified for Microsoft Teams, and PoE powers it over a single cable. Its 606.5 mm square housing suits boardrooms and classrooms in Doha and beyond that need discreet ceiling audio.

A white 2FT ceiling array for meeting rooms and hybrid spaces

The Sennheiser TeamConnect Ceiling Medium CT-W 2FT is the white, 2FT-format model in the TeamConnect Ceiling Medium family. Its square housing measures 606.5 mm by 606.5 mm, stands 45.8 mm high and weighs 4.3 kg. Mounting the microphone in the ceiling removes the table-top units that clutter boardroom layouts and lets every seat pick up speech without a visible device in front of it.

The array combines automatic dynamic beamforming, which steers pickup toward active talkers, with TruVoicelift and Intelligent Noise Control. Those functions aim at clear speech in the room and at remote participants hearing the room through a conferencing system.

Audio figures that matter in a meeting room

Buyers comparing ceiling arrays should look at the figures below, which come from the manufacturer data for this model.

Frequency response: 100 Hz to 16,000 Hz, covering the speech band.
Signal-to-noise ratio: 79 dB(A).
Dynamic range: 83 dB(A), with an equivalent noise level of 15 dB(A).
Maximum sound pressure level: 98 dB SPL.
Sensitivity: 0 dBV/Pa (1020 mV/Pa), using pre-polarised condenser transducers.

Exclusion and priority zones let administrators mark areas of the room that should be ignored or favoured, such as an air vent or a seat that should always be heard. Camera control via talker position data allows a compatible system to frame the active speaker, which helps hybrid sessions where remote attendees need to see who is talking.

Power, connectivity and control

The array is PoE and PoE+ powered and can be daisy-chained, with power consumption of approximately 8 W. Single-cable mode reduces the cabling to plan above a suspended ceiling. The audio output is a 3-pin terminal that fits the Phoenix MCVW 1.5-3-ST-3.81 connector, and a Phoenix connector is included in the box. Dante or analog output options are listed for the family. Network access supports IEEE 802.1x, and third-party control uses an encrypted Sennheiser Sound Control Protocol API (SSCv2) with TLS 1.2.

The unit is password protected by default. It must be initialised with Sennheiser Control Cockpit before first use, and audio stays muted until that initialisation is complete. Plan for an IT administrator to carry this out during commissioning.

Where it fits across Qatar

A boardroom in West Bay or Msheireb: a senior team joins calls with colleagues abroad and wants even pickup from every chair without table microphones cluttering the surface.
A classroom or seminar room in Education City or Lusail: a lecturer moves around the room while remote students join through a conferencing platform, so ceiling pickup keeps audio consistent.
A government office in Doha: bilingual meetings run in Arabic and English, and the team wants a tidy ceiling-mounted installation that suits a formal room.

What to plan before you order

Start with the ceiling. The 2FT name points to a 2-foot tile format, but confirm the grid, plenum depth and access with the SmartRooms Qatar team before ordering. The source data gives an operating relative humidity of 20 to 95 percent, non-condensing, but no operating temperature range. Confirm ceiling void conditions with the team before installing in any space where temperatures may run high.

Check that the network can supply PoE or PoE+ power to the ceiling position. Each unit is supplied as a complete kit that includes a ceiling tile plate, flush mount kit, suspension kit, safety rope and Phoenix connector. SmartRooms Qatar offers free site surveys and professional installation across Qatar, and the product carries the manufacturer's warranty.

Request a quote from SmartRooms Qatar with your room size, ceiling type and whether you need an LPO or tender route, and the team will usually respond with a quotation within one working day.

Questions about TeamConnect Ceiling Medium CT-W 2FT

What is the Sennheiser TeamConnect Ceiling Medium CT-W 2FT used for?

It is a white ceiling microphone array for meeting rooms, boardrooms and hybrid learning spaces. Automatic beamforming picks up active talkers across the room, and the manufacturer certifies it for Microsoft Teams. It suits Qatari organisations that run calls with remote colleagues and want the table kept clear of microphones.

How does the CT-W 2FT differ from the standard CT-W?

Both are white ceiling arrays from the same family. The CT-W 2FT has a 606.5 mm square housing and weighs 4.3 kg, while the CT-W measures 590.8 mm and weighs 4.1 kg. Check the tile format and grid with the SmartRooms Qatar team before ordering, because the size difference matters when matching the housing to your ceiling.

Is it certified for Microsoft Teams?

Yes. The manufacturer lists this array as certified for Microsoft Teams. If your room already runs a Teams system, include the room type, display and codec details in your quote request so the SmartRooms Qatar team can confirm how the array will integrate before you order.

How is it powered, and what does it draw?

It is PoE and PoE+ powered and can be daisy-chained, with power consumption of approximately 8 W. Because power comes over the network cable, plan a network point at the ceiling position and confirm that your PoE switch or injector has enough budget for the number of units you install.

What is single-cable mode?

Single-cable mode is a listed feature that simplifies integration because the array connects over one cable, reducing the cabling to plan above the ceiling. It helps in older buildings across Doha where ceiling voids are tight and running several cables to each microphone position would be slow. Confirm the cable route during the site survey.

Does it need setup before use?

Yes. The array is password protected by default and must be initialised with Sennheiser Control Cockpit before first use. Audio stays muted until initialisation is complete, which is a deliberate security step. Assign an IT administrator to carry this out during commissioning so the room is ready for its first meeting.

What are the main audio specifications?

The frequency response runs from 100 Hz to 16,000 Hz. Signal-to-noise ratio is 79 dB(A), dynamic range is 83 dB(A), and equivalent noise level is 15 dB(A). Maximum sound pressure level is 98 dB SPL, and sensitivity is 0 dBV/Pa (1020 mV/Pa). The transducer is a pre-polarised condenser built with 15 electret condenser capsules made in Germany.

Which audio outputs does it offer?

The audio output is a 3-pin terminal that fits the Phoenix MCVW 1.5-3-ST-3.81 connector, and a Phoenix connector is included in the box. The product family is also listed with Dante or analog output options. Confirm which output your conferencing or audio system needs before ordering, since the choice affects how the array connects to your equipment.

What mounting options are available and what comes in the box?

The kit includes a ceiling tile plate, flush mount kit, suspension kit, safety rope, Phoenix connector and the TCC M conferencing microphone. The family supports flush, surface, suspended and VESA mounting. Choose the method during the site survey, since it depends on the ceiling construction and whether the array sits flush or hangs below the tiles.

Can it be used in a classroom where the teacher moves around?

Yes, it suits hybrid learning spaces where a teacher or lecturer moves around the room while remote students join. Exclusion and priority zones let administrators shape pickup, and camera control via talker position data can support a compatible system. Schools in Lusail or Education City should plan the seating layout with the team during the site survey.

Will it cope with Qatar's summer heat?

The source data gives an operating relative humidity of 20 to 95 percent, non-condensing, but does not state an operating temperature range. Plan it for air-conditioned meeting rooms and ask the SmartRooms Qatar team to confirm ceiling void conditions before installation, especially in spaces with high heat gain or near external walls.

Can we order it through an LPO or a government tender?

Yes. SmartRooms Qatar supplies against LPOs and government tenders, including Monaqasat, and accepts payment by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order. Delivery covers all 8 municipalities of Qatar. Send the room details and quantity with your request, and the team will usually issue a quotation within one working day.
