Audix M70WD Flush-Mount Ceiling Microphone

Flush-Mount Ceiling Microphone for Dante and AES67 Systems

The Audix M70WD is a flush-mount ceiling condenser microphone built specifically for the Audix Dante AES67 microphone ecosystem. It is designed to capture clear, intelligible audio from a distance while keeping the microphone discreetly integrated into the ceiling. This makes it an ideal solution for conferencing rooms, classrooms, medical spaces, and installed AV environments where visibility and consistent coverage matter.

Designed for Networked Audio and Control Integration

Engineered to work within Audix Dante and AES67 systems, the M70WD transmits audio, power, LED status, and control functions over a single Cat 5e, Cat 6, or Cat 7 cable using standard RJ45 connections. This streamlined design simplifies installation, reduces cabling complexity, and ensures reliable performance in modern networked audio infrastructures.

High-Sensitivity Condenser Capsule for Distance Miking

At the core of the M70WD is a high-output 12 mm gold-vapor diaphragm condenser capsule designed for distance miking. Its sensitivity allows it to capture speech and ambient sound clearly from above, making it suitable for video conferencing, distance learning, surveillance monitoring, and ambient room capture without requiring visible tabletop microphones.

Aimable Capsule for Targeted Audio Pickup

The microphone capsule is mounted in an adjustable cradle that allows aiming up to 45 degrees. This directional control helps integrators and installers fine-tune coverage toward specific seating areas, podiums, or workspaces, improving clarity while reducing unwanted room reflections and off-axis noise.

Integrated Electronics with RF Immunity

The M70WD features miniaturized, fully integrated preamp circuitry housed within the microphone body. This design eliminates the need for external preamps while providing immunity from radio frequency interference, ensuring stable and clean audio even in environments filled with wireless devices, lighting systems, and network equipment.

Low-Profile Installation with Visual Status Feedback

Installation requires only a single 2-inch ceiling cutout and no special tools, making deployment fast and clean for both new construction and retrofit projects. A built-in two-color LED status indicator provides clear visual feedback for microphone state, supporting muting and system status monitoring in professional AV installations.
