That design works very well in small and medium spaces, but in a longer room the microphones are inevitably far from the people seated at the back — and those participants are the ones remote attendees struggle to hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EX-MIC addresses this directly by placing an additional array on the table, closer to the seats the video bar cannot cover well. Because it is a genuine Poly accessory, its input is processed within the Studio X audio pipeline — the same noise suppression and echo cancellation apply, so it behaves as an extension of the system rather than a bolted-on second microphone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor an organisation that has already invested in Studio X hardware, this is the sensible next step when a room proves larger than the video bar alone can handle. Installation takes minutes, requires no configuration, and does not disturb the existing room setup or call platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#0060a9;font-size:17px;margin:26px 0
