The Yealink SkySound CM20 is a round beamforming microphone that mounts on or in the ceiling of a medium or large meeting room, so the table stays clear. Sixteen microphones cover up to 60 m², with the best full-duplex pickup across 30 m², and a built-in DSP lets it plug straight into a Yealink MVC room system with no separate audio processor.

About the Yealink SkySound CM20
A ceiling microphone hears the room from above, leaving the table clear. The CM20 splits the room into 8 pickup zones and outputs 8 beams that follow whoever is talking, and it works with the room cameras to improve camera tracking. Noise, echo and reverberation reduction run on the microphone itself.
Installation takes one Ethernet cable, which carries both power (PoE) and audio. On a Yealink MVC system the CM20 is plug and play, because its own DSP does the audio processing. It also supports AES67 for joining other audio networks. It can be fitted into the ceiling, hung on a pendant, or mounted on the ceiling surface, and the magnetic mesh cover comes off for cleaning.
