Requiring only two tiny holes in the faceplate of a device, the DA-252 OEM Array Microphone can deliver directional microphone sensitivity without the need for acoustic baffling, as found in large parabolic waveguides or long shotgun tube type microphones.

The DA-252 is perfect for systems that demand superior microphone sound quality and performance for speech recognition accuracy and/or communication system intelligibility, while at the same time requiring the user to speak at distance from the microphone, providing superior sound quality with far-field/hands-free speakerphone performance.

System Configurations: Stereo Array Microphone with DSDA beam forming, PureAudio noise reduction and EchoStop full duplex echo cancelation.
