M3 TRI-ELEMENT OPERATING PROCEDURE
The M3 contains three independent microphones and audio channels for interfacing into the mixing
device or audio console. The Audix provided breakout cable is designed to interface with a profes
-
sional DSP controller using terminal blocks.
Audix has an optional breakout cable that terminates with three XLR connectors.
The M3 microphone requires phantom power voltage of 18-52 volts.
BREAKOUT CABLE PIN CONFIGURATION (STANDARD T568B)
Microphone Placement
Although the M3 can be hung from a variety of heights, Audix recommends 8’ to 8 ½’ AFF (above
finished floor) placement. When capturing larger zone areas such as open seating or distance
learning, the M3 has a coverage radius up to 10’. Most conference table type coverage, however,
will typically utilize a smaller radius. For example: for a 10’ - 12’ conference table two M3
microphones are recommended so that the gain can be lowered and extraneous table and room
noise minimized.
Note
: The M3 is provided with 4 feet of cable that can be adjusted to the desired height. In
cases
where a longer cable is necessary, Audix is able to provide custom lengths. Please call Audix or
your local Audix Sales Representative for more details.
Wiring Tips
Audix CAT 7 cable is recommended to insure high quality, interference free audio over long dis
-
tances. For installations where a different brand of CAT 7 cable is being used, please consult the
wiring diagram below. Audix has designed a breakout cable that is available with terminal block
connectors (supplied) or XLR connectors (optional).
