How to resolve AdBlock issue? MXL AC-360-A
MXL Microphones, a company with expertise in professional audio solutions, unveils its new AC-360-A USB Conference Room Microphone at InfoComm 2026 (Booth C7521). Re-designed for today’s collaborative environments, the upgraded AC-360-A combines sleek design, flexible deployment and a unique analog daisy-chain architecture. This simplifies multi-microphone installations while ensuring every voice in the room is heard with clarity. The AC-360-A is a compact, all-metal USB microphone engineered specifically for professional meeting spaces. Fully compatible with popular conferencing platforms, such as Microsoft Teams, Zoom and Google Meet, it provides a plug-and-play solution for seamless integration into any workflow.
“The AC-360-A reflects our commitment to making professional-quality audio simple and scalable for any meeting environment,” says Marc Bilderbach, Product Marketing Specialist for MXL Microphones. “Whether you're outfitting a small huddle room or a large conference space, this microphone ensures consistent, intelligible audio without the complexity typically associated with multi-microphone systems.”
At the core of the AC-360-A’s performance are twelve internal microphone capsules arranged across four quadrants, delivering true 360-degree coverage. The system captures clear speech up to 5-feet in any direction, providing a 25-foot diameter coverage area. This allows many meeting spaces to be covered with a single microphone, reducing system complexity and setup time. “The ability to achieve full-room coverage from a single device is a game changer for organizations looking to streamline their conferencing setups,” adds Bilderbach.
For larger or more complex spaces, the AC-360-A now can be expanded using 3.5mm TRS analog daisy-chaining, allowing multiple units to be connected in sequence. Audio is routed from the most distant microphone through the chain to the computer, where a single USB connection at the final unit manages the digital output. By combining analog daisy-chaining with a single USB output, the AC-360-A avoids the instability and limitations of multi-device USB audio systems, delivering a more stable and predictable conferencing experience. “Scalability was a key design priority when we upgraded the AC-360,” says Bilderbach. “By enabling multiple units to connect effortlessly, users can now build a system that grows with their needs while maintaining consistent audio performance.”
Built with durability in mind, the AC-360-A features a reinforced all-metal construction suited for high-traffic conference rooms and shared workspaces. Designed for fast, flexible installation in real-world environments, removable rubber feet and included mounting pads allow for quick placement on tables or other surfaces. An optional AC360CM ceiling mount adapter provides a clean solution for permanent overhead installations. Powered entirely via USB, the AC-360-A eliminates external power supplies and reduces cable complexity, offering reliable, plug-and-play operation for quick deployment in any professional setting.
