Crestron UC-AUDIO-1-B-DR2 Flex Pod Wireless Audio Kit with Hub and Pod, Black

About the Crestron UC-AUDIO-1-B-DR2

The pod is a tabletop speaker and microphone with a 2 in. full range driver (100 Hz to 7 kHz, 74 dB SPL at 1 m) and a 360° quad microphone array with about 2.3 m pickup. Acoustic echo cancellation, automatic gain control and dynamic noise suppression give full-duplex audio. Backlit capacitive buttons handle volume and mic mute, with green, red and white LEDs showing mute state and volume.

The hub links to the pod over DECT and sends and receives audio to a UC Engine through a USB-C connection, which also carries HID data. The system can be expanded to four pods on one hub. This DR2 kit uses the 1880 to 1900 MHz band with 10 channels. Crestron also makes a DR1 kit for the 1920 to 1930 MHz band, so check the DR version on existing units when adding to a system.

The pod is powered through USB-C at 5 VDC, 3 A from an included 100 to 240 VAC power pack, and the hub takes 24 VDC, 0.75 A from its own included power pack; the hub also has a 1000 Mbps Ethernet port listed as a 4 W, Class 0 PoE powered device. The pod is tabletop only, with a Kensington security slot, while the hub can stand free, stack, surface mount or go on a wall or ceiling with a bracket.

Questions about the Crestron UC-AUDIO-1-B-DR2

What is in the UC-AUDIO-1-B-DR2 KIT?

The kit contains one Crestron Flex UC-AUDIO-POD wireless speaker and microphone and one UC-AUDIO-HUB wireless hub, in black. The pod links to the hub over DECT, and the hub connects to a UC Engine by USB-C. The pod and the hub each come with their own external power pack.

How many pods can the UC-AUDIO-1-B-DR2 system use?

The kit comes with one pod, and the system can be expanded to support up to four pods connected wirelessly to the hub. The hub has SYNC LEDs that indicate pairing and connection with each pod, and both units have a pair button and a recessed reset button.

What does DR2 mean on this kit?

DR2 is the frequency version. The DR2 kit uses the 1880 to 1900 MHz band with 10 channels, while the separate DR1 version uses 1920 to 1930 MHz with 5 channels. Pods and hubs added later should be checked against the DR version already in the room.

How are the pod and hub powered?

The pod is powered through its USB-C port at 5 VDC, 3 A from an external 100 to 240 VAC power pack included with the pod. The hub takes 24 VDC, 0.75 A from an external power pack included with the hub, and its 1000 Mbps LAN port is listed as a PoE powered device at 4 W, Class 0.

Where can the pod and hub be placed?

Because the link is wireless, the pod can be placed anywhere on a conference table. It is for tabletop use only, with an optional tabletop mounting accessory and a Kensington security slot. The hub can be freestanding, stacked, surface mounted, or fixed to a wall or ceiling with a bracket.

Is the UC-AUDIO-1-B-DR2 in stock?

We order Crestron for each quote, so availability depends on Crestron's stock at the time. We check it before we quote and put the expected delivery date on your quote, so you know where you stand before you pay.

Can I buy the UC-AUDIO-1-B-DR2 without installation?

Yes. We supply Crestron to end users, with or without installation. Like most Crestron devices of this type, it needs setting up or programming before it works in a system, and we can quote for that too.
