Hi David,

I'm in the same bag. I have a long conference room, and will be installing a Surface Hub on one end, and I anticipate the need for extra microphones. I have a Polycom CX5500 currently in that room, basically the same as a CX5100 which you said you succesfully tested.

You are a step ahead of me, so appreciate the discussion.
