Connecting Powered Microphones or a Mixer to a VSX 8000
Component System
You can connect two powered microphones directly to the VSX 8000 system,
or you can connect several studio-type microphones to the VSX 8000 system
through an audio mixer.
The VSX 8000 is designed to work with Polycom Vortex mixers. For top
performance, you need Vortex firmware 2.5.2 or later, Conference
Composer™ version 2.7.0 or later, and VSX system software version 8.5 or
later. Refer to your system’s setup sheet for connection details.
Connecting Speakers
You can connect speakers to any VSX system. Some VSX systems have built-in
speakers.
Connecting Speakers or Headphones to Desktop Systems
You can connect desktop speakers to provide better audio for the VSX 3000 or
VSX 3000A system if you place it in a large room, or you can connect
headphones to listen to calls privately. The system’s speaker connector is on
the system’s right side panel, and the headphone connector is on the front of
the system.
Refer to your system’s setup sheet for connection details.
Connecting Speakers to Set-top Systems
If you have a VSX 5000, you must connect speakers to play audio from the far
site. You can use the speakers built into the main monitor.
The other set-top systems have built-in speakers. You can connect an external
speaker system such as the Polycom StereoSurround kit to provide more
volume and richer sound in large rooms. Refer to your system’s setup sheet for
connection details.
Connecting Speakers to Component Systems
You must connect at least one speaker to play audio from the far site. You can
use the speakers built into the main monitor, or you can connect an external
speaker system such as the Polycom StereoSurround kit to provide more
volume and richer sound in large rooms. Refer to your system’s setup sheet for
connection details.
