Episode EA-COM-WP-MIC-BL Poe Wall Plate Microphone

Product Description

The EPISODE EA-COM-WP-MIC-BL is a Power over Ethernet (PoE) powered wall plate microphone designed for use in audio signal processing and distributed audio systems. It draws power directly from a PoE-capable network switch or injector, eliminating the need for a separate power supply at the installation point. The black finish wall plate form factor allows it to blend into standard decora-style installations. Audio integrators and low-voltage technicians are the primary installers of this type of device in commercial and residential applications.

This wall plate microphone is suited for conference rooms, classrooms, retail environments, and whole-home audio systems where a fixed, flush-mounted microphone input is required. It connects into an audio over IP (AoIP or MoIP) infrastructure, feeding a microphone signal back to an amplifier or audio processor over a structured cabling network. The black finish makes it a practical choice for installations where aesthetics are a priority alongside function.

Key Features

• PoE powered — no separate power supply or transformer required at the wall plate
• Wall plate form factor for clean, flush-mount installation
• Designed for MoIP (Media over IP) and distributed audio signal processing systems
• Black finish for discreet, professional appearance
• Single-unit packaging suitable for individual zone deployment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style component for use within PoE-capable MoIP and distributed audio systems requiring a fixed wall plate microphone input.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or audio-video integrator. Before servicing or replacing the unit, disconnect PoE power at the network switch or injector serving the drop. Terminate the Cat cable to the wall plate according to the manufacturer wiring diagram and verify PoE power delivery before connecting downstream audio equipment. Follow applicable low-voltage wiring codes for your jurisdiction.
