Description
A room microphone, not a portable speakerphone
The CP50 is a conference omnidirectional microphone, that is part of the room's audio. It is not a device to carry in a bag with a laptop, which is the role of the CP900, CP700 and SP92. The CP50 stays on the table, connects into the system and handles voice pickup where the camera has no microphone of its own.
One unit for six metres, more units for a longer table
The unit picks up across 360 degrees to a distance of 6 metres, so it covers an ordinary meeting table from a single spot. For a longer table or an awkward room Yealink allows daisy chaining over a network cable with PoE power, up to eight units. Extending the coverage is therefore a matter of another unit and a cable, not of replacing the whole system.
Two ways to connect, depending on what the room has
To a computer the CP50 connects over USB; into a system it connects over Ethernet, either to a conference terminal or to a UVC camera. In the UVC85-BYOD-200 system the manufacturer describes exactly this wiring: one USB-C cable from the computer to the CP50 and one network cable between the CP50 and the camera. The laptop therefore sees both the camera and the room audio over a single cable.
Strengths and limits
Strengths
360-degree pickup up to 6 metres from one spot on the table
Up to eight units chained over a network cable with PoE, extension without replacing the system
Two ways to connect, USB to a computer or Ethernet into a system
The adapter and all cables, including 7.5 m of Ethernet, are in the box
Limits and what to tell the customer
The CP50 is not a replacement for the CP900. It is a room microphone, not a portable speakerphone. A customer who wants to carry the device around should be offered the CP900, CP700 or SP92.
The CP50 is a microphone and has no speaker. Playing audio into the room has to be handled by another part of the system or by the display.
The CP50 connects over USB-C and Ethernet. It has no Bluetooth, so the unit does not belong in a specification where a wireless connection is a requirement.
Mind the cables in the box. The USB-C cable is 1.2 m; the 1.8 m cable is HDMI. For a greater distance from the computer, plan your own cabling.
There is one power adapter in the box. When chaining further units, settle the power for the specific system, and we will confirm it.
⚑ atlantis note
When the CP50 and when a portable speakerphone
What decides is whether the device stays in the room. The CP50 is a fixed part of the system, connects over Ethernet to a camera or a terminal and can be chained. The portable CP900, CP700 and SP92 are a user's peripheral. The word "speakerphone" invites confusion with the CP50, but the CP50 is not a speakerphone, it is a microphone.
The system or separate codes
Where the customer needs a camera and audio for a medium or large room, compare the 1106896 system (UVC85-BYOD-200) against the separate codes. The system holds two boxes, the UVC85 camera and the CP50 microphone, each with its own adapter and its own 7.5 m Ethernet cable.
Settle a longer table up front
Pickup reaches 6 metres. A longer table calls for another CP50 unit and a network cable with PoE between the units, with up to eight of them. Agree it during the design, because pulling a cable through the table afterwards means a second site visit.
Which room it suits
Manufacturer positioning | conference omnidirectional microphone, part of the room's audio |
|---|---|
Pickup distance | 6 metres, 360° pickup |
Typical wiring | to a UVC camera or a conference terminal over Ethernet, to a computer over USB |
Good fit
A medium or large meeting room with a camera and audio system, a room where the audio should be picked up from the middle of the table, and BYOD use where the laptop connects with a single USB-C cable.
Verify
How long the meeting table is, because of the number of units. How the network cable will run between the unit and the camera. Where the socket for the power adapter is. What will play the audio into the room. Whether the customer also has their own display and computer for the camera.
Consider another model
The CP900, CP700 or SP92 where the device is meant to be portable. The CP965 where the room has its own telephone line. The UVC34 or UVC40 E2 video bar in a small room, where camera, microphones and speaker should sit in one body.
The "Verify" and "Consider another model" cards come from the experience of the atlantis team.

What to check before ordering and deploying
Table length: pickup reaches 6 metres, a longer table calls for another unit
Chaining: a network cable with PoE between units, up to eight of them
Wiring: USB to a computer, or Ethernet to a camera or conference terminal
Cables: the box holds 1.2 m of USB-C, 7.5 m of Ethernet and 1.8 m of HDMI; longer runs need your own cabling
Power: a socket for the 48 V adapter at every unit
Audio playback: the CP50 is a microphone, so another part of the system plays audio into the room
Camera: which model the unit will complement, and whether the
1106896system is the better buyCable routing: a grommet in the table and the placement of the unit; the cable cover and ties are in the box
The atlantis team will help with every point. On the CP50 most often with working out the number of units for the shape of the table and with linking it to the chosen camera.
Management and services
Management follows the platform: in native mode the device is managed from the administration of the platform the room runs.
Yealink Management Cloud Service (YMCS): cloud management of Yealink devices, that is bulk firmware updates, status monitoring and alerts. Support and the scope of management differ by model and licence, so check both with us for the specific device and system.
atlantis services for partners
atlantis is a direct importer and distributor, and we deliver projects through a network of specialist partners. The services below are therefore offered to the partner, not to the end customer. The partner sets the scope. On one project we take on the whole delivery, on another we cover just the part the partner currently lacks capacity or specialisation for, and on a third the partner manages alone and uses us only for a consultation.
Before the decision: a consultation on choosing the system and a comparison of the suitable options. The recommendation is built on the size and the character of the room, that is light, acoustics, shape, seating layout and furnishing, then on headcount and on how meetings are actually run there. We offer a live demonstration at our premises, which the partner can bring their customer to, and where it is warranted a test installation, that is a proof of concept.
Delivery and installation: transport, professional mounting and the work that goes with it, that is cabling, installation material, brackets and room alterations. We handle the installation in full, or support the partner's own team where needed.
Network readiness and security: we advise on preparing the network for the demands of two-way real-time video, that is throughput, latency and traffic prioritisation, and on securing the communication.
Configuration and integration: setting up the communication platform and the room account, connecting to the network, and advice on linking and integrating third-party software and hardware.
Training and documentation: training prepared to match the user's role, that is one thing for room users and another for administrators, plus preparation of both project and user documentation.
Service and support after the sale: our certified team in Czech, available to the partner throughout the equipment's life. We handle a warranty claim with the manufacturer on the partner's behalf.
Warranty
The standard warranty on Yealink products is 24 months. On top of it we offer two different things that are easy to confuse.
Extended warranty
AMS
Extends the warranty period, that is how long the customer is entitled to repair or replacement of a faulty unit. The abbreviation stands for Assurance Maintenance Services.
1 to 3 years
Service programme
PrimeCare
Changes how the service is delivered. It covers priority support with escalation during business hours, advance hardware replacement with the unit dispatched the next business day from local European service stock, warranty service aligned with the licence period, the YMCS-Room-Professional package, software updates and access to the Yealink online support centre.
2 to 5 years
Take note
Which one to pick
A customer buys one of them, not both. AMS is enough where a longer warranty is all that is needed, PrimeCare is the choice where room downtime is expensive and the customer needs fast replacement and management. For video products the cap on total warranty is five years, and AMS is bought consecutively, so it must not leave a gap at the end of the existing warranty.
