busses equals 12 inputs), and 2 mixes of the P Bus for the telephone. The 23 x 17 main matrix has the following outputs: Outputs 1-4 and A-D, AEC Reference 1 and 2, W, X, Y, and Z outputs to the digital expansion bus, P output to the digital expansion bus, output to the power amplifier, and output to the phone line. The EF2241 has 24 bit resolution, 32-bit floating point computation, and a 48 kHz sampling rate.

Polycom’s proprietary noise cancellation on each of the 4 mic/line inputs and the tele- phone line helps to keep overall ambient noise to a minimum. Polycom echo cancel- lers are the only ones on the market to feature this patented technology. Noise cancellation filters out ambient background noise such as noise from heating, venti- lating and air conditioning (HVAC), LCD projectors, and road noise. Our noise can- cellation technology is not a noise gate. It actually removes noise. Therefore, it enhances the operation and improves the sound quality of an automixer, for example, by preventing it from bringing the noise level up and down when microphones are gated on and off. By cancelling the noise picked up by each microphone, the overall signal to noise ratio (SNR) is preserved. The result is crystal clear speech over a greater decibel range than any other echo canceller. That means reduced listener fatigue and a higher quality audio conference.
