Relacart ACM-582 - AI-Powered Ceiling Microphone for Professional AV Installations
2025-07-21A New Standard in Conference Audio
At InfoComm USA 2025 in Orlando, Relacart introduced the ACM‑582, an advanced AI‑powered ceiling array microphone designed for professional AV installations. Presented under the banner “AI‑Powered Acoustic Revolution”, the ACM‑582 combines artificial intelligence, advanced acoustic processing and full compatibility with Audio‑over‑IP networks, redefining speech intelligibility in modern conference, education and corporate spaces. Developed with system integrators in mind, the ACM‑582 addresses key requirements of contemporary AV projects: clear and consistent speech capture, simplified installation, network integration and discreet visual design.

Intelligent Audio Processing for AV Environments
At the core of the Relacart ACM‑582 is advanced audio processing based on DNN (Deep Neural Network) technology. This allows the microphone to dynamically suppress reverberation, even in acoustically challenging spaces, resulting in clearer and more natural speech reproduction.
The built‑in AI processor actively reduces narrow‑band acoustic feedback, while bi‑directional echo cancellation ensures smooth communication during full‑duplex conversations. In addition, 360‑degree noise reduction minimises background noise on both ends of the audio path, maintaining speech clarity and consistency in hybrid and multi‑purpose environments.
Discreet Design and Simplified Installation
The ACM‑582 features an ultra‑slim form factor, enabling discreet installation within suspended ceilings or via suspension mounting using steel cable or pipe. This low‑profile design supports clean architectural integration and meets the aesthetic expectations of modern meeting and learning spaces.
Only a single network cable (Cat5e or higher) is required for power and data, thanks to PoE / PoE+ support. 
This significantly simplifies system design and installation while reducing infrastructure complexity. The microphone automatically covers an area of 7.6 x 7.6 metres, eliminating the need for manual pickup zone configuration.
Dante and AES67 Network Integration
The ACM‑582 supports Dante and AES67 protocols, enabling high‑precision, low‑latency audio transmission over standard Ethernet networks. This ensures seamless integration with existing Audio‑over‑IP infrastructures and allows scalability across larger, networked AV systems.
System configuration is carried out using Dante Controller, a widely adopted tool in professional AV environments, enabling efficient deployment and ongoing system management.
Advanced Control via TDM Software
Dedicated Relacart TDM software provides full control over the microphone’s operating parameters. Integrators and technicians can adjust EQ, gain structure, filtering and LED colour settings, allowing the microphone to be precisely tailored to the acoustic and operational requirements of each project.
This level of control supports flexible system commissioning and reduces on‑site optimisation time during installation.
Why Choose the Relacart ACM‑582?
The Relacart ACM‑582 is designed for intelligent, future‑ready collaboration spaces. It is well suited for new conference room designs, lecture hall upgrades and hybrid meeting environments where audio quality, system reliability and visual discretion are critical. By combining AI‑driven audio processing, Dante and AES67 network integration, automatic coverage and a minimalist design, the ACM‑582 sets a new benchmark for ceiling microphones in professional AV installations.
