About the Cisco MSE-820 Telepresence / collaboration endpoint
The Cisco MSE-820 is validated for deployment across Cisco TelePresence systems, Webex Cloud-registered endpoints, and Cisco CUCM on-premises deployments, making it an essential accessory for organizations standardized on Cisco collaboration infrastructure. This modular audio expansion unit extends speaker and microphone capabilities to distributed room layouts, enabling seamless audio pickup and speaker output extension across larger or irregularly shaped meeting spaces. As a tabletop modular unit, the MSE-820 connects directly via the Cisco MSE (Modular Speaker Expansion) interface to a compatible host TelePresence system, requiring no additional integration overhead.
IT infrastructure teams and collaboration architects will find the MSE-820 essential for scaling audio performance in enterprise TelePresence deployments. The unit supports modular expansion topology, allowing organizations to match audio coverage to their physical room footprints without replacing core endpoints. Management occurs transparently through the host Cisco TelePresence system administration interface, and the device is covered under Cisco standard manufacturer support programs including firmware updates and TAC access. Supplied as genuine Cisco hardware (part number MSE-820), it carries Cisco's standard compliance and quality certifications. Contact Omnixon Global for an RFQ on this Cisco collaboration accessory.
Enterprise Audio Expansion Use Cases
- Large boardrooms and executive conference centers requiring distributed microphone pickup across multiple seating zones
- Irregular room geometries where single-endpoint audio coverage is insufficient for full participant capture
- Multi-room Cisco TelePresence deployments needing localized speaker and microphone expansion
- Webex Cloud-registered room systems requiring enhanced audio performance for hybrid meeting scenarios
- On-premises Cisco CUCM environments scaling audio infrastructure without codec replacement
