Enterprise collaboration technology is evolving rapidly, and organizations are demanding more from the devices they deploy in meeting spaces. Security, lifecycle management, consistency, and cloud-based control are no longer optional—they are baseline expectations for enterprise IT teams managing collaboration environments at scale.

That’s why the announcement that Biamp has joined the Microsoft Device Ecosystem Platform (MDEP) marks such an important milestone for the future of professional AV.

By becoming an MDEP partner, Biamp expands its long-standing relationship with Microsoft while bringing something entirely new to the platform: a native professional DSP ecosystem purpose-built for modern collaboration spaces.

A new standard for enterprise collaboration solutions

MDEP is Microsoft's enterprise-grade Android platform, built so customers and device partners can deploy at scale with confidence—secure by design and managed across the full life of the product. Backed by Microsoft's sustained investment in Android since 2011, MDEP delivers:

• Standardized enterprise management infrastructure 

• Microsoft-managed security updates 

• Hardware-based attestation 

• Integration with Microsoft Intune 

• A managed OS lifecycle Microsoft stands behind for the life of the product

For enterprise IT organizations, this creates a collaboration platform that aligns more closely with the standards already expected from laptops, desktops, and mobile devices.

In other words, collaboration technology is becoming true enterprise infrastructure—and Biamp is now part of that future.

Bringing professional DSP to MDEP

Biamp enters the program as the first MDEP partner to bring native professional DSP capabilities to the platform. That distinction matters because enterprise meeting spaces increasingly require more than basic conferencing hardware.

Modern rooms demand:

• High-quality audio processing 

• Intelligent acoustic tuning 

• Scalable peripheral ecosystems 

• Seamless cloud management 

• Flexible deployment across room sizes 

By combining decades of professional AV expertise with the Microsoft-managed MDEP ecosystem, Biamp helps bridge the gap between enterprise IT expectations and premium meeting room performance.

As Joe Andrulis, Executive Vice President of Corporate Development at Biamp, explained:

“Joining MDEP means we can build on a foundation that enterprise IT teams already trust, and focus our energy on delivering the audio quality, depth of ecosystem, and cloud management capabilities that make Biamp unique.”

Built for every meeting space

Devio UCX is available in three models to support a wide range of collaboration environments:

• UCX 1000 — Ideal for smaller spaces requiring core collaboration capabilities 

• UCX 2000 — Designed for rooms using networked microphones and distributed loudspeakers 

• UCX 3000 — Built for premium spaces requiring dual displays, multi-camera support, and advanced AI capabilities 

This tiered approach allows organizations to standardize on a single platform while scaling functionality based on room requirements.

A major step forward for enterprise AV

The collaboration between Biamp and Microsoft represents more than a platform integration—it signals a broader shift in how enterprise AV systems are designed, managed, and secured.

As meeting spaces become increasingly critical to organizational productivity, IT teams need solutions that combine:

• Enterprise-grade management 

• Predictable security updates 

• Cloud-connected workflows 

• Professional AV performance 

With MDEP and Devio UCX, Biamp helps deliver exactly that.

The future of collaboration is no longer just about connecting devices—it’s about creating secure, scalable, intelligently managed ecosystems built for the modern enterprise.
