Acoustic Treatment for Cisco’s Conference Room

Project Overview

Cisco’s offices in a prominent business building in Bulgaria faced a growing challenge: busy internal calls in their international teleconference room were getting lost in the noise. Conversations sounded muffled, and important meetings lacked the clear communication that’s most needed for global teams.

DECIBEL was brought in to deliver a complete acoustic treatment, an upgrade that would make the room more quiet and the sound inside it more clear.

Why Acoustic Treatment Matters

Acoustics in conference rooms matter a lot, but especially for global companies like Cisco, sound clarity is everything. A dedicated teleconference room is only as good as its acoustics. Echo and poor sound control can make even the best equipment fail, resulting in costing time, focus, and team confidence.

Acoustic treatment makes sure that every voice comes through crisp and clear, no matter how busy the conversation.

Challenge

The room was well-equipped but acoustically harsh. Reflective surfaces were bouncing voices back and forth, making it hard for remote teams to follow discussions. In a room where clear communication drives collaboration across countries, fixing the reverberation problem was urgent.

Scope of Work

• Acoustic analysis of the teleconference room to identify reflection spots
• Design and installation of a full acoustic treatment system
• Selection and placement of textile-wrapped acoustic panels for best results
• Integration of the treatment with the existing room design and technology

Solution

DECIBEL designed a treatment plan centered on textile acoustic panels. These panels were strategically placed around the room to absorb reflections and control the mid- and high-frequency noise that makes conversations unclear.

The panels were chosen for their technical performance and their clean, modern look, and they fitted seamlessly into the professional setting of Cisco’s offices.

Result

The new acoustic treatment transformed the space. Conversations became clearer and easier to follow, both in the room and for international callers on the other end. Employees noticed the difference immediately!

The room is now a place where busy calls don’t clash - just as Cisco’s teams needed it to be.
