SYSTEM DESIGN

General
Valcom Amplified Recessed Ceiling Speakers may be
used to provide one-way paging from any Valcom
one-way or talkback page control. The speakers can
also be used to expand existing 70V paging systems.
When power and appropriate input signal are applied,
a voice page can be made.
Page Control Access
(See Figure 1)
When using the Amplified Recessed Ceiling Speakers
with a Valcom page control, the following equipment
will be required:
•
Appropriate one-way speaker assembly
•
Valcom page control
•
Valcom power supply sized to provide power to
operate the amplified speaker assemblies and
page control
NOTE: When using the Valcom one-way interior
speakers with a Valcom handsfree page control, it
is recommended that a V-1092 Volume Control be
connected between the zone output and the
speaker input.
25V or 70V Paging Systems
(See Figure 2)
When using the Amplified Recessed Ceiling Speakers
with an existing 25 or 70V paging system, the
following equipment will be required:
•
Appropriate one-way speaker assembly
•
Valcom power supply sized to provide power to
operate the amplified speaker assemblies
•
25 or 70V line transformer tapped at 1/4 watt
with an 8 ohm output
•

Special Applications
The Tip and Ring input of the amplified speaker may
be connected directly to the speaker in most
electronic key telephones to amplify the level of the
speaker. A power supply is also required.
Speaker Cabling
All Valcom amplified one-way interior speakers
require 2 pairs to operate. Standard telephone station
cable may be used. Existing telephone wire and
feeder cables may also be used. Refer to the
following tables when planning an installation.
•
Audio Pair: The number of speakers looped on
the audio pair is not critical unless you have a
very large job. Table 1 gives guidelines for the

Coverage
The area covered by Valcom Recessed Ceiling
Speakers is determined by the height of the ceiling. If
the ceiling height is 8', the speaker will cover 250 sq.
ft. If the ceiling is 20 feet high, the speaker will
cover 1000 sq. ft.
