through which you can probe the inside of
the ceiling. Use a drywall saw and make the
first cut at a 45° angle toward the center of
the hole so you can put the cut piece back
in if the location is unsuitable. If you find
no obstructions, you can make the final cut
along the marked lines.
Loosen the screws on the three mounting
latches on the 4435A enclosure a few turns
to allow the latches to turn (see Fig.3).
Connect the cables (see chapter "Cabling")
and a safety wire if one is used.
Lift the 4435A enclosure into the hole
and turn the screws clockwise so that
the mounting latches rotate outwards.

Continue tightening the screws until the
sheetrock is firmly clamped between the
mounting latches and the enclosure flange.
If necessary, a secondary safety wire can be
attached to a tab on the top of the enclosure.
Cabling
To get started, connect an Ethernet cable
from the PoE+ output in an IP switch to
the 4435A Ethernet port. Use at least CAT5
cable or better. The loudspeaker powers up
automatically. If the balanced audio input
is used, connect it before powering up the
speaker. The pin sequence is shown in
Figure 9. When the balanced line input is

To create a working system, you will need
the following:
• An IP switch with a PoE+ (802.3at) output
for the 4435A loudspeaker or an IP switch
with no PoE support and a PoE+ power
injector
• CAT 5 or higher category Ethernet cable
with RJ45 connectors
• AES67 or Dante audio-over-IP stream
source
• For 4435A setup and configuration,
