FEATURES

• Use with Berbee InformaCast® software, Cisco® POE networks & Cisco® IP Telephones to create extremely versatile paging and messaging systems

• Highly efficient 10oz dual cone loudspeaker system provides 94dB average SPL @ 1W/1M and is capable of 103dB @ 1 meter via the rated power of the internal IP addressable amplifier

• 105˚ dispersion in the 2kHz octave band (-6dB)

• Wide frequency response of 86Hz to 8kHz (-3dB) is perfect for speech and general messaging playback

• Network controlled, high visibility red LED clock

APPLICATIONS

The perfect choice for education, military/government and large scale corporate applications, Berbee’s InformaCast IP Broadcasting Solution revolutionizes communication, clock/bell and message playback functionality. It provides the capability to simultaneously send a multicast audio stream and text messages to any combination of Cisco IP phones, Atlas Sound IP speakers, and PCs. With the push of a single button on the phone or a single click from a PC, a user can send a live, recorded or scheduled broadcast to one or more paging groups. With InformaCast compliant loudspeaker products from Atlas Sound, system designers and integrators will have the ability to deploy extremely large scale and complex paging systems over new or existing Cisco networks with the convenience of centralized administration by IT personnel.

Extreme cost savings can also be realized from the elimination of separate "stand alone" paging & clock/bell systems when InformaCast is utilized in education applications in conjunction with the model I8SC clock speaker baffle system.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Model I8SC from Atlas Sound consists of a factory assembled loudspeaker/ baffle/digital clock with PCB amp/control board securely mounted to the rear of the baffle via concealed weld studs. The amp/control board is capable of producing 9 Watts RMS into the 8 Ohm loudspeaker with 9VDC minimum power provided by Cisco IEEE 802.3AF compliant POE switches, (local 12-18VDC PSU’s may also be used instead of POE switches). Interconnect is via a board mounted female RJ-45 connector. The clock display is a brilliant red 5 element device capable of creating 2.75" (70mm) high x 1.25" (32mm) wide clock numbers. The industry standard C10A loudspeaker used in the I8SC is a dual cone 8" (205mm) loudspeaker with a 10oz (260g) ceramic magnet. It includes a curve-linear paper cone for lower harmonic distortion. The loudspeaker is also equipped with a full 1" (25mm) diameter copper voice coil with aluminum former for better heat dissipation. The 18 gauge construction of the metal baffle provides security and durability in commercial applications. A perforated 22 gauge metal screen is provided over the loudspeaker to maximize performance by allowing the optimum percentage of open area forward of the loudspeaker. The baffle is finished in neutral white electrostatic powder coat and is packaged with all necessary mounting screws.

ENCLOSURE IS NOT INCLUDED. Available optional enclosures:
