Sound reinforcement applications
demand loudspeakers with high
acoustic output and controlled dispersion. The JBL Model 2402H ultra-high
frequency transducer is engineered to
meet these demands, providing tight
pattern control, deep penetration,
and extremely high on-axis sensitivity.
The high end of the audio spectrum
is reproduced with incredible clarity
and crispness – all the realism a
performer could desire.
Frequency response extends
smoothly from 2.5 kHz to 15 kHz.
A circular exponential horn assembly
provides a dispersion pattern that is
40° conical at 10 kHz. For a given
power input, the 2402H produces
an exceptionally high acoustic output,
converting a 10 W input into a sound
pressure level of 100 dB at a distance
of 10 m (33 ft). Such efficiency allows
the 2402H to re-create intense high
frequency onsets and transients with
outstanding clarity and accuracy.
The 2402H utilizes an anisotropic
strontium ferrite magnet, manufactured using a wet-pressed forming
process. The benefits of this technology are better temperature stability,
resistance to demagnetization, reduction in weight over typical ferrite
material, and the highest performance
on an actual production basis. A flux
density of 1.75 T (17,500 gauss) in
the voice coil gap is realized.

Continuous program is defined as 3 dB greater than continuous pink noise and is a conservative expression of the
transducer’s ability to handle normal speech and music program material. Continuous pink noise power ratings are tested
with pink noise input having a 6 dB crest factor, with a high-pass filter set at the specified lower limiting frequency for
two hours duration.

䉴 2202H Ultra-High Frequency Transducer
The circular exponential horn assembly is die cast of
solid aluminum. Internally, the annular diaphragm is
pneumatically formed of fatigue-resistant aluminum alloy.
Wire used in the 44 mm (1¾ in) voice coil is aluminum,
milled to a thin ribbon. This process places a maximum
amount of conductor in the magnetic gap for optimum
efficiency and transient response.
The use of high-temperature voice-coil former materials
and adhesives has improved the power handling and ruggedness of the drivers.
Architectural Specifications:
The transducer shall have a measured sensitivity (SPL at 1 m with a
1 W input swept from 5 kHz – 20 kHz) of at least 110 dB on axis. Onaxis frequency response measured under free-field conditions at a
distance of 1.8 m (6 ft) or more shall extend from 3 kHz to 15 kHz,
within plus or minus 3 dB. Dispersion shall be 40° conical at 10 kHz,
when measured at 6 dB down points relative to on-axis frequency
response charactistics using ⅓-octave band pink noise as the signal
source.
Nominal impedance shall be 8 ⍀ and the power capacity shall be at
least 20 W when driven by pink noise, band-limited from 6 kHz to
20 kHz.
The transducer shall have a maximum diameter of 121 mm (4¾ in),
a depth of 98 mm (3⅞ in) and weigh not less than 2.3 kg (5 lb).
The exponential horn shall be die cast of aluminum and the magnetic circuit shall weigh not less than 1.9 kg (4⅛ lb).
Voice coil diameter shall be 44 mm (1¾ in) operating in a magnetic
field whose flux density measures at least 1.75 T (17,500 gauss). Voice
coil wire shall be milled aluminum ribbon.
The transducer shall be JBL Model 2402H.
JBL continually engages in research related to produce improvement. New materials, production methods, and design refinements are introduced into existing products without
notice as a routine expression of that philosophy. For this reason, any current JBL product
may differ in some respect from its published description, but will always equal or exceed
the original design specifications unless otherwise stated.

Beamwidth vs. Frequency
Polar response of the 2402H in the horizontal plane, measured with
⅓-octave band pink noise in a free-field environment. The curves
were traced by an automatic recorder. Power fed to the 2402H was
adjusted to provide the same 0 dB reference for each curve.
