Outdoor-ready sound projector

Issue 2/3 2023 Products & Solutions

Axis Communications introduced a smart, easy-to-integrate speaker, raising the bar for voice messages in both outdoor and indoor environments. With a minimalistic appearance and excellent sound, it’s ideal for broadcasting live and pre-recorded security and deterrence messages, health and safety instructions, and informational updates, and even background music.

AXIS C1610-VE Network Sound Projector is an alternative to the horn speaker wherever appearance or accessible placement is a key consideration. Thanks to a more natural sound quality, crucial messages are always clear and understandable.

The IK10-rated vandal-resistant speaker comes with embedded audio management software for scheduling, zoning, and prioritisation. It’s built on open standards for easy integration with VoIP telephony, video management systems and analytics. The sound projector connects to your standard network for a flexible, scalable, and cost-effective solution. It’s also packed with smart features. I/O ports enable integration with systems and devices including PIR sensors, buttons, strobe lights, and more. Additionally, a built-in microphone supports two-way audio communication. Remote health testing assures users their system is working, and the built-in LED offers a visual status confirmation.

Key features

• Sleek, vandal-resistant design

• All-in-one, outdoor-ready speaker system

• Connects to standard network

• Simple installation with PoE

• Remote health testing

• Easy to install and suited for temperatures ranging from -40 to +55°C, it can be mounted on walls, ceilings, or poles wherever appearance matters as much as sound quality.
