Paging Technology for Telephone/Datacom
Designing a System
Is Easy As 1-2-3
Page Controls are the "Brain" of the system, much like the
CPU (Central Processing Unit) of a computer system and
are specifically designed for telephone system integration.
Systems are easily field expandable and/or upgradable to
allow for future adds, moves and changes.
Speakers are generally used for interior environments
and provide high quality music and voice reproduction.
It’s easy to use hundreds of one-way speakers in a zone.
Horn Speakers offer high-efficiency, rugged construction
and superb voice quality. They're typically used
outdoors or in loud, industrial or harsh interior
areas. It’s easy to use hundreds
of one-way speakers
in a zone.
Built-in power is often included in the Page Control, so an
additional Power Supply may not be needed. The amount
of power required for a paging system is based on the quan-
tity and type of Page Control and Speakers/Horns selected.

Valcom’s Distributed Amplified Technology was designed specifically for the
telephone/datacom world! Each one-way paging speaker provides a built-in
amplifier and volume control. These speakers are essentially independent
public address systems that can be networked together in a building block
concept that allows easy system configuration and flexible modification
as customer needs change.
Best of all, these speakers are networked together using standard
telephone/datacom low voltage wiring (CAT 5/6). This technology
allows customers to take advantage of in-place wiring and assures
the value of new wiring which can be used for future generations
of paging, telephone and datacom systems. Traditional 70 volt systems
MUST use shielded wiring to prevent serious consequences from high voltage,
high frequency signals radiating into datacom and telephone circuits.
Valcom offers significantly higher system efficiency and superior response
by optimizing each amplifier/speaker combination. Utilizing high efficiency
American made speaker components eliminates transformer power losses
characteristic of 70 volt systems. The net result is a reduction in cost,
power dissipation and a dramatic increase in system efficiency
and reliability due to the inherent system redundancy.
What is a Zone?
A zone can be any area, any size that you determine. It's usually an area where
the same overhead pages would need to be heard.
Within a zone you can have as many different types of speakers as you want.
From basic overhead round ceiling speakers, to high-fidelity sound, to horns for
water-proof areas, to door entry speakers and many more.
