Armadillo Speakers
Form follows function in the A-Series,
a.k.a., the “armadillo” line. Its unique
rounded ends and side corrugations,
which give the speakers their characteristic
“armadillo” shell look, are constructed of
mineral-filled polypropylene. This dense
molded material creates an extremely
durable cabinet with excellent acoustic
properties. Cabinet and components
are impervious to salt spray and dust.
Tough, Through and Through
The A-Series is made of premium material
components: die cast aluminum frames,
hard anodized aluminum cones,
anodized aluminum voice coil formers,
compound rubber cone surrounds, high-
temperature adhesives, UV-inhibited
mineral-filled polypropylene enclosure,
powder-coated aluminum, perforated PVC
plastic grilles, threaded brass inserts, and
gold-plated connectors. These are the most
durable materials used in any speaker
in the industry!
A-Series Loudspeakers set the standard for smooth, accurate sound, attractive appearance,
constant and reliable high performance, and rugged construction. Metal Diaphragm Tech-
nology (MDT) ensures speaker cone stability in all environmental conditions. Magnetic
Liquid Suspension (MLS) is a Ferrofuild seal around the magnet gap and voice coil that
provides protection from moisture and corrosion, as well as perfect voice coil alignment.

High-Fidelity Ceiling Subwoofer
CSUB
The Bogen CSUB Ceiling Subwoofer delivers outstanding bass response
in both suspended ceiling and hard-surfaced installations. The CSUB can
provide deep, rich bass response to any speaker system. Perfect accompa-
niments to the CSUB are the HFSF1, HFCS1/LP, and OCS1 ceiling loudspeakers.
The CSUB offers six levels of power output settings plus an 8-ohm position
controlled via a front-mounted, rotary tap selector switch (under grille). The low-
distortion speaker design, coupled with a computer-matched venting system,
delivers exceptional low-frequency response for music. The mechanical CSUB
design features four swing-out mounting clamps that eliminate the need for
a separate tile bridge when used in suspended ceiling applications.
High-Fidelity Ceiling Speaker
HFSF1
The Bogen HFSF1 High-Fidelity, Small-Footprint Ceiling Loudspeaker delivers
superior sound in a very compact enclosure. The speaker is unobtrusive at only
7-1/4" in diameter, and mounts easily in all types of ceilings including existing
hard-surface types and suspended ceilings.
The low-distortion, coaxial-design speaker, coupled with a computer-matched venting
system, delivers superb fidelity for music as well as high intelligibility for voice reinforce-
ment. Coupled with the Bogen CSUB Ceiling Subwoofer, it provides the perfect solution for
environments that require the highest-quality sound with minimal visual impact.

Bogen's Drop-In Ceiling Speakers are full-range loudspeakers that allow fast and simple installation, which saves time, effort, and
cost. Depending on whether your ceiling grid is 2' x 2' or 2' x 4', the speaker can be dropped directly into place or by simply making a
single cut to the ceiling tile, placing the tile support rail, and then inserting the speaker into position.

The MCD-Series Speakers offer installers a low-cost alternative to pre-assembled drop-in ceiling speakers. The speaker assembly
consists of the speaker module and a grille, which are easily assembled. The MCDMOD simply snaps securely onto a grille.
Since the module is not attached to the grille, it allows installers the option of making wire connections before or after grille
placement in the ceiling. The assemblies fit into 2’ x 2’ or 2’ x 4’ ceiling grids.

Special Protection
The SPT15A, SPT30A, BDT30A and
KFLDS30T use a cast aluminum end
bell specially designed to make them
weatherproof. A rotary selector
switch
is used to set the specific
power tap for
the speaker. This switch’s entry into the
end bell is sealed by a special mount-
ing nut with an integral O-ring. A re-
movable plastic panel protects both
the rotary switch and the electrical
connections. This panel provides a
narrow opening for the speaker wires
to exit, reducing the chance of water
infiltration.
Tilt & Swivel Base
Bogen’s 15- and 30-watt horns include
a unique and easy-to-use tilt and
swivel mounting base that provides
nearly 180 degrees of tilt and a full 360
degrees of swivel. A single wing nut
locks in the angle of the speaker. Loos-
ening the wing nut frees the speaker
in each rotational axis, making it fast
and easy to precisely aim the speakers
where the sound is needed. The base
provides three holes for screw mount-
ing and a slot to allow strapping the
speakers to beams. The
actual mount-
ing base can easily
be removed so that
the base can be installed separately.
The speakers can then be attached to
the bases at a later time.

Extreme Human Environments
It takes a specially-engineered speaker to
stand up to the extreme abuse of human
beings. The VRS-Series has been in-
stalled in some of the most demanding
applications, from high-crime area door-
answer systems to some of the most no-
torious correctional facilities.
What Tough Is (Exploded View)
The VRS-Series features an 11-gauge
stainless steel faceplate (#1). That’s a solid
1/8
"
of the hardest steel around.
Behind that, there’s a heavy-duty steel
barrier (#2) which is designed to let sound
out and nothing in. The barrier is baffled
so that knives, nails, paper clips, and any-
thing else that might fit into the grille
openings will not enter the speaker
nor
make contact with the speaker’s cone.
Then for further protection, a finely per-
forated metal grille (#3) covers the entire
speaker to intercept any object that might
snake its way through the baffles of the
steel barrier.
The VRS-Series not only keeps objects
out, but fluids also cannot damage the
speaker because the speaker’s cone is
made of weather-resistant plastic (#4).
Bypass Feature
In certain rooms such as training or con-
ference rooms where meetings or presen-
tations are held, paging announcements
are considered interruptions. To avoid or
eliminate such interruptions, speakers in-
stalled in these rooms may use attenuators
to set speaker volume low or off. In these
cases, emergency messages would not be
heard by individuals in these rooms.
To ensure critical messages are heard, the
ATP-Series Attenuators include a Bypass
Function that sets emergency messages to
full volume - to all speakers the attenuator
controls - even if the speakers’volume con-
trol knobs are set low or off.A trip voltage of
between 9V and 30V DC causes the attenu-
ator to bypass the volume control function
and provides full volume audio to the
speakers. This is a critical and ideal func-
tion in emergency situations when a mes-
sage must be sent to all individuals in a
building.
AT10A, AT35A

Product Features:
Adjusts loudspeaker output levels on 25V & 70V systems

Mounts in standard electrical box; single (AT10A, ATP10)

Simple connections
Both Attenuator Series (AT and ATP) allow the output
level of a group of loudspeakers to
be set from a wall-
mounted volume control,
without affecting overall
amplifier volume settings. The ATP-Series also has a
priority bypass function which overrides the volume
control knob to provide full volume audio to the speakers.

EASY DESIGNTM
Determine the ambient noise
level and type of environment
in which the speakers will be
installed.
Then select the speaker(s)
best suited for the area.
Example:
The ambient noise level in a
machine shop in an industrial
area is 90 dB. By referring to
the chart, you will find that the
HS30EZ horn loudspeaker is
best suited for this environ-
ment.
What is Easy Design?
Armed with just 3 pieces of information, you can quickly create a
bill of material for speaker paging jobs. Bogen’s Easy Design line
of products was created specifically to make the design process
easier and less time consuming for the installer.
You supply some basic pieces of information – type of application,
dimensions of the area to be covered, ambient noise level, and
ceiling height*. Then, a few simple and direct charts will imme-
diately provide you with the best type of speaker to use, the number
of speakers needed, and the amplifier power required for the job.
Each speaker in the Easy Design line is designed with a single
power tap and a volume control. Any paging system you create
using the Easy Design products will be flexible, robust, and powerful.
If noise levels increase in the future, just turn up the volume con-
trols on the speakers – the amplifier will not overload!
You get all the benefits of a 70V central-amplified system – full
power capability, high-quality sound and performance,
2-wire installation, long speaker runs, flexibility in amplifier
location, no distributed power supplies – and now, super simple
system design (we’ve eliminated the multiple power taps).Easy
Design speakers have the high quality and reliability you expect
from Bogen.

Obtain the length, width, and ceiling
height of the area.
Look up where the length and width of the
area meet on the chart.
You will find three color-coded numbers. Use the
RED number for 8 ft. ceilings, BLUE for 10 ft. ceilings,
and GREEN for 12 ft. ceilings. The color-coded number
that corresponds to the area’s ceiling height is the
general number of speakers the installation requires.
The minimum amplifier power needed (in watts) is equal to the
total number of CS1EZ or SM1EZ speakers required in the area for
uniform coverage.
Amplifier Power (min.) = Number of CS1EZ or SM1EZ Speakers
Example:
An office area, using CS1EZ Ceiling Speakers (or SM1EZ Surface-Mount Ceiling
Speakers), is 100 feet long by 70 feet wide by 10 feet high. Crisscross the
length (100 feet) and width (70 feet) on the chart. You will find three color-
coded numbers: 27, 18, and 12. Since blue numbers are used for ceiling
heights of 10 feet, 18 is the recommended quantity of CS1EZ speakers
needed for this application. This number (18) is also the minimum
amplifier power needed (in watts) for this area.

Example:
A factory has 35,000 square feet of open area and an
average ambient noise level of 80 dB. Thus, it will require
HS15EZ Horn Loudspeakers. Using the chart for the
HS15EZ speaker, crisscross the square footage and the
ambient noise level. The number of horn loudspeakers
needed for an installation is shown in BLUE and the
minimum amplifier power for this number of speakers is
shown in RED. As you can see, 6 speakers are needed for
this application and the minimum amplifier power
needed is 90 watts.

Mixed Speaker
Type Applications
For applications with more than one type of speaker:
Determine the number of speakers and the minimum amplifier power needed for each
type of speaker separately.
Add together the minimum amplifier power needed for each type of speaker to obtain
the minimum amplifier power needed for the entire application.
Example:
An application requires 10 SM1EZ Surface-Mount Ceiling Speakers (minimum amplifier power needed
is 10 watts), 5 HS15EZ Horn Loudspeakers (minimum amplifier power needed is 75 watts), and 10 WB1EZ
Wall Baffle Speakers (minimum amplifier power needed is 10 watts). Add together the minimum
amplifier power needed for each type of speaker: 10 watts + 75 watts + 10 watts. The sum is 95 watts.
This is the minimum amplifier power needed (in watts) for the entire application.
Use this chart to determine the number of WB1EZ speakers a particular installation
will require, based on the dimensions of the area.

Determine the Number
of Speakers Needed (cont.)
Example:
An area’s dimensions are 150 ft. long by 110 ft. wide. Crisscross these
two dimensions on the chart and you will find that 28 WB1EZ Wall Baffle
Speakers are needed for this application. This number (28) is also the

EASY DESIGNTM
Once you determine the number of speakers and the minimum
amplifier power for the installation, you are ready to select the
system amplifier. A 70V paging amplifier is very easy to select.
Locate amplifiers on the chart on page 78 that have a wattage
equal to or higher than the minimum amplifier power of your
application. (Amplifiers with power capacities greater than this
number will not damage the speakers. The extra power available
is simply not used.)
Determine the amplifier features needed for the application
(see the Site Survey Check List on page 72 and the Amplifier
Features Chart on page 78).
Using the chart on page 78, find an amplifier that offers these
features. As long as the wattage of the selected amplifier is
equal to or higher than the minimum amplifier power, the
amplifier will work well for the application.
If you think the application’s system may need to expand in the future
(this is often the case with new constructions and relocating com-
panies), you may want to select an amplifier with a greater power
capacity now.
Example:
An application requiring 18 CS1EZ Ceiling Speakers requires
a minimum amplifier power of 18 watts, so an amplifier with a
power rating of 18 watts minimum is needed. Now, look at the chart
on page 78 to determine which amplifiers provide the necessary
wattage to drive the speakers as well as provide the amplifier
features that are most appropriate for the installation. Since the
minimum wattage needed is 18, the amplifier with the lowest power
usable for this installation is 20 watts (model C20). However, if the
C20 does not have the features required for the application, such
as bass and treble controls, you can select any amplifier of
greater wattage that offers the specific features. For instance, you
might select the TPU35B or C35. Both of these amplifiers have a
higher wattage than the application’s minimum amplifier power
needed and provide the desired features because they have bass
and treble controls. Either of these amplifiers will work well for
this application. Plus, there is room to expand the system on a 35W
or higher amplifier without the need to purchase an additional
amplifier in the future.

Using digital switching amplifier technology, these Self-Amplified Horn Loudspeakers
provide unprecedented low DC current draw and heat dissipation, allowing them to
use fewer power supplies, run on longer cable runs, and work at higher ambient
temperatures than conventional analog self-amplified horn speakers. The shape of the
horn’s flare provides a controlled dispersion of sound for better intelligibility. The horn
can be rotated on its axis, offering wide dispersion patterns, vertically or horizontally,
depending on its position. In addition, these weatherproof, plastic horns are extremely
durable and rugged. They can be used in any environment, indoors or outdoors,
without affecting sound quality.

SELF-AMPLIFIED HORN SPEAKERS
Controlled Dispersion
Many horns in the market disperse sound frequencies in a wild and
uncontrolled manner. This reduces intelligibility and causes
inconsistent sound quality over the horn’s coverage angle. Bogen’s
SAH horns benefit from Bogen’s long history as a commercial and
pro audio company. Bogen’s SAH horns disperse the various
frequencies that make up the sound of a page in a very carefully
controlled manner. This means that the listener hears clean, crisp
intelligible pages over the full coverage area of the horn.

SELF-AMPLIFIED SYSTEMS
The SAH self-amplified horn speaker’s amplifier, by virtue of its
high-efficiency digital switching technology, produces very
little wasted heat. Lower amplifier operating temperatures
mean these horns can work harder in higher temperature
environments than conventional analog self-amplified horns.
Lower operating temperatures also mean less stress on critical
internal components and better reliability. Continuous back-
ground music is no sweat for these cool-running horns.
Thermally Rugged
Lower Currents = Lower Voltage Drops
Bogen’s SAH self-amplified horn speakers consume significantly
less current than equivalently sized conventional analog self-
amplified horns. Lower current draw means less voltage drop,
and longer cable runs than those allowed by conventional
analog self-amplified horns. This allows more flexibility as to
where you mount your power supplies and how many individual
power supplies need to be installed.

1. Choose the level of ambient noise in the area to be covered.
2. Locate the area's square footage.
3. Where these two measurements meet are two numbers. The number in GREEN is the number of speakers required.
The number in RED is the number of Current Units (CU) needed for that many speakers. (You may need to increase
the number of speakers in areas where large objects or shelving project into the coverage area, blocking sound.)

Bypass Feature
Local volume controls allow people
working in an area to control the level
of paging and background music for
their needs. However, in paging sys-
tems where alert announcements are
made as well as general announce-
ments, local volume controls can be a
problem. When users set volume con-
trols for very low levels or off, the alert
announcements may not be heard.
When the BUFEX’s Bypass feature
is activated (by an external contact clo-
sure), it overrides the local level setting
of the BUFEX and allows important
messages to be heard.
In certain circumstances, full level
audio messages may be overpowering.
The BUFEX includes a Bypass Trim that
allows a maximum 12 dB of attenuation
to the alert message when the local
level is set to 0. As the local level is in-
creased, the Bypass Trim will track this
and increase the alert message level
proportionally.

connecting to 100V, 70V, and 25V speaker systems.
To address the needs of emergency announcements,
the BUFEX has a Bypass feature that allows emergency
announcements to be heard at high levels regardless
of the volume setting on the BUFEX. The BUFEX contains
a Bypass Trim feature that allows some adjustment to
the Bypass level.

Switch-Mode Power Supplies
The SPS versions of power supplies
use switching technology to provide
large current capacities in very small
packages. Unlike more conventional
linear power supplies that use large
and heavy transformers, switching
supplies gate energy directly to the
storage caps at the power supply out-
put. This is a highly efficient way to
convert voltages and because of this
the power supplies generate very little
heat.
Mounting Holsters
Most wall-mounted SPS versions of
power supplies come with special
mounting holsters for easy and secure
wall mounting. The holsters are fas-
tened to the wall and then the power
supply is slipped in. A broad spring
tang ensures the power supply remains
snug in the holster. A side-mounted
PCB provides a means of breaking out
the power supply’s cable connector into
multiple screw terminals. The screw ter-
minals are also pluggable for added
ease of installation.

UTI1 shown with optional
rack mount / security cover kit
Programmable AUX Relay
The UTI1 provides a way for in-
stallers to decide how the AUX
relay contacts will trip based on
which inputs on the UTI1 are ac-
tive. The UTI1 has 4 inputs:
override, tone trigger, paging,
and night ring. The installer can
program the AUX relay to re-
spond to one or any combination
of these inputs. The UTI1 priori-
tizes these inputs (in the order
shown above) so that higher pri-
ority inputs preempt lower ones,
but the AUX relay contacts can be
programmed to work independ-
ently of this hierarchy.
For example, the AUX relay could
be programmed to respond only
to a night ring trigger independent
of anything else the UTI1 was
doing. The UTI1 would suppress
the night ring tone if a general
page were made; however with
the AUX relay programmed this
way, the AUX relay contacts
would remain active until the
night ring input stopped regard-
less of the other UTI1 inputs.
The AUX relay contacts can also
be programmed to operate after
the triggering event has finished.
In this case, the AUX relay contact
activates for 1 second and then
stops. This type of operation allows
external equipment to be triggered
after an event has occurred.
All this selectable functionality
allows the installer improved
ways to control external equip-
ment in conjunction with the
UTI1 operation. Programming is
accomplished through simple
DTMF programming codes.

Bogen’s UTI1 is a single-zone telephone interface that is compatible with all standard analog
port types. A background music (BGM) input with variable muting coordinates music and
page announcements. An additional audio output provides a “page only” function
(no BGM) for application flexibility. A built-in 24V DC, 1A power supply is provided for pow-
ering amplified speakers. Paging volume controls are provided for each of the outputs. An out-
put limiter function, with limiter active indicator, provides consistent page volume regardless
of loud or soft paging announcements. Contact-triggered tones and night ring signals, as
well as programmable AUX relay contacts, are all programmed using DTMF tones through the
dual-purpose override input. Plug-in terminal strips provide for easy installation. An optional
security cover/rack mount kit (RPKUTI1) is available.

Override Zone Group
The override input on the UTI312 has
the highest priority of all the inputs
but does not have to provide an All-
Call function. Since the override has a
zone group associated with it, the
installer can determine which zones
receive pages during an override.
For example, assume that in a 12-zone
system 11 zones are used to provide
audio to different parts of a building, but
one zone is not used for audio purposes.
The contact closure for this zone is used
to control a door latch. When this zone
is active, the latch is open. If the override
was predefined to activate all zones,
then the door latch would open during
override operation which may not be
desirable. By programming the override
zone group with all zones except the one
connected to the door latch, an override
can be made and the door will remain
locked.
Two Background Music Inputs
In a system with multiple zones, it is not
uncommon to find applications that
have different background music (BGM)
requirements in different zones. To
provide flexibility in these situations, the
UTI312 has 2 BGM inputs. Each zone,
through jumper assignments on the ZX3
module, can select one or the other BGM
source, or none at all.
Auto Select Paging
When using the auto select paging fea-
ture, there is no need to dial a zone or
zone group. Whenever the paging input
becomes active, the auto select paging
zone group, with user-assigned zones,
will determine what zones are active.
This may seem to be an unusual function
for a multi-zone paging application.
However, often the need for zoning is
determined not by voice paging needs,
but by the need to play tones in differ-
ent zones.
In these instances, a shift change tone
may need to be produced in the factory
areas but not in the office areas. So a
tone trigger zone group will be set up to
channel the tone just into the factory. In
this case, voice paging is done like an
All-Call, but the tones are zoned.
ZX3
3-Zone Plug-In
Expansion Module
(one included
with UTI312)
Bogen’s UTI312 is a multi-zone paging controller with universal telephone interface.
It is expandable from 3 to 12 zones in 3-zone increments using ZX3 expansion modules.
Each zone has its own buffered paging output (150 speaker drive capacity) with volume con-
trol, a C-form relay contact and “zone active” indicator. Each module includes a pluggable
24V DC power distribution terminal strip and pluggable terminal strips for each zone for
easy wiring. A built-in 24V DC, 1A power supply is provided for powering amplified speakers.
The UTI312’s universal telephone interface is identical to the UTI1 (page 31). Two back-
ground music (BGM) inputs, with volume controls, provide each zone with a choice of BGM
sources or no BGM. Two tone triggers are available as well as a 90V night ringer input.
Separate volume controls for the night ring and tone triggers, along with an adjustable
page level limiter, make it easy to set appropriate levels.
Powerful software features provide the UTI312 enormous flexibility for demanding appli-
cations. 2-, 3-, 4-, or 5-digit dialing plans allow the UTI312 to fit into any dialing structure.
Twenty-four zone groups, zone groups for each tone input and night ring as well as a zone
group for the override input, provide plenty of installer flexibility. A programmable AUX
relay contact, in addition to the zone relay contact, provides flexibility for controlling external
equipment based on the UTI312’s activity.

Zone Groups
One unique feature of the ZPM3 is its
ability to group together a number of
zones and page in to them at the same
time. However, the people you are trying
to contact may spend their time in more
than one zone area. By grouping zones,
you increase your chance of contacting
that person.
An example of a typical 3-zone facility is a
medium size location with an office area,
manufacturing area, and warehouse. Each
area is set up as an individual zone.
By grouping two zones and paging simul-
taneously into both, the chances of the page
being heard by the specific individual are
greatly improved.
For this same facility, the ZPM3 can also
produce a tone that will be heard only in
a specific group of areas. An external
contact closure from a master clock is
typically used to trigger the tones.

Signal-Processing Modules
When signal-processing output modules are
installed into the Power Vector's last
two module bays, they automatically insert
themselves into the mix bus signal path lead-
ing to the power amplifier stage. When two of
these output modules are installed, their ef-
fects are cascaded with the second to last
bay's module, processing the signal first and
then passing it to the module in the last bay.
Two benefits are gained by this innovation: (1)
the effects insert jacks are still available for
use by external processing equipment, (2) the
signal-processing output modules act on the
raw mix bus signal before any other user con-
trols, like master volume, bass, and treble.
This then ensures that signal level dependent
processors, such as the CMP1R Compressor/
Limiter and the ANS1R Ambient
Noise
Sensor modules, perform as intended
regard-
less of front panel master control changes.
Remote Volume Control
The master volume control is motorized.
By using a motor to physically move the con-
trol knob, a new level of remote control
adjustability is achieved.
Regardless of where the master volume con-
trol is set on the amplifier, the remote can
move it up or down. Since the remote control
signal is now the drive signal to the motor,
noise on the remote control leads cannot mix
in with the amplifier signals. This gives the
Power Vector a fully functional and clean way
of remotely controlling overall system level.
Traditionally, remote volume control was ac-
complished by having the remote control
vary an analog control signal to an opto-
resistor in the amplifier. This opto-resistor
would further attenuate the signal level in the
amplifier, based on the remote control setting.
This approach has two drawbacks: (1) the
maximum volume that can be achieved by
changing the remote control was limited by
the master volume control setting on the
amplifier, or vice-versa depending on how
the amplifier was designed, the remote
could lower volume, but could not further in-
crease it; (2) the control signal, because it is
analog, is vulnerable to noise. If a 60 Hz
hum was picked up by the long remote
volume leads, it could cause the opto-
resistor to modulate the volume level at the
hum frequency.

Dual Band EQ
The unique dual-function equalizer can be
used for acoustic shaping or for feedback
control.
Acoustic Shaping - Full range equaliza-
tion is provided for correcting general fre-
quency response issues that exist in the
application venue. The full audio spectrum
is covered on 1-octave centers with a
boost/cut of 12 dB. In this mode, the equal-
izer can be used to compensate for room
acoustics, or to satisfy the listening prefer-
ence of the user.
Feedback Control - In this mode, the
equalizer’s control range is reduced to cover
only the lower half of the audio spectrum
(where feedback howls occur), but the indi-
vidual filters are now on closer 2/3-octave
spacing. This allows narrower bands of fre-
quencies to be controlled, which is particu-
larly useful to reduce feedback of live
sources that can increase the effective loud-
ness the system can achieve.
Variable Music Mute
This feature allows control over the level of
background music (fed though the AUX
inputs) heard during a telephone page
announcement. The convention used to be to
completely mute background music during
pages. The Gold Seal Series amplifiers pro-
vide full muting as well as no muting and in-
termediate attenuation levels of –10 dB and
–21 dB. After the telephone page has ended,
the background music smoothly fades back
to its original level for a very professional
sound.
Telephone Paging Control
Input 5 serves a dual function as either a
balanced MIC input or a 600-ohm balanced
telephone input. The TEL input includes
both voice-activated triggering for muting
the AUX inputs and automatic level control
for providing constant paging level. ALC
compensates for different voice levels and
speaking styles of the individuals using the
system. Controls are provided on the rear of
the amplifier to adjust trigger threshold of
the voice-activated muting so that it will not
falsely trigger from noise on the input. An
ALC adjustment is also provided to allow
control over the amount of compression ap-
plied to loud signals to keep them at a nom-
inal signal level.
Audio Enhancement
Crisp, clean, intelligible sound is the goal of
every paging system. The audio enhance-
ment circuit adds back the high frequency
harmonics that are lost through the hand-
sets and speakers. With one simple control,
you can adjust the amount of high fre-
quency content the audio enhancement
circuit adds back until optimum intelligibil-
ity is reached.

Specialized Telephone Input
The TPU-Series’ 600-ohm transformer bal-
anced input is perfectly suited to connect to
paging ports and paging adapters such as
Bogen’s TAMB2. Here are a few specially
designed features:
The background music will mute when-
ever paging activity is present on the
telephone input, even if control contacts
are not available. (Separate mute control
contacts are also available.)
To avoid problems with noise on the lines
falsely muting the background music, a
built-in VOX threshold control (not on
TPU15A) lets you decide what’s a real
signal and what’s noise.
Because not everyone speaks at the same
level, the Automatic Level Control
feature keeps loud voices from booming
out of the paging system’s speakers.
Audio Enhancement
Crisp, clean, intelligible sound is the goal of
every paging system. The audio enhance-
ment circuit adds back the high frequency
harmonics that are lost through the hand-
sets and speakers. With one simple control,
you can adjust the amount of high fre-
quency content the audio enhancement cir-
cuit adds back until optimum intelligibility
is reached.
Variable Music Mute
Add some polish to announcements by
using the TPU’s built-in variable mute fea-
ture. Variable mute allows you to control the
level of the music heard in the background
during a page. It’s fully adjustable from no
muting of music to full suppression of
music. The TPU also gracefully fades the
muted music back in after the page is fin-
ished for a smooth, professional sound (not
available on TPU15A).
Bridging
Bridging two TPU amplifiers permits them
to be used in tandem with one another to
increase the total output power of the sys-
tem, thereby permitting additional speak-
ers to be added. For example, when two
250-watt amplifiers are bridged, the total
output capacity of the system is 500 watts.
Also, both amplifiers will receive the same
input signal, amplify it, and deliver it to the
speaker loads connected to each
amplifier (not available on TPU15A).

Modular Amplifier
The M-Class Series of amplifiers are mod-
ular amps that can accept up to two input
modules per unit. These modules offer a
cost effective and convenient way to add a
variety of features to a system. A balanced
line input module (BAL2S) is shipped with
each unit. See page 39.
Modes of Operation
Each model includes a 3-position switch
that can be set to one of three modes of
operation: Stereo mode, 70V Mono mode,
or Dual Mono mode.
• Stereo
In this mode, the amp supplies two inde-
pendent channels of low-impedance
amplification. These channels can be used
to supply left and right audio for stereo
installations of 2 separate zones of ampli-
fication with different audio programs.
• 70V Mono
In this mode, the amp supplies a single
channel of amplification. This mode also
mixes the signals from each input module
into a mono program. By assigning each
module to a different bus, a 2:1 mixer is
formed with the front-mounted level con-
trols adjusting the mix. In addition, one
module can be set to mute the other when
it is active, thereby providing an effective
paging system.
• Dual Mono
This mode is similar to the 70V Mono
mode except that in this mode the amp
supplies two channels of low-impedance
amplification. This mode still mixes the
input signal from the different modules
but a Channel Balance control is provided
to adjust the output levels of one channel
against the other.

Heavy-Duty Operation
The HTA line of amplifiers are designed to
be workhorses. Large heat sinks and huge
transformers allow these amplifiers to sup-
ply continuous, full (RMS) power to loads,
even at high ambient temperatures. The
HTA amplifiers are convection-cooled, so
they provide the ultimate in set-and-
forget operation.
More amazing than the heavy-duty capa-
bility of the HTA amplifiers is the quality of
the output. The frequency response will
remain within +/- 1 dB and have less than
0.5% distortion over the entire audio range
(20 Hz – 20 kHz). What is so special about
this? The output is transformer-coupled.
Few transformer-isolated amplifiers can
even come close to these specifications.
An enormous output transformer using
proprietary coil winding techniques is what
allows the HTA to reach this level of
performance.
A Power MOSFET output stage completes
the extremely reliable and durable per-
formance of these amplifiers. This type of
transistor does not suffer from many of the
failure modes of the more typical transis-
tors (bi-polar types). The result is an
amplifier that can operate reliably at full
power and supply transformer-isolated,
high-quality, full bandwidth (20 Hz –
20 kHz) audio.
HTA125A,
HTA250A
The HTA Series high-performance power amplifiers can safely drive loads continuously
at full (RMS) power. Overload protection includes an electronic shutdown circuit and
a thermal breaker.

What Does The Pro-Matrix Do?
The Pro-Matrix Amplifier is ideally suited
for restaurants and similar venues.
It provides 4 AUX and 2 MIC inputs that
can be distributed into 3 different zones.
The Pro-Matrix automatically switches the
different audio sources based on a preset,
user-programmed priority hierarchy. This
allows the correct audio to reach the correct
areas without any user intervention, mak-
ing operation ultra simple.
In addition to flexible priority assignment of
inputs, the Pro-Matrix has 10 different menus
that allow control of a host of system opera-
tions from applying phantom power to mics
to setting the muting level of music during

Flexible Output Levels
The VMIX was designed to make connec-
tions to other sound system components
as
easy as possible. Its transformer-
balanced output provides ground loop iso-
lation and high noise immunity when con-
nected to other balanced inputs of
downstream components. This output
can provide 3 distinct output voltage ranges
to accommodate just about any input type
from a microphone input at -50 dBµ to a
professional audio input requiring +4
dBµ, as well as a more common commer-
cial level of -10 dBµ. Setting the proper
output range is as easy as moving a slide
switch. The VMIX provides a separate un-
balanced RCA output, which makes sim-
ple equipment interconnects a snap.
Signal-Processing Modules
When signal-processing output modules are
installed into the Power Vector's last
two module bays, they automatically insert
themselves into the mix bus signal path lead-
ing to the output stage. When two of these
output modules are installed, their effects are
cascaded with the second to last bay's module
processing the signal first and then passing it
to the module in the last bay. Two benefits are
gained by this innovation: (1) the effects in-
sert jacks are still available for use by external
processing equipment, (2) the signal-pro-
cessing output modules act on the signal on
the raw mix bus signal before any other user
controls, like master volume, bass, and tre-
ble can affect it. This then ensures that sig-
nal level dependent processors, such as the
CMP1R Compressor/Limiter and the
ANS1R Ambient Noise Sensor modules,
perform as intended regardless of front
panel control changes.

MESSAGING & CALL STACKING SYSTEM
Pre-record Messages for Use in Emergencies
It is imperative that directives communicated
using a public announcement system during an
emergency are clear, concise, and worded so as to
not cause panic or confusion. It is difficult to imag-
ine all these criteria being met at the time an
emergency is occurring. The individual making
the announcement may themselves be shaken,
confused, or not sure what to say.
Directive Announcements
The BOMDMU allows up to 99 messages (up to 8
minutes total in length) to be recorded in advance.
These directives can include vacate the building,
secure your location in the building, relocate to a
particular area, etc. in cases of fire, an intruder,
storm, etc. Since the individual who is aware of
the emergency (and the appropriate message con-
tent that needs to be announced) is likely required
to attend to the emergency situation rather than
making announcements, it is best that such an-
nouncements be recorded in advance and played
by an authorized individual. Messages can also
be recorded in multiple languages.

VOICE-ACTIVATED RELAY
The VAR1 is a relay device that monitors audio activity over a wide range of input voltages
and operates two
sets of C-Form relay contacts in response to detected activity. The VAR1 can be used to detect voltages as low
as signals directly from a microphone or as high as signals from 70V speaker systems. A low-level
output of the
detected audio, transformer-isolated from the input, is also available for use with other equipment.
The VAR1 can
also be used as a balanced, low-impedance MIC pre-amp.

WMT1A,
WMT1AS
Models WMT1A and WMT1AS are general-purpose matching transformers that
allow proper connections between high (10k-ohm) and low (600-ohm) inputs and
outputs. Both models can be used to balance an unbalanced line or provide
isolation between two pieces of equipment. Both models can be configured to
produce a balanced, microphone level signal from a line-level signal such as that from
a pre-amp or music source. In addition, Model WMT1AS can adapt speaker level
signals (25V/70V systems) to a level suitable for the AUX input of an amplifier.
Connecting Amps to Other Equipment
When connecting amplifiers to other equip-
ment, these transformers are a “must have”
because they can solve a variety of problems.
Where signal levels are insufficient to
drive an amplifier's AUX input to full
volume, installing either model on the
input will increase the voltage to the input
by about 5 times, providing plenty of level.
Where input ground loops are causing a
hum problem, the isolation transformer on
either transformer can break the loop and
eliminate the hum.
When unbalanced signals need to be sent
over long distances, either model can
balance them at both the send and receive
sides and reduce the possibility of noise
pickup.
Both models allow a microphone input
to be used with an AUX-level signal input.
By moving a jumper, the attenuation is
changed on the high-impedance side to be
100 times less than the signal level on the
600-ohm side.
The WMT1AS model can also convert 25V
and 70V speaker levels down to the
levels appropriate for AUX inputs on
amplifiers.

Paging Input Details
The DRZ35 has a full-featured micro-
phone paging input. The microphone
input is a low-impedance balanced input
that works with dynamic or condenser
microphones. Whenever a page is made,
the AUX or Tuner feed is muted via a VOX
detector. When the page is completed,
the other source smoothly fades back in.
By using a WMT1A matching transformer,
the MIC input can be connected to the
paging port of a telephone system.
Speaker Zones
Built into the DRZ35 is a convenient
4-zone selector switch group. These
push-on/push-off switches allow you
to control how paging is distributed
throughout a facility. Simply turn on and
off groups of speakers as needs
change.
The DRZ35 is a unique, self-contained 4-zone music and paging system for small-
to medium-sized applications. It has a digital AM/FM tuner, as well as MIC, LINE,
and AUX inputs. It has 35 watts of output power, and is capable of driving 4-ohm,
25- or 70-volt speaker systems.
The DRZ35 permits connection of up to four switch-selectable paging zones.
It also features Bass and Treble controls and a Master Volume control with
a 5-segment LED output meter. The built-in tuner uses a PLL synthesizer to provide
accurate frequency selection.

Targeted Communication
The PI35A and SI35A allow background
music to play, without interruption, in se-
lected areas while one or more rooms
communicate directly with the main unit.
This feature is useful in a number of ap-
plications, including:
Schools: A live news broadcast can be
played over the system into all rooms. If
an administrator needs a student, the call
for the student can be placed directly into
the classroom the student is in, without
interrupting the live news broadcast to all
the other classrooms.
Medical Center: If a nurse at the main
desk needs to communicate immediately
with one of the physicians, the nurse can
call directly into the exam room where
the physician is without interrupting the
background music being played in all pa-
tient areas. This keeps the physician’s de-
mand and schedule private, so patients
do not become concerned about the
length of their wait before they get to see
the physician.
Connects To Existing Phone Systems
With the WMT1A Line-Matching Trans-
former, a connection can be made to the
page port from the phone system. This
allows an All-Call/Emergency notice to be
made using the in-house phone system.

Master the Basics of Paging System Technology
Understand the Benefits of both 70V and 24V Systems
70V Paging Systems
consist of:
• A Centralized Amplifier which offers a variety of
features
to enhance voice and music reproduction
as well as easy system expansion.
• Speakers that connect with a simple 2-wire installation
because the audio power is supplied from the central-
ized amplifier.
• An Interface Device that connects the paging system to
the telephone system. (Depending on the telephone
system
and amplifier, an interface device may not be
needed.)
The aim of a paging system is to deliver important audio
announcements, at the proper level and with sufficient
clarity, to people working in a facility and to make those
announcements easily understood. The two most common
ways to accomplish this are to use either 70V central-
ized amplifiers with passive speakers or self-amplified
speakers operating from a 24V DC power supply.
Pages 64-67 explain 70V systems and pages 68-69
explain self-amplified systems. Speaker layout, wiring
methods, and phasing are the same for either technology
and are covered on pages 70-76.

SYSTEM DESIGN GUIDE
PAGING SYSTEM TECHNOLOGY
WHAT IS A 70V SYSTEM?
WHY USE 70V OUTPUTS?
Low Currents Allow Long Runs
Why do distributed sound systems use centralized ampli-
fiers with 70V output signals? Because 70V systems can
handle extremely long lengths of wire to connect the
speakers to the amplifier, and they can power a large
number of speakers in each system.
When sending power signals over long distances, it is im-
portant to minimize the amount of current flowing in the
wire. High currents allow too much power, or electrical en-
ergy, to be wasted in wires in the form of heat.
The power (P) lost in the wire is related to the square of the
current (I), so reducing the current in the wires a little
reduces the power lost in them considerably. In fact, reduc-
ing the current flowing in a wire by a factor of 2 will reduce
the power loss by a factor of 4.
However, the power the load demands and the output level
of the amplifier determine the amount of current that must
flow in the speaker wires (Ohm’s law in action).
So to lower the amount of power lost in the wires, the
voltage that the amplifier uses to drive the load is
increased. By doing this, the current in the wires can be
reduced while still supplying the same power to the load
(for the same power P, any increase in V will lower I).
Of course you cannot just change the voltage driving a load
from one level to another without also making the load
compatible with the new voltage level. To ensure compati-
bility, 70V systems use transformers on the speakers that
change the high 70V amplifier output levels to lower levels
that are compatible with typical 8-ohm speakers.
Easy To Control Speaker Power Draw
The output of a central paging amplifier is designed to
limit the maximum output voltage that can be supplied to
the speakers. This maximum output voltage remains the
same regardless of the amplifier’s power capacity. Because
the output voltage is limited, speaker manufacturers can
design products that consume a specific amount of power
from the amplifier. This is beneficial in two ways.
First, the speakers will not consume more power than
they are designed for; so, they cannot blow out from using
an amplifier that’s too powerful. Second, since each speaker’s
power consumption is known, the correct amplifier power
for the paging system is simply the total power consumed
by all the speakers.
70V Output
A 70V output is available on Bogen amplifiers and is the
primary type of output for paging systems. A step-up
output transformer in the amplifier provides the high
70V output signal. All speakers with step-down transform-
ers
(rated for 70V systems) are connected to this output.
Other Output Types
(25V, 16- and 8-ohm)
There are a number of other standard speaker imped-
ances that Bogen amplifiers can be connected to.
These outputs provide the correct speaker signal level
for different configurations of low-impedance speakers.
The lower voltage (25V) output is provided on many
Bogen amplifiers for use in paging installations that
require a speaker voltage of less than 70V to meet
building code requirements.
Direct Output
Direct outputs are used with low-impedance speakers.
These outputs have an exceptional low frequency (bass)
response, providing the fuller sound that low-imped-
ance speakers can reproduce. Certain Bogen amplifiers,
designed for general purpose sound reinforcement
applications, include this feature which allows the step-up
output transformer to be bypassed for direct connection
to the power amplifier’s output.
Step-Down Transformer
70V paging speakers have a step-down transformer,
which is used to convert the high-voltage/low-current
amplifier signal of the central paging amplifier to the low-
voltage/high-current signal that speakers use.
Taps
The primary side of the step-down transformer (the
side that connects to the amplifier) has a number of
connections (called taps or power taps) that can be
used to select the peak power the speaker will con-
sume from the amplifier.
Why Taps?
The selection of the power tap has an effect on both
the amplifier power needed for the system and the
volume of the speaker. The more power a speaker
consumes, the louder the sound from the speaker.
By tapping speakers for lower power in quiet areas and
for higher power in noisier areas, the sound level
of the paging system can be controlled and balanced.
It is important that speakers be tapped correctly for the
area that they will be used in. Setting all the speakers for
the same power regardless of the amount of noise in
different areas will cause balance problems. If the
amplifier is adjusted to produce adequate paging levels
in the noisy areas, the paging levels in the quiet areas
will be too loud or vice versa. Selecting the proper tap set-
ting is not difficult, but it does require knowing the level of
ambient noise in different areas. (See Sound Pressure Levels
Chart on page 77.) It is always better to use the next high-
est wattage tap if there is any doubt about the speaker
being sufficiently loud for the area.
Of course, the best way to determine how effectively a
system covers an area is to test it. Never install a paging
system and leave the site without testing it. Sound adjust-
ments or additional speakers may be needed. Some
paging equipment, such as Bogen’s PCM2000, UTI1,
and UTI312 paging interfaces include a test tone that is sent
to all speakers in the system so installers can check the
system installation. For other systems, the installer
can have pages made while the installer walks the area
to listen for appropriate sound levels and uniform coverage of
the system to find out if and where adjustments need
to be made, and to make sure that all speakers are
properly connected.
Easy DesignWithout Taps
To make designing paging systems as easy as possible,
Bogen offers a line of Easy Designspeakers. These
speakers do not require tapping and allow for on-the-fly
adjustment of speaker paging levels. All the information that
is needed to design a complete system are the
dimensions of the different paging areas and the type of
environment. With this basic information, you can use the
Easy Design speaker line to quickly design a robust,
professional, and powerful paging system. (See pages
15-21 for more information.)

SYSTEM DESIGN GUIDE
WHAT MAKES A 70V SPEAKER?
AMPLIFIER OUTPUT TYPES
Auxiliary Input (AUX)
The Auxiliary input is the most common type of input
used in paging. This input is designed to connect to most
music sources, such as a CD player or tuner. Usually the
connector for such an input is a Phono jack (also called
an RCA jack). It connects to other equipment using stan-
dard audio cables.
The AUX input has an outer connection that is directly con-
nected to the equipment’s ground and a center connec-
tion that is the “hot” input. AUX inputs, sometimes
referred to as Hi-Z or high-impedance inputs, have a high
input impedance so that they won’t put too much of a load
on the source equipment’s output. This type of input is
“unbalanced”. You must use shielded cable with this type
of input in order to avoid getting noise induced into the
system.
Normally, connections between source equipment and the
amplifier’s AUX input should not be too long, about 6 feet.
The problem with long connections is that the cable acts
like an antenna, picking up any electrical noise in the area.
The longer the cable, the more noise that is picked up.
Telephone Input (TEL)
The TEL Input is so named because it was designed to be
compatible with page port outputs of telephone systems.
The TEL input is a 600-ohm transformer-coupled input that:
matches the impedance of the telephone port to provide
proper interfacing
electrically isolates the amplifier from the PBX
or Key System
provides a balanced input with a great deal of
noise immunity
Bogen’s TEL inputs do not have to be shielded, but it is al-
ways a good idea to provide more noise immunity (nor-
mally a ground terminal is available on the input for the
shield connection). Higher noise immunity allows the am-
plifier to be located much farther away from the source
equipment than what an unbalanced input will allow.
The input transformer is not designed to pass loop current
from a telephone line. Any time you want to connect to a
telephone station or trunk port, you will need to use a tele-
phone interface module like the TAMB2, which converts
the telephone signal into a “dry” audio signal compatible
with the amplifier’s TEL input.
Microphone Input (MIC)
The traditional paging amplifier input is the Microphone
input. MIC inputs were the primary announcement source
until connection to the telephone system became possible.
MIC inputs are still used in public address applications today.
When connected properly, a microphone can be hundreds
of feet away from the amplifier and still provide clear, quiet
audio.
MIC inputs are the most sensitive of all the amplifier in-
puts and tend to pick up the stray electrical noise in an
area. To combat the noise pickup problem, MIC inputs
are balanced. Just like TEL inputs, the balancing of the
input provides a high level of noise immunity. MIC inputs
are also made to have a fairly low input impedance,
which makes it difficult for electrical noise to get in-
duced. The low impedance effectively keeps down noise,
which makes its signal level smaller.
Microphone cable is always shielded. The input requires
three connections – two for the balanced signal and one for
the shield ground. You can reverse the balanced signal
leads and the system will still work properly. However, if you
mis-wire the ground connections, the amplifier can become
unstable and start to oscillate. When this occurs, the am-
plifier may heat up enough to cause its protection
circuits to shut it down or it may produce very distorted
sound.

SYSTEM DESIGN GUIDE
DESIGNING 70V SYSTEMS
AMPLIFIER SELECTION
Self-Amplified Paging Systems
consist of:
Self-Amplified Speakers each contain an individual, built-in,
miniature amplifier that drives the speaker directly. Each
speaker requires 4 wires. Two wires supply the raw 24V DC
voltage to power the speaker’s internal amplifier and another
2 wires supply the low-level audio paging signal to the ampli-
fier’s input. All amplified speakers contain volume controls to
adjust output level.
A Power Supply or multiple power supplies provide the raw
24V DC voltage that will power the amplifier built in to each
self-amplified speaker. Several power supplies can be
located in convenient areas in the facility.
• An Interface Device that connects the paging system to back-
ground music sources and the telephone system and supplies
a telephone level audio paging signal to all the speakers in the
system. (Depending on the telephone system and number of
speakers in the system, an interface device may not be needed.)
A self-amplified system can be expanded by adding extra speak-
ers and power supplies as required. They are extremely scala-
ble due to the fact that each speaker is an amplifier unto
itself. It is also easy to connect additional power supplies
where needed to power the speakers. In some instances
there may not be sufficient audio signal level available for the
speaker’s input. In these instances, a small buffer can be in-
stalled inline to boost the signal level.
Self-amplified speakers can also be used to expand 70V paging
systems in cases where the added speakers would overload an
existing central 70V amplifier. The same buffer that is used to
boost signal level can be used to reduce the large 70V speaker
signal to a level that is compatible with the input of
self-ampli-
fied speakers. A suitable power supply can be located
near the
expansion speakers to power their internal amplifiers. This ap-
proach can be used instead of replacing the central 70V ampli-
fier with a larger one to handle the extra speakers.
Convenient System Expansion
Self-Amplified paging systems are made up of equipment
that consume or provide operating current. To operate
properly, the system needs to provide at least as much
24V current as it consumes.
Each product has a Current Units number. This number is

Understanding Current Units
Low Signal Levels Prevent Crosstalk
In certain installations it may be desirable to use conductors
in an existing telecommunication cable to deliver paging to dif-
ferent floors or areas in a facility. 70V amplifier signals would
not be appropriate to run in the same cable with analog tele-
phone signals since their high level could cause crosstalk in
the other telephone circuits in the cable. Because the audio
signal levels supplied to the inputs of the amplified speakers
are similar in level to analog telephone levels, there will be no
crosstalk of the paging system in the telephone lines.
The raw 24V DC power needed by the self-amplified speaker
can also be carried in the telecom cable since it contains no
interfering signals, but care must be exercised to make sure
the length of cable will not cause too much voltage to be lost
in the cable. (See Page 75 for more information.)
Self-amplified speakers can be very cost effective in small
systems since they provide scalability in small increments.
The centralized amplifiers in 70V systems are typically avail-
able in set output power level steps that start at 6 or 10 watts
and increment by 10 watts or more from model to next higher
powered model. In small applications that require only a few
watts of paging, the extra power capability of the 70V ampli-
fiers may not be an advantage due to the higher cost associ-
ated with the amplifier’s extra power, especially if it will not be
used in the future.
Self-amplified systems can be designed with much smaller out-
put level power steps so that only the necessary audio power
is installed in the facility. This can result in a lower cost of
equipment especially where the desired power level is con-
siderably less than the smallest applicable 70V amplifier out-
put level.

SYSTEM DESIGN GUIDE
WHAT IS A SELF-AMPLIFIED SYSTEM?
WHY USE SELF-AMPLIFIED TECHNOLOGY?
Built-In Amplifier
As the name suggests, all self-amplified speakers contain their
own built-in, miniature amplifier. These amplifiers range in size
from 1 watt, which are used on cone speakers, up to 30 watts,
which are used on the SAH30 horn speakers.
Bogen’s latest line of self-amplified horns use a revolutionary digital
switching amplifier. Unlike conventional analog amplifiers, this
advanced technology produces very little heat when it operates.
It produces so little heat that all it needs to dissipate the waste
heat are the copper interconnecting traces on the printed circuit
board instead of the typical large aluminum heat sinks. Because
it produces so little heat, it also draws considerably less power
from the power supply. Why? Because it is not wasting half of the
power supply energy it consumes as heat.
More typical in the industry are speakers that employ analog
amplifiers, which produce considerable waste heat while oper-
ating. They typically release half the 24V power they consume
in the form of heat, and heat is a major contributor to the fail-
ure of an amplifier.

SYSTEM DESIGN GUIDE
WHAT MAKES A SELF-AMPLIFIED SPEAKER?
DESIGNING SELF-AMPLIFIED SYSTEMS
The amplifiers in Bogen’s AH series of self-amplified horns are
analog but rid themselves of waste heat through their large cast
aluminum end bell that works as an excellent heat sink, quickly
and effectively removing excess heat. Competitive products using
plastic end bells don’t have this cooling advantage.
4 Wires
All self-amplified speakers require 4 wires to make the neces-
sary connections. Two of the connections are used to provide 24V
DC power to the built-in amplifier. The other connection pair to a
self-amplified speaker is for the audio signal input.
The general audio signal level is the same as what you would find
on any analog telephone line. The input is transformer balanced,
also similar to the inputs found on telephone systems. The bal-
anced nature of the input greatly reduces interference and noise
caused by equipment running in the facility. The use of an actual
transformer provides electrical isolation between the input leads
and the actual amplifier, which protects it from ground loops and
RF interference, and provides an all-around rugged input.
Coverage is 600 sq. ft. per speaker
Ceiling Speakers
Layout starts in one corner of the area. The first speaker should
be positioned from each wall a distance approximately equal to
the ceiling height of the room (dimension A).
The next speaker in row 1 should be spaced a distance
approximately equal to twice the height of the ceiling
(dimension B). Each additional speaker in the row should use
this same spacing.
Row 2 starts at twice the ceiling height distance (
B)
from row 1
and twice the ceiling height (B) from the wall. The other speakers
in this row are also spaced at twice the ceiling height.
Row 3 is again spaced at twice the ceiling height (B) from the
previous row. The first speaker starting this row is positioned at
one ceiling height distance (A) from the wall (similar to row 1).
Continue this pattern of alternating rows until the room is covered.
The spacing of the speakers can be adjusted so that the speakers
are evenly spaced in a row and are more aesthetically pleasing.
Horn Loudspeakers
Desired mounting height, barring obstructions, is 15 to 20 feet,
with the speakers angled downward toward the listening area
and facing in the same direction. Follow the diagram for the
layout of the horn speakers while using the charts below to de-
fine the lettered dimensions for each specific speaker.
Begin in one corner of the area. The first speaker in Row 1 is
positioned a distance equivalent to (1/2 C). The next speaker
in Row 1 should be a distance equivalent to (C) from the first
speaker. Each additional speaker in the row should use this
same spacing. Row 2 starts at the indicated distance (D) from
Row 1. Using the diagram as a guide, fill in the remaining
rows in this same alternating pattern until the entire area is
appropriately covered.
For areas that include high shelving or corridors, speakers
should be installed so that they project down the aisles
between the shelves or down through the corridors.
The spacing of the speakers can be adjusted so that the
speakers
are evenly spaced in a row.

• Hallway/Room
Wall baffle speakers work well with rooms and
hallways that are 20' to 60' wide. Layout starts at
one end of the hallway or room. The first speaker
should be installed 10' from the end of the hallway
or room. The next speaker on that wall should be in-
stalled 20' from the first speaker, as should any
additional speakers required to cover the length
of the hallway or room.
The first speaker on the opposing wall should be
installed 20' from the end of the hallway or room,
thereby staggering the speakers. Each additional
speaker should also be installed 20' apart from
the previous one. (See Figure 1.)
Open Area
The number of speakers needed to cover an open
area and the layout of those speakers is contingent
upon the availability of suitable mounting points in
the area to be covered.
Layout starts in one corner of the room. The first
speaker should be installed 10' from the corner of
the room with each additional speaker in the first
row installed in increments of 20' from the first.
Based on Figure 2, install the next row of speakers
30' from the first row and 20' from the wall with
increments of 20' between each speaker. The third
row would follow the example of the first and each
additional row would continue this pattern of
alternating rows until the whole area is covered. (See
Figure 2.)
Wall Baffle Speakers
The layout of the speakers should be planned prior to
installation. Because wall baffle speakers are designed
to project forward, it is best to aim them in the same
direction, as this provides for both greater coverage and
clarity. You can use the building’s roof pillars or other
available supports for mounting the wall baffles. In
some cases, it may be necessary to mount the wall
baffles on opposing walls. In these cases, the speakers
will project sound in opposing directions.

Designing a system and determining an installation’s requirements are quite simple. After you set up your first system, the
steps will appear logical and soon the process will become routine.
However, before you begin designing or quoting a job you will
need some basic information regarding the site and the end-user’s needs.
Use the Site Survey Check List below to ensure that you collect all the information you will need to complete the design of the
paging system. When you have completed the check list, create a bill of material for the equipment you need for the instal-
lation’s sound system. Refer to the Easy DesignGuide (pages 17-21), page 67 for 70V systems, or page 69 for 24V systems.
Tools Needed (for Site Survey Check List below)
You will need to bring the following tools with you when you visit the installation site:
measuring wheel/tape measure sound pressure meter calculator
Bogen Products catalog Photocopies of Site Survey Check List (this page)
Obtain a copy of the floor plan, or create sketches of any
areas that may require special design considerations (high shelving,
speaker mounting locations, exposed beams, amplifier location, etc.).
A successful paging system depends on more than just understanding the physical requirements of the installation site, it also
depends on knowing which special paging features the user will benefit from and use on a daily basis. These include zone paging,
tone controls, night ringer, feedback elimination, ambient noise sensors, multiple inputs, etc
.

Speaker Wiring Patterns
Because distributed paging systems involve a great
number of speakers and long distances, the manner in
which the speakers are wired is of interest. Deciding on
how to wire the speakers depends on whether separate
zones of speakers are needed, how many lines back
to the amplifier are reasonable, and how easy it will
be to troubleshoot the system in the future.
How you wire a speaker system may require some
tradeoffs. The simplest way is to parallel all the speakers
on one very long run of wire. This approach leads to
some problems. First, the amount of power lost in a
long run of wire may not allow the required amount of
70V speaker signal, or 24V DC voltage for self-
amplified paging systems, to get to the farthest
speakers. Second, if there should be a short on the
wire run, it would take down the entire run. In order
to locate it, you would need to disconnect each speaker
until the failed one is found.
Multiple Wire Runs
A more practical approach is to wire each row of speakers
in an area together and run a lead wire from this row
back to the amplifier. The objective is not to have so
many speakers daisy-chained together that it makes
troubleshooting impossible. Wire runs can be sepa-
rated to determine in which run the problem exists.
SPEAKER PHASING
As the voltage on a speaker changes from plus to minus,
the speaker cone moves from pushing out to pulling in.
If you reverse the polarity, the speaker responds in the
opposite manner.
If a speaker is pushing out and an adjacent speaker is
pulling in, some of the pressure caused by the speaker
pushing out will be absorbed by the speaker pulling in.
These two speakers are out of phase.
In a paging system, all the speakers should be in phase
so that they all push out at the same time. Out of phase
speakers operate perfectly well and will not cause any
harm to a paging system, but will tend to diminish the
bass response in the area around the out of phase
speaker.
The important thing is to wire all the same polarity (+ or -)
connections together. This will ensure that the speakers in
the system all work in unison. All paging speaker connec-
tions have a polarity indicator. It may be a color code, plus
(+) and minus (-) symbols, or a red dot.

Speaker Wire
The speaker wire best suited for paging systems is 2 con-
ductors in a jacket. The gauge of the conductors varies de-
pending on the installation. In many instances, a shielded
version of the speaker wire is used. The shield can be useful
to help protect the conductors from receiving electrical
interference from other electrical equipment in the area. The
shield is particularly useful when speakers are to be used as
microphones in talk back applications (see page 53 for more
information on talk back).
• Two-Conductor Shielded Cable
Two-conductor shielded cable is typically used with balanced
microphones. Two internal conductors are required for the
low-impedance balanced microphones used in paging sys-
tems. The shield is wrapped around these conductors and
provides the same protection against electrical interfer-
ence and noise as single-conductor cable. Balanced micro-
phone inputs provide a ground connection point for the
shield. Without the ground connection, the shield would be
ineffective. Some microphones with push-to-talk switches re-
quire two more conductors to carry the switch closure back
to the amplifier. In this cable, the conductors for the switch
closure are not wrapped in the shield but rather carried in
the cable jacket outside of the shield. The most popular
types of connectors for microphone cable are screw termi-
nals and XLR connectors.
Shielded Cable
Shielded cable refers to any conductor (or conductors)
wrapped in an electrically conductive shield. The two types
of cable most prevalent for audio installations are:
• Single-Conductor Shielded Cable
Single-conductor shielded cable is used to connect external
equipment to the unbalanced AUX inputs of amplifiers. The
center conductor carries the signal source and the shield
carries the ground between the amplifier and external equip-
ment. In addition to completing the ground return between
the electrical equipment, the cable provides a large amount
of noise and interference protection for the center conduc-
tor. The most common connector for this type of cable is
the Phono connector (a.k.a. the RCA connector). The con-
nector’s center pin connects to the internal conductor and
the skirt around the connector’s perimeter connects to the
shield of the cable.

UTP
Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) wire has many uses but is
most common in data and telecom installations. It uses
solid conductors, typically 24 gauge. It has insulation to
withstand voltages similar to speaker wire and can be used
in 70V and self-amplified applications, as long as the thin
gauge and
the associated higher resistance is accounted for.
Also because
there is no shield, the use of UTP in talk
back applications (where the speaker acts as a micro-
phone) may lead to higher electrical noise on the talk back
signal. There are normally several twisted pairs in a single
cable and these can be paralleled to approximate lower
gauge wires (see page 75).

Once you have an idea of how many speakers are to be wired

length from the amplifier to the first speaker in each run in your
overall run length. For each run, sum up the speaker power
and cable lengths.
With that information, refer to the Wire Loss Chart to ensure
that the wire gauge is sufficient to support the power and cable
length for the run. It may be necessary to increase the wire
gauge, split the speaker loads, or shorten the wire run lengths
if they exceed the chart maximums.

Wire is an important but often ignored component of a paging
system. Because all wire has resistance, some of the voltage
at the source is lost or dropped in the wire before it reaches
the target destination. The amount of voltage lost in the wires
is affected by the resistance or gauge of the wire and the cur-
rent flowing in the wire. This is classic Ohm’s law in action.
If the drops in the cables are not anticipated, the final vol-
ume level at the passive speaker may not meet the require-
ment or, for a self-amplified speaker, there may not be
enough DC voltage available to the speaker to allow the built-
in amplifier to operate cleanly, or at all.
There are different charts for centralized and self-amplified
speakers to determine the maximum cable lengths that
should be allowed. In the case of central amplifier systems,
try to keep the system power lost in the wires to 10% or less.
However, less power at the speaker is the only negative effect
larger losses have on the system. Clarity, intelligibility and
frequency response are unaffected by larger losses in the wiring
of centrally amplified systems.
Self-amplified systems are particularly sensitive to losses in
the wire, especially the amount of supply voltage that is lost
in the wires on the way to the self-amplified speaker. When
the drop in the wiring becomes too large, the speakers may
begin to distort or stop functioning altogether. For this reason
it is important to adhere to the maximums shown in the
tables below.
Voltage Drop In
Self-Amplified Systems
The most important wiring consideration with
self-amplified speakers is to ensure that there will
be enough voltage available at each device to
allow its internal amplifier to operate correctly. If
too much voltage is dropped in the wires leading
to a speaker, this may not be the case.
Once you have an idea of how many speakers are
to be wired together in a run, estimate how long
the wire run will be from the first to the last
speaker in each run. Include the lead-in wire
length from the power supply to the first
speaker in each run. Also sum up the CU ratings
of all the speakers on the run.
With that information, refer to the Voltage Drop
Chart to ensure that there are not too many
speakers loading the wire used in the run or
that the wire gauge is sufficient to support the
power and cable length desired. To stay within
the chart length limits, it may be necessary to
either create a shorter run containing less speak-
ers or double up on conductors in the cable to ef-
fectively lower the gauge of the supply wire.
The Reducing Gauge Chart can be used to de-
termine what effective gauge is achieved by
doubling or tripling up on pairs in the cable.

WIRE-RELATED LOSSES
*Use for 70V Speaker Systems Only
The most common way to make announcements over a paging system is through the telephone system. It is a convenient
and readily available live input source. However, audio and telephone technologies are different. This sometimes makes
it necessary to use an adapter to link the two systems together.
There are many types of telephone ports possible in telephone switches. The four types presented here – Page Port, Loop
Start trunk, Ground Start trunk, and Analog ring-up station – are the only ones Bogen recommends as interfaces to
telephone systems. Other port types and specifically digital station ports are not suitable for connection to amplifiers and
interface devices.
The Loop Start, or CO port, is the most popular type of paging interface
to use when a page port is not available or suitable
A Ground Start trunk uses loop current but employs a request and
acknowledgment handshake for making the initial connection
An interface device is necessary when connecting a trunk to an amplifier
When paging, an interface adapter detects the off-hook condition of
the trunk and connects the amplifier to the trunk port through
signal conditioning electronics
When the trunk is released, the adapter detects the on-hook condition
and immediately disconnects the amplifier from the trunk
A pop at the end of a page is typically present due to the large change
in telephone line voltage between on- and off-hook conditions
An analog station allows interfacing when neither a paging port nor
a trunk port is available
Analog ring-up interfacing requires a more sophisticated interface
than other methods
The interface must detect a high-voltage ring signal and answer the call
to start the page
To determine when to disconnect the page, typically two system timers are
used one limits the maximum length of the page to ensure disconnection,
the other senses audio activity and disconnects after a preset length
of silence
Many telephone switches now provide a calling party control (CPC) signal,
which indicates to the interface that the caller has disconnected;
Bogen interfaces disconnect immediately upon detecting a CPC signal
Dedicated audio output available standard on most telephone systems
Can be connected directly to the input of most amplifiers
Traditionally, a 600-ohm dry audio signal and a normally open
control contact closure
Control contacts, if available, activate during a page and typically
control the muting of background music
Some page ports provide only an audio pair, which requires that audio
equipment have voice-activated (VOX) functions such as background
music muting
Paging ports are not always bi-directional like telephone lines
(bi-directionality is necessary when including talk back capability
in a paging system)
Not all paging ports will produce DTMF tones which are necessary
when using zone paging equipment
