Valcom IP One-Way FlexHorn, Beige

Discover the Valcom IP One-Way FlexHorn in Beige, a purpose-built PoE (802.3af) powered speaker designed for crisp, far-reaching announcements and ambient sound coverage in both indoor and outdoor environments. This single-directional IP speaker delivers controlled, intelligible audio with streamlined installation, pairing modern network connectivity with a rugged, weather-resistant enclosure. Ideal for campuses, facilities, retail complexes, industrial sites, and public spaces, the FlexHorn offers reliable performance with no local power requirements, flexible mounting options, and scalable coverage. With long-reach cabling options, backbox compatibility, and easy adjustability, it enables high-quality public address and background music distribution across large areas while keeping installation simple and cost-effective.

  • PoE (802.3af) powered, no local power required — power and data travel over a single Ethernet cable from a PoE switch or injector, enabling simplified wiring, centralized management, and cleaner installations across multiple sites.
  • Very high-efficiency design for strong sound penetration with lower energy consumption — enjoy clear, intelligible announcements and background audio over large areas while reducing operating costs and thermal load in equipment racks or cabinets.
  • Weather-resistant construction suitable for interior or exterior installations — L versions include a long line extender for cabling up to 1200 feet, expanding coverage without sacrificing signal integrity or requiring additional amplifiers.
  • Backboxes available for select speaker configurations — provide secure mounting, improved aesthetics, and better environmental protection, whether you’re mounting flush in walls, ceilings, or outdoor enclosures.
  • Easy adjustable mounting for precise coverage — versatile tilting and angling options simplify commissioning, enabling you to tailor a precise sound footprint for classrooms, concourses, corridors, or outdoor gathering areas with minimal tools and time.

how to install Valcom IP One-Way FlexHorn

  • Plan the installation by evaluating the coverage area, ceiling or wall structure, and the location of PoE access. Identify a mounting surface that provides a clear line of sight to the intended audience and verify that the chosen backbox or mounting bracket aligns with your site’s architectural constraints.
  • Prepare mounting hardware and backbox (if required). Select the appropriate backbox option for secure mounting and environmental protection, ensuring it fits the specific Valcom FlexHorn model you are deploying.
  • Connect power and network. Run a standard Ethernet cable from a PoE-enabled switch or injector to the FlexHorn’s network port. Verify PoE status on the switch and confirm that the device negotiates power correctly; check for link/activity indicators if available.
  • Mount and adjust. Attach the FlexHorn to the chosen mounting surface, then adjust tilt, pan, and angle to optimize coverage for the target audience. Tighten fasteners securely and perform a live audio test to confirm intelligibility and coverage across the intended zones.
  • Configure and test. If part of a larger paging system, integrate the device into your IP paging or broadcasting software, set appropriate priority and zone settings, and verify that announcements are audible across the desired distances. Adjust levels as needed to avoid distortion or feedback in adjacent areas.
  • For L-version deployments. If you’re using the Long Line Extender (L version), install the extender per the manufacturer’s guidelines and test the extended run—up to 1200 feet—ensuring consistent signal quality and reliable paging at distant points in the facility.

Frequently asked questions

  • Q: What does PoE mean for the Valcom IP One-Way FlexHorn?

    A: PoE means power and data are provided over a single Ethernet cable from a PoE switch or injector, eliminating the need for a separate power supply at the speaker. This simplifies installation, reduces cabling clutter, and enables centralized management of multiple devices from a unified network.

  • Q: Is the FlexHorn suitable for outdoor use?

    A: Yes. The FlexHorn is designed with a weather-resistant enclosure suitable for interior or exterior installations, making it a versatile solution for campuses, distribution yards, stadiums, parking facilities, and outdoor event spaces where robust, clear announcements are required.

  • Q: How far can I run the cable?

    A: For the L-version variants, Valcom offers a long line extender that supports cabling up to 1200 feet. This extended reach enables wide-area coverage without compromising audio quality, so you can service large campuses or industrial sites with a single device or minimal accessories.

  • Q: Are backboxes included?

    A: Backboxes are available for some Valcom speaker models and configurations. They provide secure mounting, cleaner aesthetics, and additional environmental protection, especially in exposed or high-traffic locations.

  • Q: How do I ensure the best coverage?

    A: Begin with a precise mounting location and angle to target the primary audience. Use the adjustable mounting hardware to aim the horn, then test in real conditions with a representative voice or test signal. Fine-tune the angle and, if applicable, leverage backboxes or line extenders to optimize reach and intelligibility across all zones.
