Description
Deliver one-watt bi-directional one-way paging down both sides of a corridor from a single ceiling mounting point with the Valcom V-1026CW, a white bi-directional corridor speaker with built-in amplifier, built-in volume control, and a 10.3 in. × 10.3 in. square housing for institutional hallway installations.
The Telecom Spot Expert Review
Standard corridor speakers direct audio in a single direction, which means a long hallway needs multiple single-direction units or accepts dead zones between them. The V-1026CW projects audio in both directions simultaneously from one ceiling location, effectively doubling the coverage reach per speaker installation — a meaningful labor and material saving in long corridors where speaker count directly drives installation cost. One watt is appropriate for the short throw distances and moderate ambient noise levels in typical educational, healthcare, and office hallway environments. Built-in amplifier and volume control eliminate external hardware at the ceiling location. White finish matches standard suspended ceiling tile in schools, hospitals, and commercial buildings. At 6.4 lbs and 10.3 in. square, the housing is substantial enough to be clearly visible as a coverage point without requiring an unusually large ceiling cutout.
