The IPD-CM82-BGM is an 8" coaxial in-ceiling speaker for IP-addressable audio networks on the Dante™ platform. It incorporates an 8" polypropylene driver with butyl rubber surround and a 1" silk dome tweeter in a sealed drawn steel backcan with a tuned port. The speaker delivers frequency response of 55 Hz – 22 kHz (-10dB) with consistent, broad high frequency dispersion supplied through SoundTube's proprietary BroadBeam Ring™ technology.

Power, audio and control are delivered to the speaker via a CAT5 or CAT6 cable; connection on the other end is made to the STNet-Switch, which provides 40 watts PoE to each speaker. Configuration and zoning of the speaker is done via software. Should any problem occur with the speaker during operation, it will be reported immediately via SoundTube monitoring software.

Mounting hardware for the IPD-CM82-BGM is included and features SoundTube's SpeedWing™ constant-tension fixed-wing mounting system, along with a 21-gauge steel tile bridge which ensures rapid and secure installation in any drywall or drop-tile application. The tile bridge is color-coded to match the speaker. An optional pre-construction bracket is also available.

Applications

Developed for Dante audio platforms, the IPD-CM82-BGM is ideal for hotels, museums, education, retail stores, restaurants, airports or corporate installations. This speaker is based on SoundTube's CM-BGM series, which was engineered for high efficiency, good musicality and added bass response, so it is suitable for both background music and paging.
