A network speaker, also called an IP speaker, is a smart audio device that connects directly to your network (Wi-Fi or Ethernet) to stream audio, eliminating the need for external amplifiers and traditional speaker wires, allowing for easy management via web interface, remote IP paging and zone audio with features like two-way talk, and API Endpoint control commands perfect for offices, schools or large campuses with multiple buildings.
Network Speakers for Paging Announcements, Scheduled Bells & Triggered Alerts
IP Paging Speaker
An IP paging speaker is a network-connected audio device that uses the Internet Protocol (IP) to broadcast announcements, alerts, music, or intercom audio over an existing network, powered via PoE (Power over Ethernet) and integrating with VoIP systems for scalable, clear, and flexible communication in offices, schools, and industrial settings, unlike old analog systems.
Network Speaker with API Endpoint
Our network speakers in this category all support HTTP Endpoint commands and internal device commands. A network speaker with an API endpoint is a self-contained audio system device that connects directly to an IP network (like an Ethernet or Wi-Fi network) and can be controlled and managed programmatically using an Application Programming Interface (API).
What is multicast?
Multicast in audio is a network technology for efficiently sending a single audio stream from one source to many interested listeners (a "one-to-many" delivery) without overwhelming the sender or network, using special group addresses (Class D IP addresses) so only devices subscribed to that group receive the audio, perfect for large-scale PA system when deploying Network Speakers to process emergency alerts, or live event feeds where many endpoints need the same audio.
Multicast Speakers
Multicast paging is a one-way audio feature in VoIP and Network Audio systems that lets a user broadcast a message to a pre-defined group of IP phones or IP speakers on a local network (LAN) using a single multicast IP address, efficiently delivering announcements like emergencies or general updates without taxing the network or using individual call licenses.
SIP Paging Speakers
The SIP Speaker is Integrated like a phone extension in a VoIP Phone system, using the industry standard SIP protocol for flexible one-way and two-way paging.
Network Speaker with ONVIF Protocol
Network Speakers with support for ONVIF Protocol are designed for interoprability with a Video Management System and security products such as surveillance cameras regardless of manufacturer. The primary benefit of the ONVIF Network Speaker is to use a speaker from one brand with a VMS network device from another brand, such as Network Video Recorders, IP Security Cameras and software that controls the (VMS) Video Management System.
Cabinet IP Speaker
Cabinet IP speakers are network-connected audio devices housed in a physical enclosure (cabinet), used for Public Address (PA), background music, and emergency alerts in large buildings.
A cabinet IP speaker brings smart, digital audio directly to a room or area, making it easy to broadcast important information and improve communication across large, networked environments.
Horn Speaker
A Horn Speaker is a secialized component of audio equipment shaped like a horn, usually connected to the driver unit of a speaker. Its function is to enhance the efficiency of sound propagation by changing the way the sound travels so that the sound can cover a longer distance and reduce distortion while maintaining high sound quality. The Zyco SH30 Horn Speaker is a powerful sound producer and support outside weatherproof applications.
The Horn Speaker helps the sound travel better. It makes the sound louder and clearer, especially in big places like a large factory, warehouses and outside Parking Lots.
