unit” requirements of all of the speakers being served from the location.
The selected power supplies simply need to provide enough VPUs for the
speakers and horns connecting to the IDF. Power supplies, unlike
amplifiers, are not zone dependant and may be used to power
speakers in numerous zones without fear of cross talk.

In the example shown, let’s assume that the speakers in zones 4, 5 and 6 will
all be powered from a single IDF. The power supply selected for the IDF
location must be able to provide at least 49 power units.
5) If one-way self-amplified speakers are being connected to a V-TCM
talkback station board simply add a V-LPT attenuator per zone. If one-way
self-amplified speakers are being connected to a XP-TCM12 25V talkback
station board simply add a V-1095A attenuator per zone. Add a V-1094A
preamp if the zone will include more than 40 speakers. V-STX one-way
station board outputs may be directly connected to up to 150 one-way
speakers.
6) As in all systems, there are certain wire length guidelines that need to be
observed. Make note of the fact that multiple pairs of 24 AWG wire may
always be combined, or twisted together, to further enhance the distances
shown in the charts.
7) Remember that the power supplies used with self-amplified speakers require AC
power. Be sure to account for AC outlet availability (of adequate capacity) at all
power supply locations.
Valcom One Way Self Amplified speakers are known for their dependability and
longevity due to the efficient speaker matched amplifier design. This along with easy
system balancing via built-in volume controls and the fact that speakers may be
placed in any zone without common amplifier restriction make them the obvious
choice for Valcom MultiPath applications. Contact Valcom Technical Support @ 540-
563-2000 for additional information and design assistance.
