Where should the speaker be installed?

Speaker should be installed:

  1. Approximately 4-ft up from ground.
  2. Within 3-ft between speaker and the driver.

Note: If your menu board is more than 3-ft from the driver, do not mount speaker to menu board. Use a speaker post.

My speaker location requires longer wires. What to do?

For Kit 1 and Kit 2: Most customers found the included 60-ft Avio-engineered wires are adequate. However, in case you need additional 30-ft or 60-ft Avio-engineered extension wires, please visit www.avio-tech.com.

In the rare case that your speaker location requires longer than 120-ft wires, please contact Avio Technologies Tech Support for more instructions.

For Kit 3: A 10-ft of Cat 5 cable is included for pre-installation system testing. Use your own Cat 5 cable that meets your length requirements, up to 250-ft, for your site.

I am replacing an old intercom. What do you recommend?

Take advantage of your current installed wires. Our Avio Wiring Retrofit Adaptors Kit’ can convert existing wires and will make your installation much easier at a minimum cost.
