Camden CX-DESPK15-54I External Audio Speaker Station
Overview
The CX-DESPK15-54I is a 15-watt external audio speaker station designed for surface mount installation on access control enclosures and delayed-egress systems. Operating at 24VDC, it provides networked voice and alarm feedback across secured entry points — solving the problem of audio status updates that are inaudible or unclear when door zones are separated or acoustically isolated. Deploy this where you need building occupants or security staff to hear countdown timers, alarm conditions, or voice guidance in real time across multiple controlled doors.
Compatibility
The CX-DESPK15-54I integrates with the CX-DE1200 Series delayed-egress magnetic lock platform and supports proximity-reader-based access control systems. It is compatible with systems using 24VDC magnetic strike mechanisms and 4-door capacity networks. Confirm your specific control panel supports TCP/IP audio distribution before installation. This speaker is designed as an accessory to networked access control architectures, not as a standalone device.
Installation Notes
Surface mount only — requires a flat, rigid mounting surface on or near the access control enclosure. Supplied with 24VDC power; verify your power supply can deliver sufficient current for the speaker load plus all other 24VDC devices (magnetic locks, sensors, keypads) on the same circuit. No additional external power supply is required if your control panel provides adequate 24VDC capacity. Locate the speaker in a position where voice prompts and alarm tones are acoustically clear — avoid enclosure cavities or behind obstruction. Wiring runs from the speaker back to the control panel; budget for conduit if running more than 50 feet to minimize noise susceptibility on low-voltage audio lines.
