ACTi ACS-E1CB-RETRO-KIT-BOSCH-AUDIO-HRN Retrofit Audio Kit
Overview
The ACS-E1CB-RETRO-KIT-BOSCH-AUDIO-HRN is a retrofit audio kit designed to add two-way audio capability to existing Bosch exterior dome installations without replacing the entire camera. This kit solves the post-deployment need for audio integration when initial specifications did not include voice communication — a common scenario in warehouse perimeter security and retail entrance monitoring where two-way audio becomes required mid-project.
Compatibility
This kit is designed specifically for ACTi Bosch-branded exterior fixed dome models. Verify your exact camera model number before ordering, as retrofit kits are not universally backward-compatible across all dome generations. Consult the product documentation or contact pre-sales engineering to confirm your specific dome model is supported by this ACS-E1CB-RETRO-KIT-BOSCH-AUDIO-HRN variant.
Installation Notes
Retrofit audio kits typically require opening the dome housing and integrating the audio module with existing wiring — this is not a simple external attachment. Plan for system downtime during installation. Ensure power headroom on your PoE switch or midspan injector before adding audio, as audio electronics draw additional wattage. Exterior domes in active monitoring environments should be installed during low-traffic periods to minimize security gaps during the retrofit window.
