ACTi Vandal Resistant Voice Down With 18WATT - ACS-ICB-RETRO-KIT

ACTi ACS-ICB-RETRO-KIT Vandal Resistant Voice Down Retrofit Kit

Overview

The ACTi ACS-ICB-RETRO-KIT is an 18-watt vandal-resistant voice-down retrofit module designed to upgrade or install within ACTi intercom and audio systems. This accessory provides robust two-way audio capability in environments where theft, tampering, or impact damage are operational concerns — retail loss-prevention areas, outdoor entry gates, loading docks, and public-facing security stations. The 18-watt power specification supports reliable audio transmission without requiring separate amplification in most integrated surveillance audio deployments.

Compatibility

The ACS-ICB-RETRO-KIT integrates with ACTi intercom product lines and retrofit-compatible systems that accept modular voice-down components. Confirm compatibility with your existing ACTi intercom model or audio control panel before ordering — this is a drop-in replacement or upgrade module, not a standalone unit. If you are adding audio to an existing non-modular system, verify that your installation supports the retrofit socket type and power routing.

Installation Notes

The 18-watt specification means the module draws meaningful current — ensure your PoE switch or dedicated 24V supply can sustain this load across all connected audio devices. If running multiple voice-down units, aggregate power consumption quickly; undersized supplies will cause dropouts during peak transmission. Mount the vandal-resistant housing securely to prevent lever or rotational damage at the mounting point. No additional amplifier is required if the module is integrated into ACTi's native control platform. Test audio levels after installation to confirm clarity — distortion is a sign of either voltage sag or impedance mismatch with the connected speaker.
