Atlas Sound DA-APX | PoE+ Dante Outdoor Weather Resistant Horn Speaker

AtlasIED DA-APX is a weather resistant IP PoE amplified constant directivity high-output horn featuring Audinate’s Dante digital audio transport platform. The DA-APX features a 60° x 40° constant-dispersion pattern across the controlled frequency band of 1.25-10 kHz. The rotating bell pivots in precise 15° increments for exact on-site positioning of projection angles. A triple lock security mounting method saves installation time and provides long-term stability.

AtlasIED Dante™ PoE speakers consist of a speaker, amplifier, control board, and a Dante™ interface. The DA-APX amplifier can produce up to 20-watts RMS of power in single channel mode or up to 2 x 10-watts in dual channel mode with IEEE 802.3at compliant PoE+ switches and 10-watts single channel mode or 2 x 5-watts in dual channel mode with PoE power. Interconnection is via a top panel mounted female RJ-45 connector. All models are compatible with Audinate’s Dante™ digital audio transport platform.

The DA-APX features user configurable amplifier modes, Input EQ and Level Control. All controls are done via the AtlasIED IP Discovery and Control software. Through this software, the active IP speaker can be discovered on the network with the ability to custom name each speaker with a location tag for system management. The AtlasIED control software features an audible ping-me locator making it convenient to physically locate the speaker. System tuning can be done on an Individual speaker or by an assigned group.

The DA-APX ships configured for single speaker use. It can also be configured to Dual mode to drive a second passive speaker of the same type like the APX40N. When the DA-APX amplifier is configured to Dual mode the amplifier power is split between the DA-APX and passive speaker. The secondary speaker output shares the same factory EQ settings as the DA-APX. Amplifier levels can be adjusted separately.

The DA-APX can be mounted in a variety of ways to meet the installation requirements. Incorporated is a base mount bracket that allows it to be mounted to a surface or to mounted to a beam or pole. The base can be mounted to a standard 1-gang, 2-gang, or 4 sq. E.O. box.
