15 Watt Paging Horn
The Commercial Solutions Series CSS-H15 Paging Horn provides excellent voice range clarity for public address systems, announcement/paging, intercom, security, alarm and industrial applications. Designed for demanding environmental conditions, the CSS-H15 is highly weather resistant (IP-65 rated) so it can be used in either indoor or outdoor applications. The wide coverage pattern allows the horn to cover a larger audience area than is the case with many paging horns.
